I can forgive using Sync, but Chrome?

[–] runaway@lemmy.world 28 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Hey it could be worse

Posted from Microsoft Edge

[–] morrowind@lemmy.ml 25 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Edge is better than chrome

[–] uplusion23@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It kinda is. Split screen browsing is neat, too!

I find the AdBlocker in Edge lacking and most of the time I still get too many ads

Vivaldi is where it's at

[–] hunt4peas@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah. For those sites, I use Iceraven with uBlock Origins.

Edit: joke ruined, it won't let me put fake html blink tags.

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Edge is just Chrome with a different skin.

IE is a bit too new for my pc

Yeah, weird flex but ok

[–] Metaright@kbin.social 48 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You'd have to be very emotionally fragile to take it personally like this when someone criticizes an app you like.

[–] watson387@sopuli.xyz 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I hear you. It’s not even the site(s). It’s the app used to access. Who cares? lol

[–] Poggervania@kbin.social 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How else am I supposed to feel good by telling Sync users that they suck for not using Officially Approved FOSS Applications For The Fediverse?

[–] boringbisexual@lib.lgbt 3 points 2 years ago

Even if every single person used a FOSS client, someone would eventually come along and tell you why the one you use sucked....with a very long list of reasons why.

[–] mrbubblesort@kbin.social 48 points 2 years ago

Use Firefox bro, it's better

[–] hempster@lemm.ee 45 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What a strange post. Wait until Chrome brings Manifest v3 that cripples all ad-blocking extensions forever then go on claiming "quit and having fun".

[–] drbluefall@toast.ooo 24 points 2 years ago

I use Sync, but I also use Librewolf, so I suppose that makes me the worst kind of person.

A centrist.

Nobody is trying to kill your buzz I am just enjoying using free software and amused that y'all are paying

[–] HatchetHaro@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Many users would pay to have a subjectively better user experience. Sync was originally made for Reddit and had all that development time before Rexxit happened, and therefore, even after switching over to Lemmy, Sync is a more polished experience for many people compared to the FOSS alternatives.

I use Liftoff and Connect myself, and have never tried Sync. However, when Boost becomes available I'd love to try that out as well, as that was my Reddit app of choice.

[–] jungekatz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well there is an infinity port and since it was made for reddit too , its pretty nice ! The devs are active !

[–] Black_Gulaman@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Plus one for infinity.

Also voyager (wefwef) has now released on the play store, though I keep going back to infinity even if it's incomplete compared to connect, liftoff and voyager.

[–] jungekatz@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Thats the same , infinity is not finished but looks so much good !

[–] Thedogspaw@midwest.social 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

These are the voyagers of me on lemmy my continuing mission to seek out new communitys and new fediversers to boldly comment where no comment has been left before

[–] DadVolante@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Reddit.

When the apps fell!

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.de 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lemmy and Kbin at tenagra.

Liftoff their eyes open.

[–] blackluster117@possumpat.io 4 points 2 years ago

Mastodon, his arms wide.

[–] RavenFellBlade@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Gilgamesh, a king. At Uruk.

This may be the funniest thing I have found on Lemmy yet. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Darmok is one of my absolute favorite episodes of Trek!

[–] Coreidan@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

So much drama over an app. If you don’t like it then don’t use it. Pretty simple.

[–] snek_boi@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago

Cue the "Who's an edgy boy?" meme

[–] tym@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I'd be giving a thumbs up if I had three people juggling my jewels at the same time, too!

The copium is strong here. There are better apps if you didn’t know….

[–] TesterJ@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

"Better" is pretty subjective when it comes to this stuff. I've tried Jerboa, Liftoff, Connect, and Sync. I like Sync the best by far.

But I've also seen comments saying this exact same thing except they like one of the others the best.

[–] Numuruzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Someone should make a list of all the Lemmy apps which are objectively better than Sync and the reasons why. That'd show them.

[–] CertifiedBlackGuy@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

It sure would
