This I didn't know. So posting a comment on the microblog will make it visible to Mastodon as well?
They're both Reddit-esque Fediverse platforms, but are developed and maintained by different people.
How so? This post is not stopping anyone from enjoying the app.
Nobody is not letting them be.
How is this meme stopping people from enjoying things?
You'd have to be very emotionally fragile to take it personally like this when someone criticizes an app you like.
In Pokemon, the move supersonic confuses your opponent. However, it only has a 55% chance of hitting successfully. This Zubat is using supersonic on you. Are you unscathed?!
You've moved the goalposts. First, you said this:
I’m happy to support devs. 8 don’t like working for free. Not sure why they should have to. And so it’s either ads or subscriptions.
In other words, if you don't pay a subscription or see ads, the developer gets no money at all. You're using the app "for free."
Now you're saying that it's not "for free," just not enough to make a living. And what's more, you're using a mere suspicion to justify your very confident insistence that we need to "pick our poison," and that a one-time purchase is just not an option.
Basically, my point is that you need to choose what point you want to make and stick with it, because your argument has changed dramatically in the course of just two comments.
That is actually what I was referring to, yes. It is a much better option than a subscription.
No I wasn't. I was talking about a one-time purchase, which is the default option for most products in existence.
I think they make a good point, regardless.
