I would guess it was an encrypted Linux filesystem. We went through that. It was a pain to get it switched.

It's not just encrypted file systems that are no longer supported.

Ext4 is the only supported filesystem. No xfs, btrfs, zfs etc.

It was quite aggravating when my shared Dropbox folder on a dual-boot Windows/Linux System lost support. It was the main reason I switched from GDrive to Dropbox (besides trying to gradually de-Google). Now I have 2 Dropbox folders on one machine.
Luckily you can make a tiny ext4 mount for Dropbox and leave the rest of your drive alone.
