Give Infinity for Lemmy a try. It's just as good IMO, and unlike Sync, you don't have to pay $99 to permanently stop it from spying on you.
I was so glad to see infinity for lemmy. I used infinity for reddit and that had a ui that both looked good and was intuitive. I was super excited to see that there was now a fork of it for use with lemmy.
"99 to permanently stop it from spying on you."
No you don't have to pay at all actually. In fact people can choose to pay for something they love that works better than half the Lemmy apps I have already tried. I will pay for something that works.
Open source doesn't always mean you are any more safe either. I feel like this community thinks it knows more about security than it actually does.
Lemmy itself has encountered numerous cyber attacks.
And it's taken sites down. It's almost as if this community doesn't know as much about security as it claims it does.
