No. They'll be righteously smug as they try to keep up.

Didn't you know, LJ shouldn't get paid for his work. FOSS is better in every way./s

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Foss advocates aren't saying he shouldn't be paid, just that they would like the app to be open source.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, you haven't been reading all the comments talking about how it's a problem that it requires people to pay for the app then.

[โ€“] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The F in FOSS is free, and many are very sure Sync shouldn't cost, shouldn't have ads, and any money going to Sync is stolen from Lemmy and its instances.

It's not the majority. But it's a very vocal subset (who gathered enough upvotes it looked... like consensus.)

It's supposed to be free as in freedom, not free beer. I guess some people forgot about that.
