Bring back the green 'synced' checkmark in the system tray.
In my Windows system tray (next to the clock), Dropbox used to show that it was fully synced by showing a green check-mark over the Dropbox icon. This was really helpfull.
If Dropbox was offline, ...
So... I really did ditch Dropbox and turn to OneDrive. It's mostly okay, but not without its quirks. Undoubtedly, I'd preferred to have stuck to Dropbox.
But get this: today, a week or so after I finally ditched Dropbox, the company emailed me saying that they'd love to have me back, and offering me a 10% discount to return.
No surprise there, I suppose. But get this x 2: I realise that -- even for OneDrive's various annoyances -- I don't currently wish to return to Dropbox. OneDrive is cheaper, and includes Office 365.
What would make me return to Dropbox? Not a 10% discount. Not a 25% discount, or even a 50% discount. But my green tick -- that would swing it. So, Dropbox management, bring back the green tick, and I'll come back. It's really that simple.
