You know why, it’s because in the eyes of Lemmy users who have been here all along, launch of Sync is the start of their eternal September.

Sync isn’t trying to replace all Lemmy frontends or other FOSS apps, it’s trying to provide a Reddit-like experience for people who miss it.
People just find reasons to be upset, I swear.
If anything, the eternal September would have started when Reddit killed itself. I can’t imagine people thinking it’s starting now.
