I think now is a great time to remind everyone, like sync’s developer, Lemmy’s developers need to be paid too! The amount of time all the devs put into making lemmy exist, in my opinion, should be worth some of your money. If you can afford it, donating to the people who develop lemmy and/or the people keeping your home instance up will accelerate the incredible growth of lemmy!

    They can get paid, but $20 for lifetime ad removal, and $130+ sync ultra whatever it’s called?

    That’s not beer money like another commenter said, that’s fraud and stealing money for barely anything to give for it.

      We are talking about donating to your instance admins and the Lemmy devs. Read the entire post. Your instance admin is how you are able to have an account to post about sync prices in the first place.

      Calling it fraud and stealing money is uncool. People aren’t being forced to use the app or pay for the subscription. Let people spend their own money however they see fit.

      You know you don’t have to use it right?

      He made on of the best Reddit apps ever. Supported his app for like 10 years.

      20 is nothing.

        Oh yeah $20 is fine albeit a bit too much for ad removal but fine

        What I really have gripes with is the $130+ ultra thing. I saw that and noped the fuck outta that app and uninstalled it as quickly as I installed it.

        It also doesn’t help that when I bought sync pro it was equivalent to or less than $10 and now he wants $20 for a basic ad removal? He’s greedy.
