I don’t really see the entitlement here, but I’m sorry nonetheless for the attitude in my comment. I was speaking as a developer and designer myself, but I know the memmy people have no reason to work on any part of the app they don’t want to. I was trying (and failed, miserably) to explain why I left for such a seemingly petty reason. I simply found an alternative. From the perspective of a user, their focus on “new” instead of fixing bugs first was frustrating. That’s not entitlement. I didn’t insist anyone fix it. I saw that the team’s priorities weren’t in line with what I’d assumed they should be. I guess my dogmatic “user centric” approach can read as entitlement, but I’m fully aware I wasn’t owed anything as a user of a free app.
Jeez this is one of the most entitled and ignorant unfriendly things I have read so far towards developers.
If you are so entitled, make an app for Lemmy yourself - in your free time without getting an income-stream.
Realize the developer does everything in their free time for no money.
It might seem like a small thing but it might be a pain to develop a fix for it (I’m not an coder so, I don’t know).
Be happy there are updates for an app that’s getting developed and maintained in their free time for no money.
Otherwise just delete the app and move on.
