Appreciation post for Liftoff not collecting user data or injecting ads. (lemm.ee)

I was looking forward to trying Sync today now that it's live, but my enthusiasm was immediately dampened after seeing the "Data Safety" section on the Google Play store.

Liftoff has been great, and want to say thanks for making an awesome app. This will continue to be my daily driver.

Edit: for clarity, because the post got way bigger than I expected.

Sync looks like a fantastic app, and the dev/s should charge whatever they feel is fair for their efforts, even if that's through the usual ads + ad tracking.

My intent was just to post here in /c/Liftoff to thank the Liftoff devs for managing to somehow offer an awesome app without any of that.

Well the years of work is literally that. Sync for lemmy is based on sync for reddit base. Or so it seems

Yes, just trying to say the years can actually be felt, and it's an almost unfair advantage, but fantastic for users. Also yes, it's indeed a full replica with all the features of Sync for Reddit, incredible for day one. Boost will probably have similar advantages.
