        You should use Linux and look at my programmer socks 👍

        You seem to be implying that there’s such a thing as too much trek, which is preposterous

            …what if I told you my app was a website, desktop app, and mobile app all in one. Still have a lot of work to do, and expect it to be best optimized for mobile, but I’m pretty confident I can launch with a better desktop experience then Voyager.

        Care to list all the apps updated at least once in the last 2 months and without ads? Just asking for a friend.

          I’m a big fan of Eternity, and (I think) it’s maintained. Hasn’t broken for me at least.

            I’m posting from the app. So far it’s working well, still, nice to have more alternatives.

    Can someone make a version of this saying lemmy has no adds. I think that honestly is the best selling point for reddit users at this point.

      Here you are.

      Btw, the source file (SVG) is available on my Git repo on Codeberg ;)

        Thanks for making this, and especially using an excellent design in a shareable meme format that pitches Lemmy simply to users.

        One day we may need to have ads to pay the bills if we have another massive Reddit exodus. What are your thoughts on creating an alternate one that says something like “your data not tracked or sold”?

          Thx.

          I’m hostile to ads, fully and openly and I’d rather pay than be forced to look at ads. But that’s just my personal opinion and I would not want to impose it on anyone. At least, I think that’s also what freedom should mean: the freedom for anyone to disagree with me and me with anyone ;)

          The first version of the file had no mention of ads (I simply deleted it by mistake ;) and you can get the SVG here.

          Tout le plaisir est pour moi.
          You’re welcome. Even more so than you are perfectly right! Lemmy being ad-free is so f. good. While I was making that silly image, in a hurry in the middle of another job, I had a line about ads (I hate ads) but somehow managed to delete it :/

      Reddit users will tell you they used their revanced version of their old client and there are no apps

      Never understood this point. There’s no way you can move your account (including full history) to another instance, right?

        The main point is being able to still access all of the communities if your admin goes rogue (similar to what Reddit is doing). That’s possible on Lemmy, you export / import your settings and you’re set.

        Keep the same username, add a link to your new and old profiles and the bio, and you just moved instances. You may have lost your comments history, but there is no karma anyway, so why care? And it’s still accessible on your old account.

    We maybe should downplay the ‘no ads’ thing. I can definitely see a day when ads are required to support some sites.

    I like that we’ll have a choice on that day, but I do see that day.

      I agree. I think it’d be better to change that part to something like “your data not sold or tracked”.

      Here’s a version without the ad

      Ironically, it got added because someone in the comments wanted it

      You’re welcome.

      Note that I just updated it to answer guaraguaito’s remark regarding Lemmy being ad-free. Also, the SVG file is available for anyone to play with (it’s SVG file, made with Inkscape, using the DejaVu Serif font)
