I think now is a great time to remind everyone, like sync's developer, Lemmy's developers need to be paid too! The amount of time all the devs put into making lemmy exist, in my opinion, should be worth some of your money. If you can afford it, donating to the people who develop lemmy and/or the people keeping your home instance up will accelerate the incredible growth of lemmy!

Good bloody grief! How did a reminder to support Lemmy devs and hosts get hijacked by Sync fans? Sync is a completely different topic.

Yeah, maybe shouldn't have mentioned sync in my post. I was just doing as a joke though.

It’s a fine segue. I’m just surprised at how many people jumped at the chance to talk about a different topic and ignore your actual message.

Thanks for the reminder, BTW. As soon as I find a permanent home, I’ll add them to the donations list.

Wait wait, what is segue ?? 😂 in my language it means "a wanking session" lmao

[–] CaptObvious@literature.cafe 4 points 1 year ago

LOL! That's... disturbing... in this case. Funny image, though. And perhaps appropriate given how excited Sync makes some of its users. ;>

It means a smooth transition from one thing to another. In this case, using Sync to introduce the discussion about supporting devs and instances.

Pronounced the same as Segway. [https://www.google.com/search?q=how%20to%20pronounce%20segue&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-1-m](link to hear it)

What a peculiar coincidence...

Sync users are annoyed getting blasted with FOSS this and that. Other client users do not need to ridicule Sync fans. Or behave like houlier than thou and teach Sync users how to spend rheir money.

It appears to be hijacked by FOSS fans from what I see.

[–] CaptObvious@literature.cafe 2 points 1 year ago

We must be looking at different threads, unless Sync is FOSS.
