Finding myself balking at paying Dropbox’s price hike to $120/yr, made more painful by their change a few months ago to only sync a max of 3 devices on the free plan. That latter change seems actively punitive.

@chipotle Yep. The 3 device limit was my final straw after using them since 2009, though I haven't yet set up some unholy combination of Syncthing/Nextcloud/Unison to replace it.
Technically, you can keep your paired devices, so if you sign up for the trial or just pay a single month, add all your devices, then cancel before you're billed (again), you can continue to use them afterwards.
@digitalfox I didn't know that last part about paired devices. I may go back and re-link a couple before the account downgrades. >.>
@chipotle Yep! They don't advertise this, but they don't deny it, either…
> If you're a Basic user and you linked more than three devices prior to March 2019 (TESTED: or prior to your account downgrading), all of your previously linked devices remain linked.
