It really is tempting to click on that $99 lifetime sub. I kinda feel like I got way more than my money’s worth out of Sync for Reddit, and I’ll use it for many more than the five years it would take to pay more for yearly subs.
That’s been my experience. I’ve been using Jerboa, Connect, Liftoff, and Thunder before this, and activity has been slowly increasing over the past few weeks. Sync releases, and activity increased significantly within hours. Also, I have not touched another client since Sync dropped. I appreciate the effort of all of the other developers making Lemmy apps, but Sync is home. Nothing comes close.
I was super excited for my Transformers Legacy Skyquake to arrive today.
It didn’t arrive, which is a bummer.
But I get to look forward to getting it tomorrow, and I’m still really excited for it!
Awesome, thanks for that! So it does something akin to a doubled d in English.
So how does one pronounce the double t “tt”?
I used Linux Mint for several years on a dual-boot laptop. I rarely found myself booting Windows. While there was a learning curve, Mint was fairly accessible out of the box and was generally a delight to use. Until it wasn’t. At some point, the drivers for my video card updated, and just flat broke everything. And I can’t really use a computer on which I can’t see the desktop. I waited. And waited. A fix for the driver may have eventually come, but after awhile, booting into Windows just became my default, until eventually I just wiped the Linux partition to recover the storage space.
It was fun while it lasted, and I may choose one day to give it another go for the fourth time. This wasn’t the first time I’ve had something like this happen. First time was with Fedora, and the second was Ubuntu. Each time, I had the same “it worked until it didn’t” experience, and each time it stopped working was usually some kind of broken driver making my hardware incompatible.

I am so looking forward to this!
Here’s my example: I subscribed to Paramount Plus explicitly for Star Trek content. The week I subscribed, they pulled all of the non-Abrams films. So I got to watching other stuff. Eventually, they brought all of the films back. Cool, right?
So I finally get around to Prodigy, a show made for Paramount Plus. Two episodes in, and it vanishes. No announcements or warnings that that show was just going to disappear. It’s gone. Because “it wasn’t popular enough”. A show that only existed on that one platform was pulled off of that platform with absolutely no other legal way to view it. Content that I specifically signed up for that platform to see, and now I can’t… legally. Yo ho, yo ho, me hardies.
I would say Rebel Galaxy and especially Rebel Galaxy: Outlaw, which reminds me of Wing Commander: Privateer for the “Good game with little recognition”.
For the “Objectively bad but I still love it” type, Lichdom: Battlemage and Technomancer are deeply flawed but wonderfully fun gems that require you to ignore some pretty big problems to find your enjoyment in them. Same with DarkStar One and the Starpoint Gemini series.
Yeah… I considered it. And then decided that not only was Reddit no longer worth the effort, but that I actively want to prevent them from using any of my content for their benefit, so I overwrote and deleted my entire comment history. Now I’m waiting a few days to see if they restore them, because apparently that’s the level of bull that Reddit is now stooping to, and if I delete my account I won’t be able to nuke my comments again.
But I fully understand why someone would be inclined to do all of that. I very nearly kept at it. In the end, I no longer trust them at all as a platform.
I tried it and it didn’t work. I’m not sure if that’s because I only have the final updated version of Sync Pro. I was really disappointed.
I know. The keyboard I have on Android lacks a backslash. I did just find it on the Samsung keyboard, though, so
