Or they like to hang the carrot that they will “someday” go open source.
Arctic is good and getting better. But dude is too ashamed of his code to allow our help.

I mean, fair though. I would never want anyone looking at my code either.

The comments on my code would be all apologies, "my code is crap, sorry" "this shouldn't work but it does. Forgive me" "Beware all that enter, I apologize for the spaghetti everywhere"

free open source vs paid for proprietary

People were like "I'm spending all of my money on Sync for Lemmy" when it first released. And it steals your data. Never understood why this one would be preferred over the dozens of actually FOSS or free apps for lemmy
Can you say more about sync stealing your data? I must have missed the memo.
Stealing may be the wrong word, but their privacy policy is... Not great... Policy. I much prefer apps that do not get my purchase history and use other forms of trackers, thanks very much!
Which FOSS Lemmy app do you recommend?
For android, thunder. Best one imo, great customization but idk if its my phone but scrolling is stuttery.
For iOS, i'd go with Voyager.
!voyagerapp@lemmy.world is a popular recommendation.
Voyager
Voyager and/or Raccoon
Summit
Thunder! ⚡
Thunder! Voyager seems to have more features, but the one killer feature that it lacks is gesture navigation, so Thunder it is.
Eternity is great too!
I liked Thunder when I used it. But I have been on Connect a lot more which is not FOSS, but I liked it better than the rest of the apps I tried when I first switched to Lemmy. Actually testing Thunder again right now, might be my go-to from now on
