I appreciate you answering the question and being brave enough to step forward to do so.
I think what's been confusing me is why so many lemmings feel they need to tell us which UX to use and whether we should value it one way or another...
They'll say, "use what works for you" but...
"it's should be (almost free)." Making an absolute value judgment, no caveat or allowing for other tastes or bank accounts.
It's just bad form. If it confuses them, I get it. Strict adherence to FOSS confuses me. But we can talk that through.
But I'm not going to tell them that they're doing it wrong or that they're objectively valuing FOSS incorrectly.
But that keeps happening to Sync. I appreciate you answering the question and engaging.
This need to continually tell us that we're wrong for supporting the app and dev is mystifying to me.
It's like me telling everyone to stop funding the instance because it's paid through the end of the year. Even mentioning that the instance was/is healthy feels like poor form.
But if people aren't sure the instance will endure, the engagement may not persist.
Yet lemmings have stirred the doubt-pot, too. The instance deserves support. The dev deserves support. Labor, any labor, cannot be expected to be free.
That's my moral line. You may have another one. That's fine. The above is my opinion, not objective fact.
I just don't get the need to keep shitting on people enjoying an app or paying for it.
