Tidying Up (Sorry for the Spam!)
🕑 Added 2025-07-25 15:36:07 +0000 UTCHi everyone! You may be receiving some Dropbox spam of me deleting really old folders that are floating on the internet so I apologize if this is happening to you! I am trying to tidy up my Dropbox and free up space for new stuff. (There’s been no impact to this month's links)
Some time between 2-3 years ago, Dropbox had defaulted their share to “anyone can edit” instead of “anyone can view” and I posted links with that kind of sharing. I shared a bunch like this unknowingly and that’s led to this mess, which I just discovered today on my iPad. You may receive spam emails if you clicked “join” instead of “download” at the time.
Apparently Dropbox keeps a copy of folders shared like this, even after I “delete” it from my account. I am going through them and “unsharing” them and then deleting them, which is what you’re supposed to do.
I found loads of these my old folders with Edit Access given to a bunch of people, and some of the comics and tier ones were infested with a lot of pirates in them, which is super disheartening. (I tried to take a break from public social media last December and that made people pirate my work harder so I had to cut my break short. I think a lot of this was from that time.) Unfortunately I don’t think it’ll ever stop bothering me.
So I do apologize for the spam if you are receiving “this folder has been deleted” emails! Trying to tidy up best I can so that I can provide more content in the active folder each month :3
