I dropped Dropbox and you should too

I am a fan of Google Drive. It allows for awesome collaboration, and, like the author of this post says, lets you put your storage to work. Reliable storage on its own isn&#x27;t that cool; but reliable storage that empowers other applications (Docs, Sheets, etc.) is cool and extremely valuable.<p>The author says: &quot;But as competitors have built elaborate offerings where you can put all that storage to work, Dropbox has kind of stagnated.&quot;<p>Or maybe I and the author are just gaga for Google and blind to what Dropbox truly offers.

My ironic reason for moving from Dropbox to Google Drive: I really wanted to try a 3rd party app that only offered Dropbox as a storage solution, but my Dropbox was full. So I moved everything out and now use Dropbox with a free account solely for 3rd party apps.<p>This is but one data-point, but perhaps 3rd party app storage and general file storage are features that don&#x27;t complement each other at all.

I really tried to use Dropbox, but never got hooked.<p>I share most of my stuff by Git or email.
