This is the original meaning of the phrase “the customer is always right”. It’s been warped by “karen” types into a weapon used against minimum wage workers, but what it’s supposed to mean is “the customer is always right in matters of taste”. Meaning if a company doesn’t want to do something because they think it’s dumb but the demographic says “I like that” then the customer is right, and the company should do it. I know the dwarf tag isn’t about money, but it’s still a matter of listening to the customers on the platform.

And anatomically correct.

I was never a Twitter user so I didn’t feel the need to become a mastodon user, but I do think that’s very cool, so now I can see stuff on mastodon without having to be a mastadonian? (Ps thanks for chatting)

I still don’t fully understand the fediverse, but I’m starting to. I know that the .world or the .ml or the .ee or whatever are the “instances” and that I can see all the stuff on all of them even tho I use .world. I am sure I will understand it better once I can start using sync again (or at least start understanding it in the capacity in which I’ll be using it). How do I support an instance? I’m also a broke bitch and don’t have a ton of disposable income, but reddit was and lemmy now is a service I appreciate and rely on, so I want to support the people providing said service, although I’m so grateful that I’ve been able to use sync for free for essentially the last decade.

I’m excited and pre-registered. I didn’t pay for sync for reddit, but now that I am more educated about the life of developers and third party apps, I will def pay for sync for lemmy. I have heard good things about some of the existing apps, but I have just been using the web browser while I wait for the sync app to be ready, and I am so ready to download and use it. <3
