Didn't have to think twice to get Sync Ultra lifetime for the amazing value Sync has been in my life the past 10 years. Even paid for previous Sync for Reddit versions. Easy decision. Thanks LJ

Now B is a cause I can get behind...

That's Top-10-social-apps-on-the-Play-store shitware app to you

How do I give more money than I already have to this pig of a dev who made the Lemmy experience so great to me and countless others such that it is now in the top 10 social apps on the Play store?

As a sync user I support this and would like to see it lol

I subscribe to RSS feeds for subreddits that don't exist on Lemmy just so that I don't give them any clicks or ad revenue.

For answers to questions or problems that are only available on Reddit, I turn on my favorite privacy browser, I hold my breath, go to that specific post, get my answer, and gtfo asap.

Like the saying goes, never stick it in crazy. But if you have to, be protected.

Like @skye pointed out, I suspect it might indeed be based on region. I remember another thread where a user reported seeing Sync rated at 3 stars, whereas others reported 5 stars.

Top 6 app behind X (still can't get used to that stupid name) and before Facebook lite... not bad

You are entitled to make any assumptions you want about my choice. I'm glad you have your criteria for choosing the platforms and apps you like, and I celebrate that.

Unfortunately, you don't really know my reasoning for my choice of platform and app, so telling me to go to Reddit based on your mis-assumptions about why I like Lemmy and Sync really highlights the core issue here.

Anyway, good luck to you bud. I hope you have a great Friday.

No, defending FOSS is not what reeks, it's how people zealously go about defending it that does.

But you're right, no need to discuss further.

As much as those atrocious combinations give me the shivers, especially docker on Windows, we really should be advocating for the freedom of choice (even if that choice might be the wrong one). People should be free to do what they want, and such freedom should be celebrated.

This type of comment and attitude is what reeks in FOSS. Really unfortunate.
