Appreciation post for Liftoff not collecting user data or injecting ads. (lemm.ee)

I was looking forward to trying Sync today now that it's live, but my enthusiasm was immediately dampened after seeing the "Data Safety" section on the Google Play store.

Liftoff has been great, and want to say thanks for making an awesome app. This will continue to be my daily driver.

Edit: for clarity, because the post got way bigger than I expected.

Sync looks like a fantastic app, and the dev/s should charge whatever they feel is fair for their efforts, even if that's through the usual ads + ad tracking.

My intent was just to post here in /c/Liftoff to thank the Liftoff devs for managing to somehow offer an awesome app without any of that.

I mean it's probably better if the server has it, but it can be implemented client side too. All the information about a users subs is right there in the api.

And it feels like the server devs have their hands full, so features like this could be quite some time.

This sounds exactly like the conversations we have at work. Cries in frontend.

Can you PLEASE not send empty result sets with a next token then?

I mean... That's the only fun we have around here.
