I definitely prefer FOSS, but hey if it gets you on the fedi, go for it.

One thing that worries me about Foss is the eventual lack of updates and potentially become abandonware. Many people mentioned that the Foss apps protects are a side project for most developers. They could easily lose interest or have other things happen in their life that take up more of their time.

These arguments are valid for closed source as well I agree, but this being the devs main focus makes me feel better about updates in the long term.

I mean the opposite can be said as well. Since open source apps are, well, open source, if the developer abandons them, someone else can pick up where they left off, but thatโ€™s not the case with the closed source apps.

Although the developer being paid to make the app can often make it higher quality.

It ainโ€™t FOSS but itโ€™s totally BOSS.

Iโ€™ve been using lemm.ee but this is a million times more enjoyable. I purchased Reddit Sync for Android years ago but Iโ€™m going to give the free version a spin and see about subscribing.

Sooooooo good.

From what Iโ€™ve read that all hinges on kbin making an API available for use first
