How good is Rosetta 2 in practice?
Another important question: how long does Apple plan to support/maintain it?
Apple typically supports the prior architecture via emulation for at least 5 years after they cease sales of that architecture.

Re: Dropbox doesn't support Apple Silicon and has no public plans to
#12After the horrendous recent Google Drive update I decided to give Dropbox a try for the first time in 8+ years, and the software quality has truly taken a decline. I’m considering switching to iCloud Drive at this point but I’m not a huge fan of how it works either. Any alternatives I should be aware of?
I use syncthing with a digital ocean droplet. Never experience any issues.

Storage is significantly more expensive on DO, no? Granted, the pros likely outweigh the cons.

Have you given a look into Nextcloud?
I've been running it on my own server and been having a great time with it. I haven't done any massive file syncs or anything. But been syncing Joplin, recipes and documents without issues with it.

Probably. I didn't check. I don't store multiple tens gigabytes of data so it's very cheap anyway.

question about your support levels. for a solo basic account, do you really not offer a your-business-hours chat support function?

We offer high speed email support at that level. It's in-house and fast.

It’s very solid in my experience but does have a memory and performance hit. For something like Dropbox which is running constantly in the background that’s not great.
