I think now is a great time to remind everyone, like sync's developer, Lemmy's developers need to be paid too! The amount of time all the devs put into making lemmy exist, in my opinion, should be worth some of your money. If you can afford it, donating to the people who develop lemmy and/or the people keeping your home instance up will accelerate the incredible growth of lemmy!

Yeah, maybe shouldn't have mentioned sync in my post. I was just doing as a joke though.

It’s a fine segue. I’m just surprised at how many people jumped at the chance to talk about a different topic and ignore your actual message.

Thanks for the reminder, BTW. As soon as I find a permanent home, I’ll add them to the donations list.

Wait wait, what is segue ?? 😂 in my language it means "a wanking session" lmao

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

LOL! That's... disturbing... in this case. Funny image, though. And perhaps appropriate given how excited Sync makes some of its users. ;>

It means a smooth transition from one thing to another. In this case, using Sync to introduce the discussion about supporting devs and instances.

It means transition in English 😅

Thanks TIL

What a peculiar coincidence...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You are? It's quite the hot topic right now.

Sync users are annoyed getting blasted with FOSS this and that. Other client users do not need to ridicule Sync fans. Or behave like houlier than thou and teach Sync users how to spend rheir money.

They are free to stay closed-source proprietary but prople have the right to voice their opinions.

That is not holier than thou.
