This didn't make sense until I read it in an Irish accent.

Tap for spoiler

They've reduced my hours?

[–] everett@lemmy.ml 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Spoiler

me hours

But yeah.

That doesn't look like a spoiler in Sync. 😐

Idk, I checked in three clients and the web UI and they all got it right.

edit: Sync was last updated 18 months ago. 18! Keep using it if you like it, but you're basically doing this to yourself.

you're basically doing this to yourself.

Geez, guy. What a way to express yourself.

It's not like I was defending Sync. More like stating my disappointment in it.

I've switched to Summit. It seems ljdawson abandoned this project.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I have that installed as well, I have them all installed. But none are as good as Sync IMO. 😭

[–] everett@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Sorry, I read this as "Sync's doing it right."

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

If I had meant that, and I believed that, would you think "you're doing this to yourself" is an appropriate thing to say? 🙂

[–] everett@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Appropriate as in nice, of course not. Appropriate as in a helpful, if inconvenient, truth, yeah. I was responding to what sounded like a casual 'bug report' that presupposed that Sync is correct and my spoiler tag was malformed.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Okay then 😳 All I needed to know about you. 👌

[–] Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Weird, I had to read it like a pirate.

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I'm not sure if it's the Irish or pirates who are offended here.

[–] Winter_Oven@piefed.social 2 points 10 months ago

Took me way too long...

Just keep repeating it out loud, faster and faster, you're bound to get it.

[–] d00ery@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Bristol (west country) accent worked for me.

Hiss this a joke?
