They absolutely should but I’m going to guess no.

Thank you!

Pikmin 4. My sister surprised me with it for my birthday! Enjoying it so far, and it’s very relaxing to play.

Living in Japan for a couple of years made me this way.

This literally happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I even honked the horn and they just ignored it and kept talking like they were the only ones on the road. Some people are just so oblivious.

Seriously, I honestly feel like this is a bad look for Lemmy right now. Like who cares how people enjoy Lemmy? Also, why do people care so much about how others spend their money?

Some of these people don’t even realize they are using a closed source app (connect) and have no problem with it, but when price is introduced all of a sudden people are up in arms.

Don’t like the price? Continue to use Sync(with ads) or use the other plethora of FOSS alternatives.

Funny enough, I’m getting ready to board a plan soon and I’m using sync 😂

Have you tried Memmy for iOS?

Yes I have! Memmy is a great app and it was the first one to reach the Apple store. The development team consistently pushed out updates pretty much daily and was able to provide the most features of any Lemmy app currently on iOS, at least in my opinion.

My main phone is also an iPhone, but it’s just something about sync. Like it’s seriously so fluid and it just feels “right” I would highly suggest giving it a try if you have an Android device laying around that can support it.

That’s fine. In my opinion, I think that would be more of a valid point if there were no alternatives, but as the original post shows there are plenty of FOSS apps available for those that want that.

I just feel like the developer has took a lot of his time and effort to make this for the community, but instead, some of the community decides to bash him for it due to the pricing model and it not being FOSS.

We’re supposed to be building Lemmy as a community but here we are fighting against ourselves internally when there’s plenty of options for everyone to use.

I honestly don’t see what the problem is. If you prefer FOSS use FOSS apps.

I’ve tried every single Lemmy app for iOS and Android, but I can honestly say nothing comes close to how smooth and native Sync feels.

I wasn’t even a Sync user on Reddit so I didn’t understand the hype, but I get it now. On my Pixel 6 Pro all of the other Lemmy apps had some kind of issues, whether that be random crashes or frame rate issues. But Sync is just so smooth and feature rich.

I’ve also joined the sync discord and the developer is very clear on what type of data he collects (He doesn’t, but Google may).

Also with the pricing, if you don’t agree with the price that’s your opinion, but the amount of complaining is ridiculous. He made the app so whatever he wants to charge is his decision. You can also still freely use the app (with ads) so no one is forcing you to buy.

Wow, this is very clean! I never used sync for Reddit so I didn’t understand all the hype but I get it now. I’m very impressed

Welcome back!

Someone get my man a map please

This is actually pretty cool. Feels like I never left reddit now haha.

How about this, what if the millions of black people that were brought over to the states, instead remained in Africa and built it to be a prominent and thriving nation.

If it wasn’t for black slaves building the U.S. one could argue that it wouldn’t be where it is today.

Ahh yes Florida, please teach me how slavery was such a beneficial thing for my race.

I’m sure the millions of slaves that were forced to work in fields without pay, murdered, raped, and were threatened just for wanting equal rights would agree with you.

Obvious /s

Yes! Got stopped by mine one day at the end of my shift going out the main entrance and he just kept talking for about 15 minutes. I was making it pretty obvious I’m off and trying to leave by even putting my foot in the door, but he just would not stop talking.

Now if I see him I just make a quick detour and use the other exit.

Haha. I thought the same thing when I lived in Japan. First time I heard it I was like what do you mean by black companies??

You’re right! How could I forget about the oil companies?

How ever would they make even MORE money now at the expense of Americans having better public transportation?!?
