The 0.19.4 release also broke marking posts as read in Sync for Lemmy. Although this isn’t really something we consider a blocker, it’s still worth mentioning, as there are still a lot of Sync for Lemmy users out there that haven’t noticed this issue yet if they’re only active on Lemmy.World. Over the last 2 weeks we’ve had nearly 5k active Sync for Lemmy users . This is unfortunately something that will break during the upgrade, as the API has changed in upstream Lemmy.
Also just extremely rude… Everyone would understand if he puts out a short message like “busy with work for the next few months”. Randomly leaving for months while people pay for something you make is crazy.
Wait, what?! I’m on sync right meow and haven’t noticed anything off about it. But i also don’t have any other source of news or social media to compare to lol.
The most shocking revelation tho is that I haven’t paid a dime to use synce and it’s been my only means of accessing Lemmy since I annexed from reddit. There is an option for premium but there is nothing about the free version that I would feel I’m missing out on something enough to pay for it.
Sure we don’t, but as a long time subscriber on reddit then Lemmy, who doesn’t even need the ultra features but wanted to support the dev, I’ve been feeling bamboozled for a few months now…
Dude saw the project of his life absolutely destroyed by Reddit. I can understand he just wants to move to the next chapter of his life.
Sure a bit of communication is always appreciated but it’s already pretty cool he ported the app to Lemmy.
