Afternoon everyone,

I wanted to go over a few points related to pricing, stats and the roadmap

Pricing

  1. Sync for Lemmy is completely free with ads (the same as Sync for Reddit)

  2. You can remove ads in the account picker or drawer for a one time fee of ~$20

  3. Sync Ultra also removes ads but it's not required

  4. I'll be working on regional prices over the coming weeks

There are now 24k installed users up from 100 the previous day!

I'm going to be spending the next few days going through all of the comments / messages and fixing any crashes.

As always thanks for the support and hope you're liking Sync!

Lj

I downloaded the free version for now but where are people seeing ads btw? I don't want them obviously but I'm yet to see any lol

They don't seem to work yet, just an empty box that says sponsored content

Yeah man...I am a dev myself but $20 to remove ads is just too much, especially without regional pricing.

I'll be working on this full time and plan to make this the best Lemmy app possible.

I think the pricing is fine if the quality matches it. Considering how much time we spend on our phones it could be great value for money.

I'm very curious to see how the advertising option works out for you, as currently I'm not aware of any lemmy sites with sustainable finance models.

That level of transparency is incredible, lowkey considering making an account there...

Do reddit sync pro / reddit sync ultra lifetime purchases carry over in any way?

Because the purchased services are no longer available and it would be a pretty good faith acation to take to prove life time means life time

Perhaps you're missing that I am not demanding anything but saying it would be a nice nod to supporters of a product and a good PR move.

But it's good you aren't his PR team cuz you are very bad at communicating.

You're rage is both pathetic and important.

But please keep telling into the void keyboard warrior. What would the internet be like if you weren't doing such a service

Does anyone know how to get the coloured vertical lines back to show different levels of threads in comments sections? Or if that isn't a feature any more, can they please become a feature again?
