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

It's interesting how it's just assumed that everyone is browsing on mobile. I remember ten years ago on Reddit people making fun of mobile users and extolling the virtues of the desktop.

I do find it a bit odd to monetize a client for a service which is 100% free. Not necessarily against it, but it bothers me slightly.

Honestly I tried many lemmy apps and most apps are worse than just the mobile website, except for sync which is just slightly better

I was excited to try Sync after all the hype (read: advertising) on Lemmy, saw that it had ads, and noped the fuck out.

You do you, but I'm not gonna use that kind of garbage. Ads don't "keep apps accessible". Instead, they poison your mind specifically and suck balls in general. The entire advertisement model is flawed, and certain kinds of people only put up with it because they don't know better.
