As a user of both a recent OSX and an M1, and using multiple other syncing services: nah. Others are doing just fine. Dropbox is likely being pig-headed about something, forcing them into this awful corner, and they're loudly blaming Apple for it (partially justifiably, partially "if it hurts when you do that, don't do that"). My guess is it's the transparently download when accessed files, due to losing a lot of kext abilities through the years. Apple hasn't blocked applications from changing files or using file notification events, so "normal" syncing things are still running just fine.
