Yo,

I just got a “come join us on Discord”-Popup inviting Sync users to join the community for Sync for Lemmy on Discord.

Two questions:

  1. Why and
  2. Why?

I don’t want the join another Sync community when I have this one right here AND I especially do not want to join a community on Discord.

It just seems a bit tine deaf?

LJ, the reason I feel so strongly about this is that I really like Sync! We have an awesome app and we have a good community here. What gives?

    The discord predates the community and is better for real time chatting.

    Also handy for adding / debugging features in real time with users

      Fuck discord. Walled garden for kids these days. Yes, I’m old, but an open forum, searchable without an account is 1000000000 better than that abomination.

        I think we heard you the first time you posted this exact statement.

        Now this just looks like trolling.

      I joined the discord as Sync for Lemmy was being developed and can echo what’s said above.

      Good dialogue, faster feed back, more back-and-forth on issues.

      It just works.
