you have to take into consideration that not all people have your level of pay, your quality of life and so on. That 'measly fee' is two day's pay for some and they can't afford that. Yes, I understand that the dev has to make a living, but I think it's a bit expensive. And I was paying for Sync (for reddit) since the beginning. I even got Pro for my wife, who didn't use it at all, just to help LJ.
Okay, people who can't afford two dollars per month to pay for something that they use every day are welcome to use another app, or deal with occasional ads. That's the thing, there's a variety of different app choices. The bitching comes off as "I love this app but I want to use it without paying for it or dealing with ads" more than anything else.
The other apps are not free to dev and maintain either. You got to give what you can.
I agree. I will donate to liftoff and summit. I feel better when I use open source software.
