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!

If you want to use Sync, be my guest, I'm glad you've found an app you like. I genuinely don't care what app anyone uses. Also, if you want to share your love of an app with others, feel free to do that too.

But - and try to hear this - hijacking a thread which is about making sure Lemmy gets developed (without which your app won't work) and supporting instances (without which your app won't work) to say how much you love your app is beyond crass.

Interesting response because I was responding to you making the topic Sync.

It's right up there.

Just be honest. It's okay. But don't pretend I made sync the topic. Or that I didn't discuss donating to the lemmy world server (or that I ~~do~~ used to).

I think, however, I'll stay on lemmy.world but stop the donations. It looks like I'm indifferent to its success given the lack of integrity or serious commentators.

For all those concerned with how i spend my money, I found a way to save some.

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. I'm not being evasive or dismissive, I genuinely have absolutely no clue what you're talking about.
