    Lemmying from Sync right now and it brings a tear to my eye. I don’t think anything other than Sync would have made Lemmy feel “right” to me. And now it does.

      He just added an £18.99 one off charge to remove ads as well. Instabuy for me. Just brilliant.

        At first it felt a little steep to me, but then I remembered I’ve been using Sync since 2012.

        Insta buy indeed lol. Probably double paid to remove ads and get ultra but that’s alright, it’s for a good cause and LJ deserves it.

        Same!

        The second that I opened the interface it was like being greeted by an old friend.

        I totally get the subscription fatigue that people get. Work gave me an iPad and I was gobsmacked that a simple SSH app using open source libraries was going to cost $6.00/mo. Hell with that.

        But in this instance, I feel like the subscription is worth it. The dev has proven that he is extremely active. Weekly updates on the beta channel for the original Reddit version.

      I couldn’t said it better myself. After 12 years on reddit, here I am! Joined as soon as sync launched and after some Eli5 of Lemmy, I’m ready for it.

      All tips for interesting instances or give me some tips about what I should check out, or catch up on, it would be appreciated .

      I don’t consider myself to be “Lemmying” or “Redditing”… I’m “Syncing”
