Lol. You go ahead and pay for no-ads on a non-ad platform and call other babies. At least one of us doesn’t have the intelligence of a baby, and you don’t know who.

Get off your ass and help (or learn) instead of complain. It’s open source, so many resources. Better than (edit: yeah) supporting ads (or paying to get them removed which is still supporting ads).

I wouldn’t if the dev gave me some attention.

Even more people can’t get Linux to run.

I use even more! (j/k)

80% of people using Android.

Contributing doesn’t make anyone a lesser human.

You gonna do that iPhone crap now just because of $tync?

Exactly. And with it, it brought an army of ad-loving nuggets (from Reddit I’d say by the way they reply so defensive to me, just look at the downvotes).

If instead they could appreciate and donate some of their hard earned money to all the devs of those instances… Instead of getting rid of ads on an non-ad platform (yeah, that’s dumber than Trump).

I’m 99% sure this army has been bought by Stync to promote their app. They’re making 100$ of those subscriptions. An army like this doesn’t cost much in comparison.

I’m not crying. Just pointing out the hypocrisy of paying to get rid of ads on an (previously) ad-free platform. Pretty damn sure who to blame for that crap.

I’ve been on open source since the early 90s. I know damn well how people make money off of it and who makes money off of it.

I support none of it if it starts including tracking and ads. It goes against the whole mindset. Google fanboys love it though.

If you think more ads is the solution that’s good for you. Ads are society’s cancer, so I have little choice other than to block it. (Paying to get rid of ads perpetuates the idea that ads are profitable. That’s up to you.)

Lemmy doesn’t have ads. If you have to pay to remove them don’t you think something is wrong with that? Why not pay for the community and useful features instead?

The irony.

Like $ync. People need to eat!!

I’m sorry you have to deal with that. My mom is like that too.

You love paying for the trackers, I love the downvotes.

Because there wouldn’t be a Sync if it wasn’t for opensource. Sync is piggybacking off of opensource.

It just adds ads that you can pay for to have it removed. Sync is piggybacking on the opensource devs.

I know that. That’s why people complain about it.
