I did a poll and nearly 30% of the people who voted said they used Sync! It’s stayed around that percent the whole time too!

EDIT: Here is the poll I forgot to put this here like five times lol https://strawpoll.com/wby5A21R1yA

    it’s that at any point a decision can be made which you have no control over

    This is true for any software you didn’t write. Plenty of FOSS software has gone in directions I didn’t like.

    The only real difference is whether decision makers have a profit motive. That’s important, but that said, it’s not everything.

      And at any time you or someone else who is likewise pissed off can fork the software and put it straight

        That’s really not a valid argument for 99% of users. I’m not going to fork FOSS software because I’m an adult and have a full time job. I don’t have the time to learn about the inner workings of the software to fix it. Most users are less tech savvy than myself, anyways. Saying “just fork it and fix it to your liking” to the average person is not realistic.
