I actually saw firefly last summer and the year before flying around my neighborhood. I will say though, that I saw way less of the last year than the year before. It’s made me wonder if I’ll even see them at all this summer.

As much as I would absolutely love us shifting from fossil fuels, it also needs to be practical. Suddenly increasing the price of gas doesn’t work for rural areas like the one I live in where your car is immensely important to you being able to get to the store or your job and we’re not in areas that public transport would be considered due to how small and spread out the towns are. And a lot of us don’t have the option to move closer to the cities and the transit opportunities either due to our jobs or just the cost of living required for the city versus our rural homes. We NEED to start working on infrastructure that doesn’t only have large cities in mind, but also us on the outskirts of the city or the rural communities will become even poorer than they are now when they have to pay a small fortune just to travel to the store or their jobs.

Another downside with smaller companies is there not always room for you to grow or move up.

When I made the switch I was shocked at well it blocks ads. It still surprises me to this day. Yeah, it takes a little longer to load, but I couldn’t care less.

I’ve actually been super pleased with Liftoff so far of the 3 apps I’ve been using. I feel like Sync would have to bring a lot more to the table for me to switch at this point. Though, I am excited to see what new things each developer will bring to the realm.

Agreed. I’ve been trying to rotate between Jerboa, Liftoff, and Connect and I just keep floating back to Liftoff for now. Finding I like the UI the best at this point and I’ve also been experiencing less issues with it as well.

But excited to see how they all continue to develop!

What a huge display of incompetence. And I can’t say how im even remotely shocked with how Musk managed to get a deal like that and push out any other smaller company from even being a participant. Such a mess.

Once people on reddit start noticing the decrease in content or the increase in reposting bots, there’ll be more movement towards here. We’re still in our infancy and working through massive growing pains just dealing with the current influx of people. We just have to give it time and also make sure that we’re participating in communities.

Makes me so uncomfortable too! Just looking at it skeeves me out.

Omfg you’re here! I’m so fucking excited now! I would always read through your such well written and referenced comments!!! This is such an exciting moment!

After the few initial minutes of using both Liftoff and connect, I prefer the design of liftoff so much more. Though I seem to be having some issues adding in comments or upvoting/downvoting things via liftoff, but having no issues with Connect. So I’m not sure what’s going on. Any help would be appreciated.
