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.

Even though I would like to see the new option available in Ubuntu and another linux-based operating systems, we should be aware that Dropbox offers fantastic cloud storage, file synchronization and personal cloud. Selective Sync works fine. Google still does not offer its own client for Google Drive. We should be fair and thank them; because some other companies don't have enough time to update their Qt-based applications, but we are forced to use older versions of their software for months/years before they release a newer version. My point is: it is ok to demand a new option, but please don't use this forum to promote alternatives. Linux-based OSes hardly have a 2% market share and having anything from big companies is a win.
