I've been a long time Sync user and paid for everything he asked when it was Reddit. I'm $5 a month for my instance - startrek.website.

Haven't yet kicked in for Lemmy Sync. I feel good about sending some cash to the dev, but don't love subscriptions and the lifetime payment of $100 is a little too rich for me.

Lifetime $20 for ad free

Don't think you really need ultra, do you?

Voyager for the win

lmao are you for real, if you don't like it just use one of the other apps or just use it and don't pay for it all of this complaining about it is just pathetic

Mans gotta eat. Sent from Sync for Lemmy.

Honestly why would I pay so much when I can use Summit for free? I don't mind supporting developers but 20$ is quite pricy. And the other price option are imho nuts. I paid for pro version of Boost for Reddit 4$, that's reasonable, maybe upto 10$. It's just an app for viewing content. It's not groundbreaking program or game.. And if you multiple the price x sales, the developers will make money anyway.

Wait, you have to pay for Sync?

[-] s1ndr0m3@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

No. But you have to pay for ad-free. The ultra subscription service is more expensive than it was under reddit Sync. I'm hoping the prices will go down as the app gets more popular. I'm guessing the dev is trying to make up for the lost revenue from shutting down the reddit app.

I used Sync Pro for Reddit (RIP) and loved it, that being said, reddit was full of ads.

Lemmy is not by design, therefore I am sticking with Connect. (Let me know if there is something better, that isn't Sync!)

Sync is cool,but Jerboa is currently good-enough, while being free as in free beer, to wait until the recently released Infinity for Lemmy are being more robust.

[-] theragu40@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Opinions are opinions. That is yours.

Mine is that I have used Jerboa since I joined Lemmy a couple months ago. It's improved a lot, and even in its latest iteration is nowhere near as polished and nice as sync. It was an easy decision to switch.

is this complaining about sync or complaining about people not donating to other developers?

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I'm donating to lemmy.world and using sync free. I wanted to supper sync too, but the price is too much.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 9 points 1 year ago

Could always run his own Lemmy server for Sync users, I guess. Could take the load off some of the others.

[-] mgiuca@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

It would be unnecessary if Lemmy's web UI was actually reasonable. As it is, every single time I open the app, I have to log in again, then refresh the page to see anything at all. The news feed is paginated rather than endless scroll. When I press the back button on a comment thread, it takes me back to the page before the one I was looking at, so I lose my place. It's borderline unusable.

So I guess I'll give my ad eyeballs to the app that actually works.
