TL;DR:

Dropbox tells with a very unhelpful popup: "Move Dropbox location - Dropbox will stop syncing in November".

And on the forums, dropboxer Jay precises that starting Nov. 7, 2018, they're limiting support to Windows / NTFS, macOS / HFS+ & APFS, linux/Ext4. They say missing X-attrs support is what guides dropping other fs.

They didn't answer yet if displaying this message to users of common-through-Ubuntu Ext4+ecryptfs is intentional.



Missing xattrs? What?
