That's not true, clearly an apostrophe means: "watch out, here comes an s!"

Companies should be held accountable for bullshit like that.

My idea goes like this: In order to be able to sell some device you need to deposit its source code and the sources for all updates with the proper authorities.

If you then don't provide updates maintaining a) security and b) functionality of said device, because for example you go bankrupt, financially, or like in this very case morally, all of those sources are released and from then on are open source.

I'm having the same issue at work at the moment. When I connect to my dual monitor setup at work, all my usb devices stop working. Mouse, keyboard, the internal camera, monitors... All dead till you reboot, then they work for 10 Minutes again.

Now i have the same Monitor setup at home, no issues here. Mind you, it's a Lenovo ThinkPad with Lenovo monitors and it worked for years without issues.

The Lenovo technician told our IT guy that's because my monitor setup at home is another generation with a different chipset in the usb hub/switch. After giving us a few tips that didn't work, like disconnecting the Monitors from power for a minute or using a different port on the notebook they defaulted to "You're shit out of luck because the support ends after 4 years" - The monitors are 4 years old.

While we can't unasshole everyone we can start ticketing ppl who park outside the lines. In most cities there's traffic wardens anyways, so that should be cheaper than installing bumpers on every parking spot.

It's a very emotional thing for many of us. I've beed using reddit on sync exclusively, I just couldn't be arsed to use the web version any more.

So when they killed third party apps, reddit was dead to me. Not only because of the terrible user experience of the web site and official app, but mostly because of the way they treated the developers after all those years.

After the lemmy version came out, I opened it up and everything was back to normal (except for the missing content).

I'm really hoping that the devs of other apps succeed in the transition as well and they manage to get a good portion of their users to join as well.

As for the FOSS fundamentalists: I really don't get it. I've worked on open source projects in the past, when I felt I could contribute. I don't get all the hate being directed towards sync though. You like your FOSS-app? Great! I prefer sync and I'm happy to support the author.
