I never said it was bad.

I just don't get why people would use it over alternatives that have more features, are more stable, are free, and don't include ads...

I just don't get the love for Sync. It was the best reddit app on Android like 10 years ago, but so many other apps surpassed it a while ago. Boost was smoother and had more options. As for iOS, Alien Blue and then Apollo were much better.

With lemmy, you've got great apps like memmy and Thunder that are imo better than Sync.

So you're dealing with ads (or paying for closed source software) just to use a worse product that kinda goes against the FOSS philosophy Lemmy is built on.

If Halls of Torment gets anywhere near as much content as Vampire Survivors, it will be my favorite Bullet Heaven game. I just love the Diablo 1/2 vibe and the builds. But it's still very early and Vampire Survivors has had so much new content added it's insane.

Probably more to do with this guy being a QAnon nut.

Of all the people to pirate from, Floatplane shouldn't be one of them...

It was the best Trek we had in ages. Held me over until we got SNW and Lower Deck.

I really hope we get another season because they REALLY hit their stride last season.

Cybersec White Papers haven't ranked an iPhone as the most secure phone in like 5 years.

Pay for it.

When developers actually put this much work into making an incredible experience, it should be rewarded. Otherwise, more andore developers will trend toward F2P, P2W, GAAS crap.

One of the biggest reasons I love Tulsa so much. The Art Deco architecture is gorgeous and I love that the city has embraced it and protected it as part of the culture.

Crazy to think what Tulsa would be now if the Tulsa Race Massacre and the Oil Slump hadn't happened.

For those that don't know, Tulsa was essentially the Oil Capital of the world from the 20s to the 60s. The city was growing incredibly fast and was pulling in money from all over the world.

Black Wall Street was the richest Black community in the world until the Tulsa Race Massacre in 1921.

In the 40s and 50s, Tulsa was the wealthiest city in the world on a per-capita basis. In the 1966, the IPE (International Petroleum Expo) reached its peak. Then, right as the Oil Slump was starting, Houston capitalized by host the Offshore Technology Conference which drew the industry toward Houston. If the Oil Slump in the 70s hadn't happened, Tulsa would've likely seen Houston levels of growth throughout the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Then, even the shale revolution may not have pulled Energy's capital from Oklahoma to Texas.

Anyway, we're doing fine. But Tulsa has a rich history that just kind of came to a standstill for 40 years thanks to the Oil Slump and State leadership refusing to put meaningful resources into economic diversification.

I'm sorry, but that looks incredibly bland...

I haven't had this issue on Thunder.
