I think the issue is sync users cost instances money but does not pay those instances.
That's literally Reddit's argument against third party apps, the reason a good chunk of Lemmy users left reddit is they disagree with that approach...
Reddit wasn't wrong about that fact. One of their biggest problems was the official app had not been able to do most of the things the third party apps could do.
Well the Lemmy web UI is not able to do most of the things third party apps could do.
