Get off your ass and help (or learn) instead of complain. It’s open source, so many resources. Better than (edit: yeah) supporting ads (or paying to get them removed which is still supporting ads).

I never judged the users.
I wouldn’t if the dev gave me some attention.
Like an advertisement campaign you mean.
Even more people can’t get Linux to run.
80% of people using Android.
Contributing doesn’t make anyone a lesser human.
You gonna do that iPhone crap now just because of $tync?
Well, on my feed there aren’t. I do let people use what they want. I’m just pointing out that putting ads (or insane payments) over open source software is a dick move.
Stync is just some front end stuff. If you think it’ll help the platform than throw your cash at it. I think it’s a farce.
Exactly. And with it, it brought an army of ad-loving nuggets (from Reddit I’d say by the way they reply so defensive to me, just look at the downvotes).
If instead they could appreciate and donate some of their hard earned money to all the devs of those instances… Instead of getting rid of ads on an non-ad platform (yeah, that’s dumber than Trump).
I’m 99% sure this army has been bought by Stync to promote their app. They’re making 100$ of those subscriptions. An army like this doesn’t cost much in comparison.
Not what I said. You can write code, open or closed source, and make a living. Putting ads on an open source foundation is for cockroaches.
Yeah, like I started your bullshit. I called it out and you freaked out. Have a nice life (or not, I don’t care).
I never said I was against closed source software. Learn to read before you try to engage.
There we have this “good-faith” conversation. Idiot.
If you don’t stand up for what you believe in you might as well have never existed.
And how is introducing ads and tracking (Google’s stuff) not malicious?
I’m not crying. Just pointing out the hypocrisy of paying to get rid of ads on an (previously) ad-free platform. Pretty damn sure who to blame for that crap.
Bet they do. Because of shitty devs.
The quality of users went downhill fast. They want ads, so we’ll get ads. Everything on Lemmy’s “all” is about Sync. It’s marketing. People love that yes.
Just feel sorry for all the people who voluntarily put in their work. And then some dipshits start paying some front end dev 100 dollars who’s piggybacking off of the work thousands of volunteers put in.
If you think they’re worth it that’s up to you. It won’t do the community any good. It already went downhill today.
Lol. You go ahead and pay for no-ads on a non-ad platform and call other babies. At least one of us doesn’t have the intelligence of a baby, and you don’t know who.
