I feel the same about my baconreader app. They’re removing it from the play store and I can’t bring myself to uninstall it. Idk how long I’ll hold out but I might just transfer it to my next phone as a reminder/badge of honor or something.
It really does. I uninstalled it last night, and now there’s a big empty space on my phone where Sync is supposed to live. My wife and I were talking about it this morning, and we were talking about it in grief terms. It’s kind of like a family member died–a family member who held a lot of memories and history, and so it really is a kind of mourning process.
For what it’s worth, that grief is part of what motivates me–like I think many of us refugees–to really push Lemmy and find our ways to get the most out of it. I want to punish the people who did this, and the way to do that is to hurt their bottom line. After I uninstalled Sync, my next step was the data request, and my next few days are going to be converting over bookmarks to their Lemmy equivalents until nothing is left.
I can’t do it quite yet. Feels like a funeral today, and I’m only half joking. I probably sunk over a thousand hours into this app.

I’m hoping to continue sinking hours into Sync when it’s ready for lemmy. I’ll delete my reddit app when the lemmy app is out.
