What Dropbox has been doing to Paper has been so sad to me. I've been a daily user for almost a decade (and Hackpad before that), and their recent move into combining it into Dropbox itself has caused me to almost completely stop.

I get what they're doing... unifying everything into one system. I get it. But I can't find any of my docs anymore. When I go to paper.dropbox.com, where there use to be thousands of docs, there's now nothing.

The app wasn't great, but it was better than nothing.

after they combined paper I got a new folder called Paper docs in my account which had all of my paper docs I'd normally see on paper.dropbox.com. Did you not get that folder?

I have it but most of my docs aren’t in it. They can only be accessed via direct link. The folder is also not accessible from paper.dropbox.com on mobile, which is more important now that the app is gone.

I wrote to support and they told me there’s nothing they can do.

(And even if the docs were in it… now I’m a few clicks away from my docs which is way worse than before.)
