With the ad adjustment came these banner ads on the top of comment sections and they are atrocious so much so I don’t bother reading comments anymore. They all have the obnoxious white backgrounds and they flicker since they move. It feels light no matter my phones britness they are blinding and since content doesnt get loads of comments the banner is just distracting while reading. I’m on board with ads as I haven’t paid to remove but this specific style changes how I’m using sync now.

    I said “hadn’t”. When you came back from your sabbatical you fixed the newest crash, and a few very old bugs, and the limited fixes in the patch notes seemed to indicate you weren’t working on the project over those 4 months. Obviously, you done a bunch since then. But I don’t know for sure, of course, because you weren’t communicating at all.

    Don’t feel too bad from my comments, LJ. I don’t know what you’ve got going on in your life. I’ve been a vocal supporter of Sync since the beginning, and I was still supporting and defending it in February, but after the fourth month of your complete silence, I started to lose hope and got very frustrated; started telling people the app appeared to be abandoned and not to spend money on it.

    You do your thing. I’m going to try to refrain from making any more comments about your app or your process, but I still don’t feel good about it.
