Need some help from someone familair with dropbox and symlinks
Ugh! Im at wits end here lol. All these years later i finally jump on the cloud storage bandwagon and nobody offers placeholders and syncing outside the client folder is rare at best.
we're forced to use workarounds such as symlinks and while I do have it working in as close to an ideal way as possible on my main pc, im struggling to get everything tied into my secondary pc.
I have symlinked folders like pictures/documents/downloads etc to my dropbox folder which works wonderfully. What im trying to do now is create a link from those same files to the corresponding folders on my backup pc.
This way I have a sync from PC1>downloads to cloud to PC2 >downloads. If i make an adjustment on one pc it applies to the cloud and the other pc and vice versa.
How can i accomplish this? Im half way there but stuck!
