Comment by ijeff@lemdro.id on I like a good UX

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

UX = user experience

I love Sync but it’s worth noting some basic features aren’t implemented yet like submitting posts.

bahahaha - all these people ready to hand over their hard-earned and you can’t even submit a post?

Dev’s built a lot of user trust over the years. He says it’s coming within the week. The app JUST released.

The point is, he’s already charging an exorbitant ongoing subscription cost and it isn’t even finished. I do not understand you people.

The guy has run a top reddit app for years. He launched the app in beta so people could use it now rather than wait. I have full faith in him, it’s a great app and it’s basically a straight port of his reddit app to lemmy.

No one is forced to pay

Comments like these really show you how much of Reddit has moved over to Lemmy. Annoying toxicity and all.

We may not like it, but this is what progress looks like?

Wait until the non-technical reddit exiles learn about defederation and start whipping themselves up into frenzies trying to purge things they mildly disagree with or flat out don’t like. Just like the good old days on reddit with banning people for participating in verboten subreddits.

Keep the worst of reddit and Twitter off lemmy, folks. Plenty of platforms for those types.

He worked on it, you don’t even have to pay to use.

Some people have jobs and can afford to pay for things.

To be fair, a lot of those people are Reddit refugees that fled to lemmy.world and were fairly removed to begin with. I’m honestly not even sure why they left Reddit to begin with.

Wait… are you saying that you can’t post using Sync? Wtf.

It’s an early beta so far.

You can comment just not make posts, which is the majority of the user base tbf. There ability to post posts is coming soon afaik

Rules:

Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
