The point is; he wants a Framework-like approach to modularity and feature set. That means a phone that’s good enough to actually holds its own without retreating to being “ethical” or “modular.”

Fairphone is just the worst deal you can get even if you consider the ethical side of it. This is because rescuing an old phone gives you a much better experience for less than half the cost and keeping tech from the landfill is a lot more ecologically friendly as the work and sourcing was already done regardless of you purchasing the device.

back-to-back lying to the public

What?

sexual harassment debacles

… that none of which ended up in the court let alone confirmed. That’s an allegation, not something proven.

They’ve been sleazy for years, taking money from companies they claim to review impartially, and twisting everything into a meme factory instead of putting the tiniest amount of effort into quality reviews and tech journalism.

Straight up one of the points GN made. Which they really did improve upon. They don’t pump out as much content now, as well as generally higher quality content again.

salvage his reputation after covering up toxic and predatory workplace behaviour

:D

coming out the other side a multimillionaire.

Guy created and ran a YouTube channel, expanded it to be a media company. Hosts a forum, sells high quality merchandise (you can look up the coverage of their bag or screwdrivers from places like project farm). Also runs a premium video hosting and live streaming service for creators. That’s what we call “earned it.”

This comment just reeks of toxicity, rather than criticism.

Social(ist) policies are extremely removed from socialism. The countries people list here, aka Canada, Danmark and Ireland among others are extremely capitalist still. This thread is therefore useless.

Oh, interesting. Nice to know that, thank you!

Yup, just saw it, thanks!

Niagara costs like six bucks to buy?

Turkish Lira

It’s ₺3290 which is $122 in Türkiye.

Have you considered people are mad because:

• Same purchase was a lot cheaper when it was Reddit.

• Reddit already ran ads, so having an app who ran ads of its own was fine.

• Monoteizing a FOSS project in a way that doesn’t help the maintainers of that project may not be seen as ethical.

• Having a subscription for features that don’t cost anything to serve (highlighting users can be done locally for instance) might feel like an artificial limitation to drive sales.

• The fact that it launched with both a transaction (not a small one, as it costs more than any non-professional app I bought) and a subscription service in literally the first beta of the app.

• Combination of these with all the alternatives being all-free (both in price and as in freedom) might make people think few times before paying for this app.

Personally, I really dislike the price, find subscription meh but I absolutely adore Sync’s UX. But honestly, without few things changing, I don’t see myself recommending Sync to friends.

I don’t know what happened but I also see less politics and more interesting topics, which is making me want to vote more let alone to comment more.

I also did the same yet I still see the empty spaces. I also tried revoking GDPR and still seeing the same spaces. Interesting.

Connect also.

Considering those users paid Sync for Sync specific features, all subs should carry over to the new Sync app.

I already have a DNS blocker so I only see blank spaces between posts, maybe it’s something like that for you as well?

Please add regional pricing. It’s currently ₺650 to remove ads. Considering Forza Horizon 5, a triple A title that costs $60 normally is priced at ₺600, the current pricing is just too much for anything but the NA and EU.

Connect for now. It isn’t perfect but pretty good. Feed isn’t as smooth (images load in later kicks your scrolling up) and you can’t open links in it automatically.

So I tested both FireFox and Edge real quick and it’s true.

Although, I enabled every security and privacy setting on both (just about the same set of extentions also). But even then, even with a lower score, Edge still feels much smoother to use. Also, every time test refreshed, FF flashed white for a split second as opposed to Edge’s black. Since I use dark mode and Dark Reader, it’s extremely annoying on FF’s part.

It’s not even available in my own country to begin with lmao.
