  • I appreciate your point, however - if you wish for this series of communities to succeed, it needs to be welcoming to newcomers. And one of the ways of doing that is allowing for a continuation of conversations that were on the source communities - including, “Oh, we’re getting out”, “Why it’s so bad”, “Where do we go to”, “How do we make the new community look/feel like I’m used to”, etc. etc.

    I’m happy to see this because it means that a corrupt and non-people-focussed environment is losing members. Like anything, it will pass, but please don’t push people away by making them feel unwelcome.











  • I’ve been using Sync for many years, and I’ll be switching over. I started with sh.itjust.works, and have moved to kbin.social because it supports a proper OAuth login process… I’ve read some people suggesting that kbin is a slightly differnet API than other federation sources, but… if it takes time, I’ll wait, no worries. Or I’ll create another account somewhere else… I think porting accounts and such is something that needs to be better handled, as does such a lot of the UI across all the different federation instances, but hopefully that’s something Sync can handle :) Thanks for your hard work, and you can guarantee that if you offer it, I’ll be going lifetime subscriber again. Totally worth it.
