I’ve tried, but I wasn’t able to get it working. I’ll look into it again though, cuz I’d love to do it all through NPM.

I agree, very beginner friendly. But also, it’s what most people are gonna need.

I actually started with Traefik because I didn’t know any better, and I kinda wanna go back to be honest because with Traefik I was able to configure a Minecraft server, without having to expose the port. But not with NGINX Proxy Manager.l, since it only does http and shit. But I REALLY like being able to do everything via a webUI since I only have a phone to manage my server .

So, I find myself stuck between functionality and ease of use. :(

You know what, yeah, completely fair.

If you don’t mind me asking, what apps are, in your opinion, as good as Sync? (Removing the ads, and payment and shit out of the debate).

I’ve used Thunder, Jerboa, Connect, LiftOff, and maybe another that I can’t recall. Last time I used each of them, they were nowhere near the level of Polish that Sync has. That being said, it has been a while because once the Sync alpha launched, I exclusively used Sync for browsing and Connect for posting. They might have changed and been updated, etc.

Couldn’t agree more!

(I hope I don’t come off as attacking you! I’m kinda just using your comment to piggyback and make my own haha)

It’s closed source, as was his reddit version, so idk what anyone expected there. He also never said it was ever going to be open source. But I completely understand anyone who isn’t willing to let go of their FOSS. FOSS is good for a reason! :)

I do understand the mindset that it goes against the fediverse, but I happen to disagree. In other threads, there’s been discussion about how they are actively paying donations, patreons, paypal, etc to help fund their favorite instance or whatever else. That needs to happen to offset the cost. Especially if it is the instance owners hobby, and not full time job.

Well, what if we want a nice experience while using Lemmy? Sure, there’s plenty of apps, but what if someone was able to dedicate their entire working hours to that app? To make it as good as possible? Well, then they’d need to make money somehow, right? Or they’d have to get a different job, and do the app as a hobby. This hurts the app, and then it just becomes another run of the middle Lemmy client.

I understand why people are upset. Lemmy is free. The fediverse is free. (Most of) the apps are free. But someone is paying for all of this, whether we realize it or not.

Matter of preference, really. I like a nice UI, smooth animations, clean aesthetic, etc. Sync provides that for me and more, so to me, it IS better than all the other apps. :)

It’s the best UI currently :)

Perhaps I am biased, but I’d still like to point out some facts :)

Yes, it has ads. It also has options to remove them.

No, you can post. That’s coming soon.

This app is also in its first beta release. It hasn’t been officially launched yet. It just happened that a lot of people who were excited about Sync coming back drummed up a lot of hype for it when the beta finally launched, that we kicked off a massive news wave apparently.

Also, of the ones I’ve used, the fluidity of the app, the smoothness of it, and the polish (especially for a beta) is unmatched from the other Lemmy clients I’ve used (haven’t used all of them, but I used a lot of them.)

I think someone else already mentioned it, but just to reiterate… Anything for other people who aren’t my wife and future kids.

Password manager, file backups, photo backup, whatever.

If something happens to me, or I pass away, wifey has instructions on shutting everything down (probably should write instructions on how to save all the important stuff).

But I don’t want to deal with other peoples stuff. I like tinkering with my server and different docker containers, etc. So I don’t want someone complaining they can’t access their photos because I wanted to try something new. Also, just don’t wanna be responsible for storing their photos and important documents.

So, I have no idea what your patterns, habits, and just general life is like, but I actually use it for some subscriptions. I currently pay for Sync for Lemmy using it, and also for a mass texting app.

Are there any mobile games you like? You can use it for some iAP’s :)

If there is an app that you’ve been eyeing but it is a little more than you’d like to spend, maybe use your credits on that!

That’s how I paid for 1Password 7 a few years ago lol

The dev has stated that this exact bug was fixed over a year ago. As for this version of Sync, should still be fixed, but I will remind you and anyone else reading this, this release is a BETA. There will be bugs. It’s getting a lot of attention in media, so that seems to be lost in translation so to speak, but it’s still not officially fully released. :)

How was this posted 2 years ago?

On the connect for lemmy app, it thinks it’s a user lol.

So unfortunately I didn’t play video games until about 2001 when I turned 5 and got an N64 for my first Christmas in the USA. The game itself is from 2000 though.

Mickey’s Speedway USA for the N64.

Goddamn I loved that game. I have so many fun memories with it.

Awesome, thank you for taking the time to a deer my questions.

I see it says authenticatior support, but I’m not sure if that means what I think it means in this case.

I’m reading through it, but maybe you can anwser it faster.

Does this support generating 2FA authenticator codes like 1password does?

Agreed.

Idk if I can do this. I really want/like the saved snippets so I don’t have to retype everything over and over again lol

Bro, fucking yes!!

I have 3 Google nest mini speakers or whatever they’re called, and I bought these smart outlets at target.

Connected 2 of them in the master bedroom, to bedside lamps for wifey and i. Being able to use the Google home app from our phones to control, or as you said just “hey Google, turn on Daddy’s lamp” is fucking solid. I hate flicking on light switches. Never realized it until I set this up.
