Dropbox is dead, long live OneDrive!

Good news, everyone!

On Nov 7th Dropbox have stopped synching encrypted filesystems on Linux because... well... who cares of home folder encryption on Linux, right? That kind of decision of Dropbox reminded me that I have active OneDrive 1TB subscription with my Office365 home license, so I've decided to drop the Dropbox completely for personal documents use and leave it in free tier only as a private/public file exchange.

And it turns out that there's one extremely useful open source (GPLv3!) tool that supports synchronization with OneDrive on Linux - see the project's GitHub page here: https://github.com/skilion/onedrive
