I really don't get the hate. Use whatever TF you want to and makes you happy. JFC.

The hate would stem from the utter spam of every possible fucking instance with "Hey, Sync is out and the fucking best!! Spend your money!"

Almost like people are excited about it

I like that people are excited about it. I like that people are excited about FOSS. I hate all the posts that try to tell people that one is better than the other.

The issue comes down to not everyone wanting to see the same content. I use sync and don't care about seeing posts for it. Upvote, hide read, move on.

But if you don't care about sync it can be understandably annoying. Everyone has different preferences

Paying for a product is not a bad thing, but yeah obviously there are issues with something not being FOSS...

Proprietary and FOSS software both have a place, otherwise I would like to ask anyone against proprietary software for bank statements of FOSS donations or "Can you make a better one free".

There isn't a lot of great FOSS software just because there isn't much funding... Regardless, I am on the same page, that I'd much rather use FOSS software.

Almost like they could all get excited in a mega thread... We did it for Musk spam.

That's their prerogative, I still find it obnoxious.
