Oh man do I have news for you...

Your opinion matters! Yea the ads suck but if you like how smooth the app is you can get rid of them for a very small fee. But if you are happy with another ap, Connect, more power to ya!

I think its a good idea. I hope this will allow nsfw to be broken up into better tags to block porn but allow other nsfw topics. Or vice versa.

I pay 150 a month for 20/10mbps (actual is more like 10/5) with a 1.5tb cap. I would stab a baby to get yours.

It appears that it is getting close to a full release for Sync for Lemmy. My only concert is that it might go to a subscription only method of payment. I'd rather pay a lot for a one time unlock or even like a 2 year unlock instead of a monthly subscription.

Im getting subscription burnout and I'm sick of having to juggle literally a hundred subscriptions every month. If it does go subscription based, sadly I'll probably pass on it. Which would be a sad close to a long history of using sync.

No, the colors on lemmy should be flipped to match Sync's!

A monk is overseeing a group of students meditating. He walks around the group for a few minutes and then pulls out a taser and electrocutes one of the students who has been particularly still and silent. The monk then addresses the students and says, "I expected more ohms!"

The difference is that the email protocol has long been established and any new email client is built to that protocol standard. What we have here is an open protocol still being developed. The fear is that FB will force changes into that protocol and take it over. Then it will no longer be an open development protocol. By expunging FB right now before they get a firm grip on the userbase it can preemptively prevent FB from causing damage.

We are kind of in unexplored territory right now. You could compare it to google/MS taking over xmpp but it's not quite the same situation either.

But the reality is that the current fediverse doesnt need facebook to be successful. It already has the users to continue to grow. By combining user pools facebook would have the majority share with their instagram users which means they would have a controlling share of users and would leach users away from the fediverse over time until they broke away at which point fediverse would die as most users would be forced to follow in order to keep their feeds.

This way those feeds never mingle with FB and thus fb cant leech them.

My plan is to get an MVP out in the next 3-6 weeks.

What should make the first release?
