Appreciation post for Liftoff not collecting user data or injecting ads. (lemm.ee)

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.

Well, Sync brought more of the yucky Reddit people which were a minority in the first migration.

I use Jerboa, which is the best client for Lemmy, not Sync.

The best lemmy client is the one you like the most, I'm using Thunder, but someone could hate it and use liftoff or jerboa or something

Did it? I'm not seeing any more activity than normal in the last 24 hours, to spite that 10k downloads number on Google play
