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.
You are the one who insinuated that I am unironically the worst and that I am part of the problem. If you are going to act like you are above other people at least try to behave more cordial if it’s people behaving like “dicks” that has you riled up.
And my main point of welcome to the internet wasn’t some dunk. It was implying that people here aren’t anymore superior or special over people on reddit. Despite what people back on reddit liked to believe and some people on lemmy now. As I said before. Key to a space having the atmosphere you desire isn’t the individuals, but moderation. It’s the mods holding things together more than the individuals who are just as unruly as any other userbase if not kept in check. As much as users like to believe themselves to be superior there needs to be some humbling in that area. Moving to lemmy does not make them a special group than the people who stayed back on reddit that is a group above the negatives of reddit.
As for filtering? Well I usually have blocked all news, politics, and a whole bunch of meme focused communities over the years on reddit. The default subs like pics, funny, gifs, askreddit, etc. Would you put those subs in the category of toxicity? There are others reasons people block than a community itself being toxic. I’ll go out of my way to block entertainment I’m interested in just to try to reduce chances of spoilers. Filtering benefit to me isn’t just for toxicity, but curation in the absence of algorithms. I can understand the confusion though if your use was only for blocking toxic communities.
I said that people that use the phrase without irony are the worst.
I know thata not much different as im still insinuating that people like that are the worst. But im entitled to my opinion. I wasnt aiming it directly at you. But i accept that it sort of includes you if you meant it unironically. But i dont know one way or the other if you did.
Welcome to the internet is very condescending and i was simply clapping back. Dont put that on me if you started it.
I dont think im above people. Or above you. Im sorry that what i wrote came of that way, it was not my intention.
I also only questioned that you might be part of the problem based on what you were saying aboit not expecting thinga to be different here. I think thats pretty valid and isnt talking down to someone.
I think you are are maybe seeing something thats not there.
Im sorry i offended you. Im sorry i lumped you in with other people who i see as dicks.
