I feel like leadership and vision are lacking at DropBox, so they don't have any good ideas of what to do with the staff they've got.
They should be exploring new opportunities which leverage the skillset of their existing employees, this would diversify them from the effects of OneDrive and GDrive.
For example with AI alone we've seen an incredible number of new file services dedicated to just serving models, and DropBox has totally ignored that need.
Instead they regularly add bitsy, poorly implemented, "us too" features to DropBox which adds friction to common workflows - then provide no way to customise these features away for people who do not want them.
Perhaps to them they see this as evolving the product and keeping it relevant, but their approach doesn't address why Google and Microsoft are eating their lunch, nor does it take their eggs out of one basket.
