What would you be willing to pay? I paid £4 for Sync in 2018. I can't imagine a Pro (non-ultra) version would be that cheap this time.

At the minimum I'd think it'd match 1 year of Ultra (£17). Not sure if I'd pay that for Lemmy since I still use Sync for Reddit more.

Does make for some concern. Unlike Musk/Twitter most federated instance wouldn't be able to fund a legal dispute or ignore warnings.

Upside being some instances will be hosted in more legally indifferent countries and the game of whack-a-mole as more instances pop up. It'll be closer to their attempts fighting piracy sites than other social media, I imagine.

I just try to follow the messages Picard laid down. The two "The Drumhead" speeches are my favourites though.

"The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, we're all damaged."

"Vigilance, Mr. Worf. That is the price we have to continually pay."

I do recommend it. Offers a lot more customisation. The At a Glance is worlds more useful than Google's news section and the Microsoft news is better).

It lets you overhaul the whole layout. I replaced the Google search with a bing search widget which opens up in Firefox. Can also just put a Firefox widget if you prefer.

So nice not having every search appear in a temporary window that disappears when I search a second thing. Even nicer not to have adverts on every search.

Firefox nightly 100%

Being able to use Add-ons makes it world's better than other mobile browser's. I use Firefox on my desktop so it's all synced between and I can grab tabs from either which is handy too.

I have to use Microsoft Launcher because I have a Pixel and the ad-riddled Google search is baked into Pixel's native launcher.
