It seems that you think something can't be bad if there's something else that's worse.

You bringing up things that doesn't even share a similar context is either plain stupid or very deliberate.

I'm voting for the latter.

By the way... You do agree that the Russian aggression against Ukraine is caused by Russia attacking Ukraine and that Russia have a deliberate strategy of killing civilians in Ukraine, right?

What statement do you mean is untrue?

In Sweden, where I live, the equivalent of FDA (I guess) says that firm cheese is fine too eat as long as you cut off 2 cm from the moldy part.

Unfortunately this is coming and a majority of people are going to happily step on to the train.

Think of it like this: 99% of all apps could have been just web apps in a mobile browser (Hell, a majority essentially are just a wrapped web app) but because of companies offering more/better functionality people choose to use the app.

All that needs to happen is sites starting require DRM functionality for "security reasons" so that the end user can enjoy more features.

A majority of end users don't understand the implications when making choices like these.

Care to elaborate on how Sync is piggybacking off on open source?

I've been jumping around trying 4-5 clients since the Reddit Exodus and all of them had some really anything bug. Voyager is the one that in my opinion is the best one feature and stability wise. However, voyager if giving me one big headache in the form of going totally black if I swap over to fx read an email. I don't care if you're my Firefox needing things up. I'm not going to opt in even more in Google Surveillance just because Voyager is open source.

Sync for Reddit was my whole Reddit experience for the last 7-8 years. I think I tried a majority of the clients and Sync totally wiped the floor with the other clients in my opinion. Both in new features and stability.

I use Windows and several dists on a daily basis. I have an Android phone and I truly like the philosophy behind open source... With that said.... Competition is great. We'll see what Sync for Lemmy can bring to the table. If it is as good as sync for Reddit was the other clients have to shape up and it's us, the users, that will benefit.
