I must have been asleep last month when Dropbox announced that their free accounts will be limited to three devices using their desktop and mobile sync app. I've four and if I need to change one then I have to deregister two and add the new device, thereby losing one in the process.
I already have Cloud Sync linked to Dropbox, but I hardly ever change anything on the NAS's copy. It's sync'ed to a folder in my Drive folder and could be sync'ed to my Mac instead of using the Dropbox sync app: at present I exclude this Dropbox folder from Drive's sync task on my Macs.
The issue I'm wondering about: Is having two sync processes running on the same data going to cause any problem?
I'm trying to remember if I have any Mac apps that rely on Dropbox sync integrity for their data files, but I think I either changed how I use them or no longer use them. Maybe I can uninstall the Dropbox Mac app and rely on Drive.
On iOS there are still a few apps I use (e.g. Editorial) that only accept Dropbox but most have added iOS Files API support. I will have use Dropbox app to access local files.
