I like a good UX
(lemmy.world)
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'm using Sync right now. I've tried a few different lemmy apps and this is the only one that actually works without bugs. Maybe because it's a paid developers full time job and not just some free side project?
I do wish it wasn't a subscription. Apps are generally a flat fee.
yeah I think I'll go to the ad removal fee. it's expensive but I use it a lot 🤷♂️
I originally did the monthly sub because I didn't have an option and that was the cheapest, it is kinda pricey but it's light years ahead of what I was using
also I'm a developer and I think the guy who made it has probably working like mad to make this, and if it's his sole income and it got pulled out from under him... idk. it's a gamble to not just go get a 9-5 and work on this instead
bro has to eat and I already donate to my local instance.
The dev updated it a couple days ago so you could get Pro / ad-free with a one time payment.
There is a flat fee for add removal, it was patched in yesterday so make sure you're updated
I love Sync but it's worth noting some basic features aren't implemented yet like submitting posts.
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
I wouldn't say it's entirely bug free. There are silent crashes and sometimes your position is lost but it works fine.
