Dropbox links temporarily down
Added 2021-11-02 03:25:03 +0000 UTCHey guys! It seems the links to each of my Dropbox folder has been suspended due to excessive traffic. Apparently, way to many people have been downloading the folders to prompt such an unwarranted ban. As a result, Dropbox have temporarily put a timeout on public links.
The suspension lasts for 24 hours, and I am not able to find a way around it. This is pretty new and unexpected, but it seems I will have to make some adjustments to avoid any future suspensions
Once again, I apologize for the inconvenience, and I will see to it that the links are once again functional. If this continues to happen in the future, I will be dropping Dropbox for a better file-sharing service.

2021-11-02 06:51:42 +0000 UTCI’m guessing this was because the recent Dropbox file size was pretty big compared to the last ones? Sucks how that resulted in a suspension tho.

2021-11-02 03:57:26 +0000 UTCWeird right?? Apparently, there is a 200gb download limit per day, and apparently exceeding the limit causes a suspension of public links. If another suspension happens, the ban duration is longer That's an incredibly flawed system, considering the price for each plan and what Dropbox was designed for.
