i just want to say how much I love having separate upvotes and downvotes.

It's very nice to see that X people liked a post/comment and Y people disliked it instead of just having a singular "goodness/badness" rating. It (literally, in a mathematical sense) adds a whole new dimension to post ratings and gives us a more nuanced understanding of people's opinions. Plus, it feels a lot better to see that 5 people agreed with you and 7 disagreed when you made a controversial statement instead of just seeing a score of -1 telling you how bad you are.

Huh? Where do I see this? If it matters I'm using sync on android.
This is !voyagerapp@lemmy.world.
You can't on Sync as far as I'm aware.
But at least we can pay a premium price to maybe receive it in the future! Because the dev is doing gods work and whatnot.
Yeah there's definitely a bit of a circle jerk happening with Sync. People proclaiming it was the best Lemmy app ever, while up until a few days ago you couldn't even submit a post.
Edit: realised I even got downvoted for pointing out Sync doesn't have that functionality. How ironic that the only reason I can see that is because I'm not using Sync haha
People have to justify paying premium money for a beta in every way they can. Imagine Boost releases and is better in every way, and people have spent upwards of 120 dollars on Sync. I don't understand the rush.
Edit: Just out of curiosity, you running Voyager or smth else?
Voyager. I've tried a couple others but keep coming back to it.
Yeah with the cost of Sync. I don't think it's right. This isn't Reddit. I've donated money to support a local instance and I'll donate to Voyager as well. I'm for supporting developers. But this is an ad free platform, so it feels wrong to pay so much for an app that adds ads to it.
Yeah I agree. Creating a problem and taking "donations" to solve it is a bit sketchy especially when the instances themselves could use that funding. And when the whole idea of the platform is the other direction.
Man....tough crowd...down vote hate for an innocent question with a bit of info on my client. Feels like somewhere....we all left.
