Not hating on open source, just let people use what fits their expectations and needs and stop deterring them with gatekeeping :P

I love Sync but it's worth noting some basic features aren't implemented yet like submitting posts.

    Dev's built a lot of user trust over the years. He says it's coming within the week. The app JUST released.

    The point is, he's already charging an exorbitant ongoing subscription cost and it isn't even finished. I do not understand you people.

    The guy has run a top reddit app for years. He launched the app in beta so people could use it now rather than wait. I have full faith in him, it's a great app and it's basically a straight port of his reddit app to lemmy.

    Comments like these really show you how much of Reddit has moved over to Lemmy. Annoying toxicity and all.

    Wait until the non-technical reddit exiles learn about defederation and start whipping themselves up into frenzies trying to purge things they mildly disagree with or flat out don't like. Just like the good old days on reddit with banning people for participating in verboten subreddits.

    Keep the worst of reddit and Twitter off lemmy, folks. Plenty of platforms for those types.
