Oh, but Adobe charges the very reasonable $600/yr and Autodesk a bargain $3000+ per year for their software, so clearly Sync must not be that good to only be asking $17 a year. I think I'll look for something more professionally priced, instead.
Isn't sync also free?
From what I've heard, you pay by viewing ads. Those can be blocked at the DNS level, though.
I just downloaded sync and don't see ads. I do run dns66 though so that must be it.
Yep, but you still see a big ass block where the ad would be, which isn't the case in any other Lemmy app.
As someone from a third world country, fuck no. That shit is too expensive for me. Maybe to you privileged folk it's reasonable. To me it's nonsense.
I feel shitty about it too since I was a long time sync pro user, I thought sync for lemmy would also have an affordable pro version but fuck me I guess
First thing I did after opening the app was to look for the Pro (ultra) in-app purchase. But monhtly payments, no thank you.
Same here. I hate subscriptions but would happily buy a Pro version like I did with Sync for Reddit.
Yea, I would gladly pay to remove ads. Like I already did for the Sync for Reddit. Twice. But no one likes subscriptions.
Prices are ridiculous, especially for returning users. The Lemmy app is basically the Reddit app. You can't convince me that at least 85% of the code was re-used from it. If you used the code from the app I already paid for (twice) I feel like I should get a discount.
Subscription models suck too.
a premium is worth it.
but also we need to help instance owners somehow too.
