  • Too soon, being taken advantage of?

    The developer has a track record, we already know the product being delivered and the terms.

    The fan base are the people who were already using Sync for Reddit.

    The people who like me had used Sync for Reddit since 2017. Sync always had ads and the inherent tracking, I paid 2.69€ in Jan 2017 to remove ads and support the development.

    (When In 2022 the developer added another support level where you had access to early betas, I paid again 4.99€, because I’m an early adopter and wanted to support again because I never went the subscription route)

    I have also setup a monthly donation towards my Lemmy instance.

    It might feel too soon because Ljdawson moves fast.


  • I am using it right now. Moments ago I was reading a post on a DnD community and had to do a double take, it felt like I was on Reddit, but it was just a bout of nostalgia after years of using Sync for Reddit.

    The familiarity, the gorgeous material UI, but now with 100% less spez!!

    Thank you for bringing Sync to Lemmy Ljdawson!!








  • I’m liking the game so far. I’m a level 49 necromancer, currently going through act 3.

    The field of view looks diferent, but I’m enjoing the enhanced verticality of the maps. I was amazed when going down a moutain for the first time during the beta, and now in act 3 the dunes look so cool due to that!

    Regarding the stats, I had to read up about their effects because I was also finding somethings odd, this is a good explainer: https://gamerant.com/diablo-4-stats-explained/ I would love if D4 implemented a system, lore adequate, similar to what death stranding has where there is an encyclopedia of game mechanics where everything is explained.

    (Only now am I noticing, in the screenshots on that website, that they have popups when you mouse over the stats explaining things, never noticed them given that I am playing with the Xbox controller on my living room PC :o)

    There are quite a few new systems ingame, its a diferent game from D3 wich was a diferente game from D2, for better and for worse.

    I’m enjoying learning those new systems and playing within their restrictions.
