Remove ads not being detected on all devices (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi, I purchased the ads-free version of Boost for Lemmy on my smartphone through the "Remove ads" button. However on a different device (tablet) I still see the "remove ads" button (while on the phone it is now correctly not shown) in the left sidebar. Does it take some time for the new setting to be detected? I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app and deleting all the data after forcefully closing the app, but the button is still there.

To be honest, I'm not seeing ads right now, so maybe it's just a UI problem? I will post updates here in case I see ads even after purchasing the ads free version.

I agree, I've always used sudo apt update, sudo apt upgrade and flatpak update on Pop OS and never used the pop shop.

I'm using PocketCasts and I paid a one-time fee before it became subscription based (but there's still a free tier), in order to be able to listen to podcast using the web app on PC. Thus I now have lifetime premium access.

I'm very satisfied with their service, I did not find any problems with both the Android app and the web app, moreover it has almost every feature I need, except voice to text conversion in order to be able to share slices of audio in text format (but there are dedicated apps for that).

What books are you reading at the moment? in c/sciencefiction@lemmy.world
[–] DarthVi@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I'm currently reading Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Corey, which is the first book of the Expanse series. I haven't watched the TV series, since I wanted to dive into the books without previous knowledge.
