My question is, why are people waiting until now to say you can donate to Lemmy devs? I haven't seen it discussed at all, anywhere, until someone released an app where they're asking for optional payments
Plus that "accounts never gets suspended and no one but the user who made it can delete comments" just make me think it's full of pedos and right wing domestic terrorists who found a place they can spew shit without anything happening
All the backlash comes from the elitists that have been using Lemmy before the reddit API change, and I guarantee everybody will shut up about it in a week or so.
Lemmy users when reddit users transfer over: omg welcome to our humble little boards! Feel free to use it however you desire!
Lemme users when a developer makes an app for it: NO YOU FUCKING WORTHLESS MORON YOU'RE SELLING YOUR SOUL $20 IS MORE THAN I'VE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE AND YOU WANNA THROW IT AWAY??? THIS WEB APP THAT HAS NO ANIMATIONS AND NO FEATURES AND RUNS LIKE SHIT IS THE BEST AND ANYBODY WHO ARGUES WITH ME IS A SHILLLLLLLLLLLLL
For lifetime. Single purchase. It's $17 a year. To support an incredibly small development team which were kicked off Reddit without any way to stay. Yeah, I'd pay some money to help a dude put food on the table.
Same, I'm sorry but you can't tell me any of the FOSS apps feel as good to use. People recommend WefWef and it's a basic web app that feels horrible to use but like it because "it reminds them of RiF or Apollo", but then complain about Apollo for Lemmy?
If they didn't want to be friends with you because you couldn't play pool through a texting app, they weren't worth being friends with in the first place.
We really already doing this? Really about to start the whole "I'm going to insult you because you have a different opinion than me, and I'm not actually going to contribute to the conversation at all" shit?
