    It looks like warmongering actually played a part in this year’s decision:

    The sanctions against those responsible for the war, the Russian and Belarusian states and governments, remain in place for the Olympic Games Paris 2024. This means, in particular, that:

    No flag, anthem, colours or any other identifications whatsoever of Russia or Belarus will be displayed at the Olympic Games Paris 2024 in any official venue or any official function.

    No Russian or Belarusian government or state officials will be invited to or accredited for the Olympic Games Paris 2024.

    People are upset because they want to use a premium service without paying for it. The dev was kind enough to add a free version, which is supported by ads. However, the ads in the free version use trackers (just like pretty much every ad service), so people are getting hysterical that the app is “spying” on them.

    It would be one thing if this was the only app for Lemmy, but there’s numerous other apps on the market they could use.

    Although none of them are even half as polished as Sync 😉
