Don't get me started on twitch subs. Supporting a creator you like is fine, but spending 100s of dollars on gift subs is so stupid.

You don't have to explain if you can't! Don't feel bad. Supporting yourself should definitely come first. Hope you are doing alright.

You may have misunderstood, I was saying along with supporting the sync dev, the backend that powers sync was made by very different developers. Their work powers lemmy as a whole. If you can, you can support them by donating using this link: join-lemmy.org/donate

Ah, that makes sense. In my case though, I used to never post on Reddit but on Lemmy I feel good contributing to this community. I hope a lot of the other Reddit refugees who lurked feel the same way

Floatplane gang rise up

Yeah, maybe shouldn't have mentioned sync in my post. I was just doing as a joke though.

There forum is down from so many people posting. Crazy. The internet is so unstable right now, first with twitter, then reddit, and now a massive youtube company.

It's actually not that complicated. Lemmy just works like email. You can use different email providers (lemmy calls them instances) like gmail.com or yahoo.com and they work together. What you call subreddits is called communities and they are managed by a instance. If one instance does something that you don't like, you can use another. They all work independently but exchange data. If you have any questions see this. Hope this helps

You can comment, just not post

I wouldn't count on it, it's not that mainstream yet. But if they do it, Emily would be the perfect host

Dan! I kinda wish he gets put in an LTT video, but for now, Shortcircuit Dan is a great way to start my morning. Other than that, we need more Yvonne and Sarah!

Same! That thing is so useful.

I see your point. My bad. Just don't like how people are trying to make us seem like we are the bad guys for using sync

Congrats on your promotion to a 9! You earned it (by commenting).

What was the original post?

At least we aren't using reddit! Anyway it doesn't affect you what app I'm using. As long as I support my lenmy instance everything will be fine. Relax

Sync is a mobile app, but you can sign in to lemmy by going to your instance's website (for you it would be lemmy.world). Remember, sync is only a way to view lemmy, it doesn't power lemmy

What's the difference between kbin and lemmy?
