In this day and age it’s more likely that you don’t have voice minutes or SMS quota remaining than you not having internet access.

Exactly 8 upvotes to your comment… Let’s leave it that way.

Hard disagree. iOS UI/UX is sub par compared to Android. Consistent visuals and fancier animations don’t mean that the UI is good.

Non-competes are illegal in California and should be illegal everywhere else too.

That isn’t a good justification to me.

You want developers who spent years studying design and development, to spend months developing an app, to just give that app away for free?

People like you are why more and more developers join big corporations for salaried position rather than trying to make it by themselves in the indie scene. Because they know they can’t make it in the indie scene because you are too cheap to pay for their apps (either by buying the app, or by consenting to see ads)

If your app can’t exist without ads then I don’t believe it should exist at all.

Sync for Lemmy exists as a paid, ad-free version. The ad-supported version only exists for people who don’t want to, or can’t, buy the app.

I don’t think Lemmy search works for anything but communities. You’re trying to use the search to look for a user profile.

Second this

nobs

This made me laugh more than it should’ve.

UI/UX designer here. Wouldn’t mind spending a couple hours of my free time designing a better interface for you. Would be a fun project.

From lemmy.world here and it says I’m your 77th downvoter. I can see two upvotes which makes your aggregate score -75.

I was switching between Voyager, Infinity and Thunder until Sync got released. None of those even come close to the User Experience of Sync. It’s not even the bugs, it’s the interface and the UX.

Literally zero FOSS apps that are even half as good as Sync.

I understand that it’s new, and it is definitely the best FOSS Lemmy app out of the dozens that I used. But it has a very long way to go to achieve the same level of User Experience that Sync has. It’s not even close and I don’t think anything bar a major UI/UX rehaul could fix that.

I was using Thunder last week until Sync’s open beta got approved and the User Experience and the interface of Thunder is nowhere near Sync. It’s a night and day difference, and a difference that would have made me use Lemmy less and less.

The LLM Centipede

The screen protector is mainly there because the inner-screen is either plastic or Ultra Thin Glass™, which makes the inner-screen extremely brittle, despite it being almost always covered.
