Comment on Mastodon is Rewinding the Clock on Social Media — in a Good Way
Geert@lemmy.world 10 months agoIt would suck if Sync was the only option but it’s not. Nobody forces you to use it. You have such a hateboner for Sync it’s ridiculous. So the guy asks money for his work, who fucking cares.

It just happens to be a great demonstration that there can be no exceptions to eliminating ads. People seem to agree that ads are bad, but then have no principles or conviction when presented with the slightest inconvenience. “Guy just needs money” is not a good enough reason to change my opinion to ads are actually good. I’m not sorry. This has nothing to do with Sync or this person in particular.
It’s just the ad driven business model as a whole.

I am now very sure you are young and naive.
“Guy needs money” … for the time invested in providing something that is optional and you are free not to use.
You don’t like apps with ads than don’t.

I give a simple personal opinion that ads are bad and people start losing their minds. You are arguing with my opinion like you can persuade me that ads are good as objective fact. You can view as many ads as you wish, but that isn’t going to change how I feel about it.
