Not a Dropbox user myself, but this system of counting shared files towards your quota seems pretty awful, and I'm surprised I've not seen more complaints about it. Do other cloud storage providers work this way?

I think Google Drive and Mega do (they definitely used to).

Google doesn't do it as long as you are just adding a shortcut to drive. However, when the original person deletes the folder/file, you lose access to it since it was only a linked to you and not added to your drive.
