ThatGuyGlen is a recent favourite. Great videos on the development of various popular Indie games.

2 old features I liked from the reddit version. Probably going to be quite low priority versus some other things, but they're the missing things I'm noticing most.

  1. The little "next / previous comment" arrows. Worked very well for skipping comment chains when you're already a bit into them.

  2. The little "+#" count next to the total comments to show how many new comments have popped up in a post. Combined with the unread comment dot it made keeping track of new comments on a thread I liked nice.

Only thing I've pirated was a show with no reasonable means to access it legitimately in my region. Hell, I couldn't even access it via VPN because the services it was on didn't accept my card due to region.

Normally of the mind that if it isn't worth my money it isn't worth my time, but in this case I just wasn't allowed to pay them for it. Hardly my fault when they've gone that far out of their way to block me buying it.

Will wait to see how it plays out. Seems that the Exynos 2400 is expected to be less crap then the past few gens of Exynos processors, so so long as it's not going to crater battery life or performance vs the Snapdragon models I'm not fussed.

Stealing and selling their best prototype also means they couldn't send it to a better reviewer to demonstrate it isn't a bad product.

Honestly atrocious behaviour from them over this. Any 1 bit of this would be bad, but all of them together could absolutely ruin a start-up. And all because Linus didn't want to spend "up to" $500 worth of people's time.

Edit: seems like 20$ will be ads removed lifetime but No fancy features.

As far as I can tell this is the case. Fair enough with how long Sync for Reddit lasted.

I saw someone saying there would be an ultra lifetime payment option coming as well, although not a part of the discord so can't confirm that.

Seems good so far, feels very nice.

Honestly forgot how good Sync feels. Such an enormous difference vs connect for Lemmy. Should make Lemmy a good bit better for day to day use.

Only thing I've noticed is that I can only see a sub. Would definitely prefer not to add another sub to the mix if a one time purchase is viable.

Another reason may have been due to the in app purchase stuffing up sometimes. I believe it was a Google thing, but iirc sometimes it would just forget you'd bought pro within the app and start showing ads again.

The biggest pain with premium is how prevalent in video ads are. Not fun to pay and still see ads anyway.

I wouldn't mind if they were right at the start or at the end. But they're always either 30 - 60 seconds in or in the middle of the video and so many of them are over a minute.

Glad to see they're thinking that as well. The way Lemmy was explained it didn't sound like it had a chance, but the user experience is quite a bit simpler then people made it out to be.
