On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Dropbox is clearly ahead of Miro.

Dropbox carries 61,045 GitHub stars across 247 public repos, with 29 repositories active in the last 90 days and 2 external contributors on record. Miro shows 843 stars across 45 public repos, 4 active in the last 90 days and 6 external contributors.
