Well, on my feed there aren't. I do let people use what they want. I'm just pointing out that putting ads (or insane payments) over open source software is a dick move.
Stync is just some front end stuff. If you think it'll help the platform than throw your cash at it. I think it's a farce.
That's odd, given that you've posted comments and many of the highly upvoted anti-sync posts on the front page rn lol - meanwhile I can't find more than handful of barely upvoted pro-sync posts on any community that isn't specifically for the app.
Yeah you've made that pretty clear lol, and you're welcome to think that, given that no one is making you use it, nor are any of their users basing their decision making on your personal opinion about it.
I'd also disagree that a $20 one time payment for high quality software is "insane" but clearly you and I have very different views when it comes to this stuff, so no point in arguing back and forth.
If I were you, I'd just move on and ignore it - spending as much energy (literally doz3ens of comments based on a quick look at your post history as this on not liking something as trivial as a lemmy app isn't healthy, especially since your comments seem to be getting more and more toxic as your "discussions" continue...
EDIT: Just navigated from this comment to my front page and saw this
.
Of the top 10 posts, 5 (and mostly the 5 nearest the top) are people complaining about Sync, so tell me more about how it's the Sync users who are spamming all over Lemmy about their app preferences lol
