Aside from the polish, it's also the familiar UX that many of us have used for a decade. It just feels familiar & right now!
Ehh ill give it a look. I generally avoid apps that are just a website.
It just adds ads that you can pay for to have it removed. Sync is piggybacking on the opensource devs.
What a terrible way of looking at it. UX matters a lot when youβre using a platform, and some people are willing to tolerate the occasional ad if they get a UX they like and are familiar with.
Gross, I was reading through this thread thinking about checking Sync out, but the idea of wilfully adding ads is so disgusting to me. The browser works well for me anyway, I don't think I'll end up getting an app unless it does something outstanding.
You love paying for the trackers, I love the downvotes.
Cry more
I'm not crying. Just pointing out the hypocrisy of paying to get rid of ads on an (previously) ad-free platform. Pretty damn sure who to blame for that crap.
What the fuck are you doing on this community of you hate Sync so much?
