MODERATORS
People care too much about which app you use. At the end of the day, as long as you're happy with sync it shouldn't matter
Unless it should? And we shall bully them? They should feel unneeded there?
They put ads and ask for cash while showing other people's free resources they put their mind to create? While no other client do so? And plenty of people\bots enable them? And call that a pointless argument on fediverse? Lmao.
Their spines should be broken asap, and everything around Lemmy should stay free or donation-based. If it is not, next you see are paywalled apps and instances. No one would benefit from a trend of purchaseable clients but these devs, while they don't bring content, or anything to the table. Their app is useless without others' work, and yet they charge you 20-100 bucks for being a middleman between you and it. It's senseless.
Fuck sync devs. Fuck sync shills. Fuck them all.
Thanks for making Lemmy feel like home, it wouldn't without you!
The reality is it's a free world, regardless of what morality you put on things there are going to be things that happen that you don't like. That's life.
Like it or not Lemmy has had explosive growth because of apps like Sync. Because of them being killed off by Reddit. If it weren't for the drama of Reddit doing that, I and millions of other users wouldn't be here right now as we'd still be on Reddit.
Even people who weren't using the 3rd party apps left Reddit because Reddit's actions left a bad taste in their mouths.
So, morality of one guy charging for his honest work in creating the paid or ad supported app aside, you should be thanking the apps including sync for helping drive so many users to Lemmy.
If you yourself don't want to use a paid app, then that's okay! We're all allowed to respond or react to things how we want, but being incredibly divisive for something that a lot of people wanted and that really is inconsequential is almost universally frowned on.
Just let people do what they want and don't shoot them down for it. More options for browsing Lemmy = more Lemmings = more content.
Much love my dude! We may disagree on this but we agree on many many many more things I'm sure, just because we're on Lemmy instead of Reddit in the first place is proof of that! ✌️
Someone downvoted you for the first paragraph, I guess.
I don't think Sync impacted the reach of Lemmy just yet (it rolled out how many days before?) but it would, maybe. Especially for those who used it before.
I spat acid not because I'm pissed at people who use it or devs especially, but for not seeing any critique. It seems like an important turning point for Lemmy as a community. And no one bat an eye. I acted as a counterbalance. A mad one, and picked some low-stakes fights. It was funny.
Have a nice day, dude\ss.
