Why do you assume this is stupidity? Just because it annoys you doesn't make it stupid. For one, Dropbox makes exponentially more money from a Business user than an individual.
- tedunangst 10y agoIndeed. It's clearly not annoying enough to deter anyone from logging in if they're still complaining about it.
- sdegutis 10y agoBecause I'm definitely an individual user, and not a business. But on every page, Dropbox's website has a box, that either says: Dropbox Business is here! [Free Trial] or Dropbox Business is here! Only $12.50/month. [Upgrade now] No matter how compelling an offer that is, it's completely irrelevant to me, since I am NOT a business.
- grzsrgdr 10y agoOk, maybe someday Dropbox will link you to a public LinkedIn page, figure out that you are unlikely to run a business, and stop advertising that product to you. But until they have that capability, they seem to have come to the conclusion that marketting to everyone in the hopes that you are part of the highly profitable few % is worthwhile.
- the_watcher 10y agoThat doesn't mean it's stupid to ask. Extrapolating what annoys you to the totality of users would be far, far dumber.
