For the record, it is definitely possible to only sync the files you want to on your phone - it's what I do. And as an anecdotal data point (FWIW), I've been using it since the Dropbox debacle, with a pretty large data set on weak machines and it's been solid.
Having said that, I completely agree with the open source thing, and am waiting for a good enough OSS one to jump ship.
But for anyone wanting to leave Dropbox, I can say at least my experience was a pleasant one (it's really nice to not have to worry about usage limits, or war criminals).

- noxon 12y agoThat's what it does.
- joshstrange 12y agoThis must be something newer then because as early as a month ago I could find no way to do this. That may be failing of their documentation however I clicked every button/icon there was in the mobile app and found no way to do it. I can see now that by clicking the icon to the right of the folder name I can choose to have it "Auto-sync" which I assume means the data is stored on my phone but it's still confusing.
