The people who are actually angry tend to be FOSS advocates. I think they were assuming Sync would have a FOSS type option for users, and were surprised that wasn’t the case.
It’s just a meme because when Sync launched it was all over everyone’s feeds. I don’t think as many folks are as angry about it as it seems but it’s definitely a good topic for meta memes.
But im using sync for free.
Why are people so angry about this?
Well you see, it’s important to aggressively gatekeep anything that people start to use and enjoy.

The rest of us just think it’s funny.
I’m a sync user, btw
I’m a FOSS advocate, and I have the $20 Sync ad free.
Same. I write FOSS software in my free time and also paid.
That’s awesome. :)

Im just happy for the influx of posts commenta and votes since sync launched.
Before it was a good day if a post got 50 upvotes Now its common to see 200+ and theres a ton more comments.
Its improved the experience in my opinion.
