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

I've gone through this a few times. When he (and his users) realized he wasn't going to continue developing Sync for reddit, he asked us what to do. We requested the Lemmy app. He's always been super receptive to us and we're comfortable supporting him. He's developing it alone and got fucked by a company trying to inflate themselves to cash in on an IPO.
I wasn't asking so much as begging [for Sync]. I kinda wished all the people shitting on the app for gasp charging money would just ignore that it exists and keep using the web. Or go write their own app that is as good and give it away. (Because it's clearly so easy /s)
Fair enough. There's just been a lot of hot takes from people that don't have the full context.
That's for sure. Yikes. So much outrage it seems like. Idk.
