One of the last messages from the developer of Sync had said they were considering making a Sync for Lemmy... The guy's attention to detail and customizability of Sync for Reddit has me hoping real hard for that.

How don't these fuckwits realize this place doesn't want them? Stay over in the trash heap where you belong.

I think the influence on Reddit was deeper than a lot of people have considered. The hivemind was so strong it made it difficult to have decent and useful discussion, even the puns that muddied down nearly every post's comments achieved that end. The amount of posts I've seen of people feeling much more comfortable actually interacting on Lemmy, in my mind, lends weight to how Reddit wasn't a place for objective dialogue. That's why it felt so adolescent, like sitting at a high school lunch table.

A person who otherwise wouldn't be noticed suddenly getting attention they never received thrown at them can easily abuse it if they don't control their behavior with a moral compass, which is becoming less and less a priority. When something feels good, many indulge. When you overindulge, you justify. When you get good at justifying, you can make anything okay in your head. If you don't have a line drawn, it's wild how far people will go... he went way too far and he should endure the consequences.

Give it a Google.

The best part is they told them they have X amount of time to spend the coins, but whatever they buy disappears anyway!

Sync for Lemmy

Until A.I. starts doing the work too and you just sit around broke waiting to be told what to do for your basic necessities.

I tried all the Reddit apps back in the day and I don't remember exactly how Infinity was but just wait a few weeks for Sync for Lemmy and I promise you won't be disappointed.

Cache rules everything around me...

This morning when I got the notification it was downloading, lemmy.world was straight up down. Whether it's true or not, I'm saying it was Sync's release and the flood of new users.

"If the pickings are slim, they'll appreciate what little they get."

Lol my previous comment got deleted. Lemmy.world controlled by a reddit admin?

Edit: legit thought maybe it could be an error but my comment must have hit too close to the mark and was deleted! Lol

Edit 2: deleted comment

The dev said there already will be. I hope you'll support a hard working, singular dev who puts a lot of work into an app and engages with its users like LJD.

You sound like the type of person I wouldn't want to work for... you're here posting so you're interested but not if the labor has to be compensated? Crack that whip, big daddy!

If the steaks that smell so good you're here at the restaurant cost too much, LJD isn't telling you to go to McDonald's with your poor ass... Just slap "dns.adguard.com" in your provider hostname and enjoy a great app?

Here after trying several different instances, lemmy.world is definitely the best for former redditors.
