They absolutely should but I’m going to guess no.

No worries! I was just a little confused when I tried it on my iPhone and it worked.

I was able to uninstall all of the apps you just mentioned on iPhone just to cure my curiosity.

Which Apple device is not letting you uninstall those apps?

Oh I’ve actually been told by fat people that there’s no way that I actually enjoy working out and that I’m forcing myself to go to the gym while not enjoying it.

Guess it’s weird I like improving my physique and enjoying seeing how I can reach new goals ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This literally happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I even honked the horn and they just ignored it and kept talking like they were the only ones on the road. Some people are just so oblivious.

I have Linux on my laptop but I have a Windows gaming PC and I’m honestly trying to figure out how could you not get steam to start? Never had an issue with that before…

Seriously, I honestly feel like this is a bad look for Lemmy right now. Like who cares how people enjoy Lemmy? Also, why do people care so much about how others spend their money?

Some of these people don’t even realize they are using a closed source app (connect) and have no problem with it, but when price is introduced all of a sudden people are up in arms.

Don’t like the price? Continue to use Sync(with ads) or use the other plethora of FOSS alternatives.

Funny enough, I’m getting ready to board a plan soon and I’m using sync 😂

Have you tried Memmy for iOS?

Yes I have! Memmy is a great app and it was the first one to reach the Apple store. The development team consistently pushed out updates pretty much daily and was able to provide the most features of any Lemmy app currently on iOS, at least in my opinion.

My main phone is also an iPhone, but it’s just something about sync. Like it’s seriously so fluid and it just feels “right” I would highly suggest giving it a try if you have an Android device laying around that can support it.

That’s fine. In my opinion, I think that would be more of a valid point if there were no alternatives, but as the original post shows there are plenty of FOSS apps available for those that want that.

I just feel like the developer has took a lot of his time and effort to make this for the community, but instead, some of the community decides to bash him for it due to the pricing model and it not being FOSS.

We’re supposed to be building Lemmy as a community but here we are fighting against ourselves internally when there’s plenty of options for everyone to use.

I honestly don’t see what the problem is. If you prefer FOSS use FOSS apps.

I’ve tried every single Lemmy app for iOS and Android, but I can honestly say nothing comes close to how smooth and native Sync feels.

I wasn’t even a Sync user on Reddit so I didn’t understand the hype, but I get it now. On my Pixel 6 Pro all of the other Lemmy apps had some kind of issues, whether that be random crashes or frame rate issues. But Sync is just so smooth and feature rich.

I’ve also joined the sync discord and the developer is very clear on what type of data he collects (He doesn’t, but Google may).

Also with the pricing, if you don’t agree with the price that’s your opinion, but the amount of complaining is ridiculous. He made the app so whatever he wants to charge is his decision. You can also still freely use the app (with ads) so no one is forcing you to buy.

Wow, this is very clean! I never used sync for Reddit so I didn’t understand all the hype but I get it now. I’m very impressed

15 years for me. Joined Reddit right when I got out of high school… crazy to think about.

Welcome back!

Someone get my man a map please

This is actually pretty cool. Feels like I never left reddit now haha.

How about this, what if the millions of black people that were brought over to the states, instead remained in Africa and built it to be a prominent and thriving nation.

If it wasn’t for black slaves building the U.S. one could argue that it wouldn’t be where it is today.

Ahh yes Florida, please teach me how slavery was such a beneficial thing for my race.

I’m sure the millions of slaves that were forced to work in fields without pay, murdered, raped, and were threatened just for wanting equal rights would agree with you.

Obvious /s

You’re right and I get it. When I was younger I use to think I needed to switch multiple lanes to pass cars to get to my destination faster.

I didn’t drive aggressively and cut people off, but I noticed most of the time you maybe only save a minute or two on your trip, so honestly it’s not even worth it.

Now I’m just fine with cruising, going the speed limit, and reaching my destination safely. It’s much more relaxing.

Sigh I miss using the train when I lived in Japan.
