    If someone sell an air purifier, would you berate them for selling access to free air? Of course not, you can still access free air without it. The air purifier just make the free air feel nicer, just like sync making browsing free Lemmy contents feel nicer.

      This feels a bit more like setting up a ticket booth outside a public library, and offering a half-assed tour where the guide just reads the signs to you

      I’m going to roll my eyes any time someone says they can’t use the library without it, but you do you. If it keeps y’all reading, then that’s fine.

        It’s more like selling seat cushions when the library only has folding chairs.

        Everyone can still go into the library. If you have the means and desire, buy a seat cushion. If not, the books are still there for everyone.
