Not open source, payment if you don't want ads. Valid criticisms, but it's still the best app UX wise, by far, so the blame is not on the users, it's on open source projects to do better
Sync has a giant head start.
Oh no doubt about that. And I really hope other apps do catch up, having one "best app" isn't super healthy
oh thats REALLY bad.
That's a high claim when tehre's features I want that other apps do that this doesn't, great user experience. Just say that you prefer it, stating it as a fact reads extremely arrogant and might be why some other people are getting pissed.
What features? I want to know if I should want them too, haha.
Marking posts as read as you scroll by them for example, this way every time I refresh the page I see no repeat posts.
Another one that I've seen mentioned by users in some of these posts is that the "hide" swipe action doesn't exist, and it does in connect.
Idk, I'm not saying that the app is bad, it's just that the amount of people claiming that it's the apex of all creation is way too overbearing.
I think both of those exist, I know the first one does, you just have to enable it in settings, and if I swipe to the left all the way on a post it becomes hidden.
I also wasn't challenging you or anything, I just like to hear what other people want to see if it's something I didn't know I would want.
Oh no! People enjoying something, better get angry!
