Sync Ultra is a very reasonable $17 a YEAR. YouTube Premium is reaching that per MONTH. I have sync downloaded and it was the first thing I did. Thanks lj for the beautiful app.

[EDIT: That was a poor comparison, as pointed out in the comments. Leaving it for discussion sake.

There are many counterpoints and actually good discussion happening down below. Even if you don’t agree, thanks for showing me a different perspective!

If you want to support Sync, make sure to support the Lemmy Devs and your instance holders as well!

    If you are already using add-ons, why would you even use premium. Just use Adblock plus sponsorblock

      Premium is a great service for $4 a month and it’s just handy to be able to use the real YouTube app when you need to. I personally use SmartTube on my Android TV and I absolutely love it.

      I also use NewPipe x SponsorBlock on my phone if I want to listen to podcasts without any ad reads and it’s occasionally handy if I want to listen to music on YouTube and not keep my screen on although I use Spotify for music most of the time.

      PlexAmp is great for my MP3 collection which is all on a Plex server in the cloud along with all my movies and TV shows. UI is a little quirky but it has all sorts of cool features like AI powered suggestions that use GPT4 tech and lots of other cool stuff

      Because I use YT Music. YT Premium is just 1.2€ more than Spotify Premium so I may as well just go for YT Premium.
