GDocs, for one. Every time you share a link, some people can see it and some can't, and newcomers and agencies keep having to ask for permissions... Sure, it's fixable, but again why introduce the complexity when Slack and Jira ALREADY LET YOU PASTE IN RICH MEDIA and handle permissions and sharing internally?

I’ve never heard anyone complain about granular permissions for potentially sensitive documents. However, your “issue” is entirely made-up, because you can easily generate an “Everyone” link in gDocs.
> Slack and Jira ALREADY LET YOU PASTE IN RICH MEDIA and handle permissions and sharing internally
Slack & Jira are for different use cases/audiences, and handle significantly less rich media than gDocs can. However, if your company is shoehorning gDocs into situations where you could type into these other tools, that’s a social problem, not a technical one.
> What does Dropbox Capture add that makes it worth the extra hoops?
Given their positioning and competition, I’m going to assume there are very few “hoops” in their UX.
> I just fail to see the worth of this product...
Honestly, from reading the rest of your rant and misplaced anger, I don’t think you’d be able to clearly see product value anyways.
