On mobile, it prompts you to either "get the app" or "open app" with no way to click past. Screenshot won't upload.

This is worse from several months ago https://lemmy.today/post/8935690

Dropdox and Mega,nz are the worst file sharing service ever made, I don't know why people still using their service and it's infuriating when I have to download from their shitty ass website

    I have used both for many years and everything has worked absolutely as intended and I’ve had no problems.

    Maybe not everyone knows what they’re doing completely? Maybe many people do something wrong by mistake but don’t know it? Or do, but they’re impatient? Or they get frustrated because they don’t want to fix their problem on their own and expect the product to be totally idiot-proof?

    As an IT professional for several decades, I can attest this is the problem like 80% of the time.
