      “use my instance please”

      “No not like that!”

      Holy fuck this is what we left Reddit to avoid…

      Lemmy had a garbage web UI. And the other apps I have used are not nearly as smooth as sync.

      I mean isn’t that true for literally every user that doesn’t pay? I’m not sure why we are mad at Sync users when we don’t even have a strong call to action to donate to instances.

      You think Sync users don’t also donate? I paid for sync and donated to Lemmy’s development. Considering donating to my 2 main instances as well.

          I just said we pay. You seem to think I’m talking about Sync.

          I’m not. Technically, I guess I could be talking about both server and sync.

          What I’ve seen on Lemmy is I can say I paid for Sync and donate to the server and someone will need to come along to tell me all of that money should go to Lemmy.

          That’s too either/or. And it’s making Lemmy look… incapable of nuanced thought. Or entitled.

          It’s not everyone, but it’s common enough it looks really odd.
