I used Unison to sync UNIXish things with my Dropbox acount...
Tried a whole bunch of different things... and Unison is the only one that seems to work okay...
There's not even native Dropbox for Raspberry PI - so forget about Pine64. The amount of work-a-rounds I've seen implemented to around this...
I even tried Owncloud for a little while - but too many issues e.g. refusing connections because of version or SSL issues when authenticating to my own Ownload running on my NAS!
So - I'd recommend investigating "unison"... The only Windows machine I have is here at work - but I've got three x86 linux machines at home with Dropbox working on them "natively" - I just push sync using Unison from one of my Linux boxes to a Linux ARM machine I have on the "edge" of my router - then I can use unison over SSH to pull stuff over the interwebs (assuming wherever I happen to be doesn't block outgoing SSH)... I may move it to 443...
