What are the real advantages of working with Dropbox in a file manager on Mac instead of the official app?

I switched to using Dropbox through a Mac file manager a while back, and it definitely made my workflow smoother. The ability to see all my cloud files just like local folders, drag and drop between accounts, and avoid constant syncing delays has been a huge time saver. I found a helpful explanation of how this setup works here: https://commander-one.com/dropbox-client-for-mac/. It shows how to integrate Dropbox in a way that feels natural on Mac, and after using it, I rarely go back to the official app except for very specific features. Overall, it made cloud file management much faster and less frustrating.
