[WIP] MindTrap [Demo Released]

[Sel]

Uh what

You're not using it right, put it in the public folder and get a public download link from there. Sharing folders with other people was designed to make development projects easier by syncing files, not as a means of release.

Using the public folder and a public download link is a waste of time. The whole point of Dropbox is you can put something in a folder and have it automatically updated on everyone else's computer without having to fool around uploading to an annoyingly throttled and ad-ridden site, and so people don't have to keep checking the link and downloading the latest version. A shared folder which is synchronized to everyone who is subscribed, is an excellent method of distribution; like Steam.

Hi, that is the most idiotic thing I've read today, please consider having some idea what what you're talking about before posting so you can avoid making incredibly uninformed posts like that again!

Here I'll help.

Anyone you’ve invited to a folder can then add, delete or change files within that folder

Anyone you’ve invited to a folder can then invite others to join the folder

That function was designed for collaborative projects, if it worked like you think it does, then sure that'd be wonderful. However, guess what! It doesn't work like that.

I don't fancy the idea of people being able to send whatever they want to my pc, and I don't particularly like the thought of having an update shoved down my throat before I know what it is either.
