It feels kind of the opposite to me.
Going back and checking my Google account history, I paid $1 for Sync Pro. In 2012. And was using it up until last month. In retrospect, that was far too low a price for the utility I got out of the app for literally years.
If anything, it feels like the dev has learned that lesson and has priced the lifetime option where it's actually sustainable for them if Lemmy stays around.
I agree. The original price for a lifetime use is maybe a bit too low. The original sync pro prices, but yearly instead, might be a solution. Not monthly. That is so messed up.
Well why not 1usd per month subscription. If 10,20,30 thousand of us subscribed, then he'd have a stable scaling income as the app grows in usage.
Edit. Thousand
I mean, there IS a monthly subscription for $2, so I'm not sure what your point is
The point is, I want a discount. Poor people also want to use Sync.
And before you ask, I'm in a third world country.
Ah. I agree that regional pricing needs to become more of a thing in general. That said, considering there's a free option in this case it's not too egregious. Just set up adblocking at the dns level?
There’s also a dozen very good free apps.
But you can use sync for free. That's why the dev has put options for you. If you cannot pay the ad removal, you can still support the developer by using the app but with ads
Yes but I do not want ads, and I also want to support the dev, yet due to my financial standing am unable to.
Anyways I'll just have to save up and get the 20% lifetime payment. That way I solve all of these with just one stroke.
For what it's worth the dev said today he's working on regional pricing. Comment here to get your country priced out sooner
you can though for free.
