I want Sync to succeed for the benefit of the community. Open-source guarantees that the community will always retain that benefit.
I wonder. Is this sentiment common among members of the Lemmy community?

Only thing is they broke Jerboa with the new website update lol
I guess, but that would happen with any app. Basically, to fix some bugs they had to rewrite the api, which causes incompatibility between versions, it’s inevitable and would happen regardless of if it was open or closed source
Not really. Jerboa and is made by the same people who made the WebUI - they purposely synced the two updates.
It just so happens that the new UI is missing a feature most admins want, so they’re delaying the update. But in theory, Jerboa would’ve been perfectly compatible from day one.
And if you don’t log out, you can actually keep using Jerboa (with a few crashes, yes) on outdated instances.
I’m using jerboa on this instance right now
It crashed several times trying to log in, but i got there, and now it works fine
Oh, so the crash on login goes away eventually? I got a few crashes in a row and gave up. Should I continue trying until it works?
It was only crashing for me while not logged in. Once i hit log in after entering my password, it went through fine and has been fine since
