i guess because of metadata. an encrypted file has no readable header, which the keepass database file probably has so that keepass knows how it is encrypted.
The Dropbox is just a remote backup container. The backup is automated , gathers files from a few locations, dumps them in an encrypted box and push them to Dropbox once a day. The encryption bit is just for some other files which are not encrypted in their natural state.
I too like to keep my pet Donkey to myself. I love it. 🙂
Also KeePassXC – KeePassDX + Nextcloud + (encrypted container dropbox backup)
Why the need to encrypt on Dropbox? Shouldn’t KeePass be secured enough by itself?

KeePass don’t have much beyond a password hash for testing if you entered the right password or not.
still something that would identify it as a keepass database file, no?
