When will online-only files work on Linux?
I need to save space on my hard drive. Online-only files would be the perfect solution, but it still does not work on linux fedora.
When will we have this solution?

At the moment, Smart Sync is only available on Windows and Mac. Dropbox has made no announcement on its availability on Linux. They usually don't discuss timelines or upcoming features until they're reaady to announce them, so we likely won't know that it's coming until it's already here, assuming that it's coming at all.
This posts are from 2018 January and we are in 2018 October, and I found nothing about this issue. There is something on the way or should we assume that it will not be done?
And I'm wondering the same thing about Linux support. I try to bug them every couple months and can never get any answer, not even a rough one. That's what's frustrating. If it's never going to be supported then say so and us ... PAYING ... Linux users will move on and find a different solution.
Still no updates here? I'm happy to upgrade my plan but was waiting for this feature... similarly will have to start exploring elsewhere as it looks like it isn't coming.
Yep - I did just that. I just cancelled my plan a minute ago. Bye Dropbox.
Cancel if you get no service! I agree! I will do so too!
To the Guys at DropBox: You will loose your customers if you do not service them!!! It is end of April 2019 and it is still not on Linux. That is not acceptable! I am surprised how you still can look in the eyes of your PAYING customers when you knowingly doesn't give a sh*t or a flying f**k about giving proper SERVICE if it is not implemented soon I wish you go out of business, the same way you F**k over your PAYING customers.
