Not hating on open source, just let people use what fits their expectations and needs and stop deterring them with gatekeeping :P

the huge amount of holier-than-thou rhetoric that’s plastered all over the front page of Lemmy right now

All I'm seeing in the all frontpage is people glorifying Sync while belittling other apps and complaining about those complainers, Like dude, I have the sync community blocked because while I like that it exists, I don't want to be force feed with that content, and now I still am because it's being discussed in other communities.

What's annoying is the way some people talk about the app, stating that it's the objective best app ever, like zealots. I don't give two flying fucks about the price but I swear that the alleged complaints of FOSS users may be in part because of the attitude of other users.

Please link me a single post other than this one that glorifies sync while belittling FOSS apps (not that this one belittles Foss apps in the slightest) - preferably with more than a dozen upvotes

Because I posted a screenshot in this thread with five of the top 10 posts on my front page being the exact opposite, and I really don't believe you when you say that you're being spammed with "sync zealots"

People like Sync, but it's the haters that are being spammy and obnoxious about it, not it's users
