Although I never really used Picasa, Dropbox's decision to shutdown Mailbox and, to a lesser extent, Carousel, was particularly upsetting for me. Although in the case of Mailbox it was more due to a decline in acquiring new users after the buyout [1].
I'm not too bummed about it now as I've found better alternatives.

- mastazi 11y agoThey also decided to shut down Skitch which I use on a daily basis. Lately I've been looking for an alternative (on Windows) and I think I will go for Greenshot http://getgreenshot.org/ http://getgreenshot.org/
- TheWiseOne 11y agoLook into Snip from Microsoft (https://mix.office.com/Snip https://mix.office.com/Snip) and ShareX (https://github.com/ShareX/ShareX https://github.com/ShareX/ShareX) for a couple other alternatives.
- mastazi 11y agoThanks, both Snip and ShareX are very nice, I'm now testing them.
