I was looking forward to trying Sync today now that it’s live, but my enthusiasm was immediately dampened after seeing the “Data Safety” section on the Google Play store.

Liftoff has been great, and want to say thanks for making an awesome app. This will continue to be my daily driver.


Edit: for clarity, because the post got way bigger than I expected.

Sync looks like a fantastic app, and the dev/s should charge whatever they feel is fair for their efforts, even if that’s through the usual ads + ad tracking.

My intent was just to post here in /c/Liftoff to thank the Liftoff devs for managing to somehow offer an awesome app without any of that.

    I…uhh… I totally did that to the sync community stone cold sober, I just wasn’t paying attention. I thought I was still in the memes community. And then I doubled down with a Futurama reference. My bad y’all.

      honestly i think a lot of it is just growing pains, for a huge swath of users this is a new and potentially confusing environment lmao

        Very true, everything will probably settle in a few months, if that.
