I've been a believer in the posthumous publication conspiracy since the backlash from the show ending. I wouldn't want to hear from the gaggle of fans that think they could have written a better ending either. Leaving "unfinished" works for the estate to hand over to the publisher to "finish" editing seems like a nice way to never have to answer antagonistic questions in a comic con panel ever again.

I only ever visited Twitter by way of embedded videos in articles and opinion pieces where they were linked. Now I'll never visit because I don't care enough to have an account. Great job Twitter!

I switched to Sync after Reddit purchased Alien Blue. I used the free version for a while. Eventually I purchased the Pro version then a short while after that purchased the Ultimate version. I got way more than my money's worth in that app considering Reddit was about 60% of my phone use.

I started with Jeroba a few weeks ago and it was serviceable. After the server updates and rollbacks and all that jazz I decided to try Liftoff. It's a decent app but I am so used to Sync for Reddit that it's hard to adjust. I'm eager for LJ to get Sync for Lemmy out in the wild in a month or two.

I am 99% lurker and I joined a few weeks ago. I've been patiently waiting to see what happens with the amount and type of content after an assumed bump in activity when 3rd party apps go dark.

I was an Alien Blue user for years before Reddit purchased it, then I was using Sync (and will be again soon with Sync for Lemmy). Reddit is essentially dead to me without 3rd party apps.
