  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

All the self righteousness of lemmy is strange.

There's not just better opinions, even small decisions are morally imbued and if someone steps out of line...

Wait, does using sync cause hurricanes? Earthquakes? Will the four big ponies of the lempocalypse arrive and snort angrily?

Otherwise, I get that a surge of people elated they have something you don't/can't have is off putting. FOMO is real.

But it doesn't need all the meme-shade.

I think this is just a reaction to the massive amount of hype we all saw yesterday.

It's a good app, but it's expensive, potentially collects your data and shares it with advertisers, and it's closed source. That's the facts of the matter so far as I can tell...

The are pros and cons here, obviously, but it's neither objectively positive or negative. With the pricetag comes unique features, like being able to tag people with notes. That's neat!
