First off, you say the rest of us. Do you support lemmy financially yourself? (Genuine question, not trying to call you our or anything)

But that same thing can be said about all open-source software. I don’t fully get your point. The reason the whole sync thing feels wrong to me is just because all that expensive fancy stuff, whether server hosting or the framework and protocol itself, isn’t the service you’re paying for. All that is free for the end user. Paying for essentially just the UI seems odd. It’d be like having a desktop environment for Linux that’s paid only.

By 100% free I meant on the end of the client. And it’s not like the money from the monetization of sync is going towards hosting lemmy servers.

I do find it a bit odd to monetize a client for a service which is 100% free. Not necessarily against it, but it bothers me slightly.

Well what do you know. Had no idea that was there.

Edit: it seems this only works on posts you actually click/vote on. Better than nothing, but I would prefer if it did this on all posts I’ve even scrolled past.

As far as I know ow most paid VPNs allow it, a lot of free ones don’t. I can say from experience that Windscribe allows torrenting, although there is a 10gb limit per month on free accounts (there is a way to get around that tho)

I don’t disagree, I only brought it up because it’s the only argument that holds any merit (even if little) and is made irrelevant in this case.

I don’t disagree, I brought it up just because it’s the only argument against piracy that holds any merit at all )even if little) and is, in this case, completely irrelevant anyway.

Maybe I’m the only one, but I just want a lemmy client that’ll change the way homepage sorting works so that when I refresh its not the exact same feed. Feel like it wouldn’t be that hard to make it not show posts you’ve already seen. Cause currently, I have to always browse lemmy in one session. If I quit, I have to come back like hours or even a while day later just so I don’t have to scroll past posts I saw already

The only argument for piracy being bad is that it is stealing because they lost a sale they would have otherwise gotten. You already bought the game. Therefore, there is no lost sale. There’s not a single moral argument against it now.

That being said, your ISP can’t tell the difference, so make sure you use a VPN (especially if torrenting)

I don’t have enough ideas man
