Not hating on open source, just let people use what fits their expectations and needs and stop deterring them with gatekeeping :P

UX = user experience

    I only used Reddit because of Sync. I don’t give a shit what site provides the content. I want the revenue for the app to go to the UX creator.

      If you are saying i dont give a fuck about privacy policy of company, ideas and believes of company owners and other shit; if you are saying just give me content and better ux, then it seems that we are not same. cant argue with that.

        I didn’t say any of that. I am saying I care about the UX first. I don’t use meta/Twitter/alphabet social products for these reasons.

        I would like to see instances also get a funding mechanism to support them without corporate overlords.

          If you care more about your experience, then go pay to reddit and get an api key, then use some 3rd party app that suits you. Also reddit has a lot more content and more active

              May I politely ask why? Since you can have a lot more content and desired interface.

                This recent trend of people telling other people to go back to reddit over (frankly minor) disagreements is ironically really reddit-esque behaviour, imo. That website was atrocious for gatekeeping behaviours.

                “Our community is not like reddit!” Uh- huh. All of that stuff seems to be moving to lemmy, too.

                Anyways, thank you for not randomly name calling like some other people are.

        I didn’t say I don’t support the infrastructure,and it’s an incorrect inference you make of my preferences. My position is “yes pay for UX.” My (unstated) position is also “yes, pay for infrastructure, but be willing to move instead of being tied to hosts”

        You seem to infer that bc I am willing to pay for UX, I’m against paying for the servers, which simply isn’t true or what I said.
