SamsyIt's so nice to see them all growing, but this is just the truth, sorry.
ReamenTo be fair, this should be the other way. All these apps are the teletubbies because they’re clunky and have major bugs. Sync is the power ranger.
OtakuAltairYeah I’ve used all the apps in this post and Sync is just light years ahead of all of them right now. We’ll worth the 19$ to remove the ads
Kinda shitty to hate on Sync like this for not being foss when the dev never claimed it to be.
It’s always justified to hate on proprietary software
Might be a hot take but it’s also justified to try and make money from software development that is not prefatory
It’s not illegal to make business with open source software
It’s not illegal, but it’s not profitable.
Companies aren’t making squat from happy fans donating a token amount to show support of the software. Everything adjacent to the open source software is profitable (enterprise sales, support contracts, hardware, corporate sponsors/funding, and so forth), but you’re going to have a really hard time selling something to consumers when they can just as easily get it for free.
Sync isn’t some international conglomerate harvesting your data, it’s one dude’s passion project. Guy’s gotta eat and monetizing FOSS is real hard.
No but it contains spyware from one of those
Well worth the 19$ to remove the ads
Sync has gone to subscription payments, hasn’t it?
Profile -> Remove ads removes ads permanently for 19$
The Ultra subscription is for if you want to support the dev further.
Thanks. I hadn’t noticed that.
