Dropbox links: About error 400

Some of you may have had the error 400 when trying to access the dropbox links from an android browser. It is a pretty common issue apparently, but it's on dropbox's side, I don't know why; but it seems I can't do anything to fix that problem. I checked the settings of the folders and everything is fine, did some tests with other folders, got the same error, even in pc browser mode within any android browser app. The only solution to the problem is to install the dropbox app (and create a free account) to open the links, or use a real pc/mac to access the links. I'm very sorry about this but there's nothing I can do to fix that problem, except changing cloud solution, which I'm not ready to do right now (also because of the annual plan I'm subscribing to was renewed just this month ๐ ). I have contacted their support to know more but I'm still waiting for an answer, hopefully this problem will disappear soon.
Thank you for your understanding! ๐๐๐

As a heads up to everyone experiencing the error, it happens when you click the Dropbox links through the email notifications you receive (at least that was the issue I had). If you go to the actual message that BDz sends through the Patreon Messenger, then the links work fine. The Patreon email notification system seems to do something funky to Dropbox links.
