Some of the trash bags have kitchen waste in them. Sometimes, when I’m carrying them down the stairs, they touch my skin and the liquid (mostly water) starts dripping down my legs.
cat food juices mainly for me… sometimes the tins break through the bag and it dribbles down the bag. other stuff I tend to dump in sink drain prior, yeah, the liquid thing never made sense to me tbh
I wouldn’t mind some of the “normies” joining. I’m a programmer too, and while the programmer/Linux jokes get a little bit of a chuckle out of me I wouldn’t mind some other stuff.
I used Jeroba while I was waiting for sync to come out. Personally it’s really no competition, it’s great that it is being worked on but Jeroba is significantly worse in every way except for being open source. Hopefully someday it will be great!
Synk is just so polished comparatively everything else feels unfinished
I don’t know the language either, and any guess I make will come off as North-India chauvinist XD maybe someone else here who knows the script will point it out
Sync for Lemmy is smooth and responsive. Just like how it was on Reddit. After using Sync, you will be comparing every other app experience against it.
Way better UI and UX, more and better features and customizability. It’s closed source though. This may be a deal breaker for some.
For me though, if I have 2 apps of the same quality, I’ll obviously choose the open source one, but if one is clearly better than the other, then I’ll choose the better app, regardless if it’s open source or not.
Unlike what some folks have suggested, I don’t notice any speed or loading advantages over the other native apps. Some of the other offerings may be a little better but the biggest performance gains when it comes to loading will come from moving off the largest instances to a smaller one.
The main differentiating characteristics IMO are below.
Pros:
The interface is essentially the one from the Reddit app. It’s a mature design in terms of polish and is overall more minimalistic and clean UI. I find it consistent and intuitive to navigate.
Decent amount of customization. While not exhaustive, the options presented are all well thought out. This includes moving things to side bar, bottom bar, and/or a floating action button.
Caveats:
Ads by default, with a $20 one-time payment option to remove them. There’s also an optional subscription (or a $100 lifetime subscription) for added features, which will include push notifications. Prices may be much higher for some other countries as adjustments for purchasing power haven’t been made yet.
As an early build, some basic functionality hasn’t yet been implemented including submitting posts or editing post titles. If you’re a moderator, mod functionality and reports haven’t been implemented yet.
Like other apps that were originally for Reddit, there are still some legacy references to subreddits. Sync also seems to still use orange for upvotes and blue for downvotes, which is the opposite from Lemmy.
It’s closed source. Without OAuth, the Lemmy devs have discouraged logging in with closed source apps (although I personally trust ljdawson).
Some people don’t trust Sync having ad tracking built-in. They’re disabled if you purchase ad removal. Otherwise, there was only one incident in the past where the app began injecting Amazon referral codes into URLs but this was reversed.
