Hate subscription based models. I wouldnt mind paying one-off but until then sorry sync , I am FOSSing
Actually the app just updated and has a one time purchase for removing ads now.
The one-time IAP is implemented now.
Lmao $100. There are so many other services who's lifetime is less than that and aren't just a front end.
This is starting to feel like a pretty disrespectful cash grab. Sync Pro was my Reddit app but it was never a $100 service.
Edit: Ah so there's tiers now. $20 for ad free as an option too. Meanwhile you get a lesser focused experience because obviously anything worth a damn is going to be Ultra exclusive.
Edit2: Just tried out Connect for Lemmy. Feels really close to Sync with gestures and such. I recommend. I was sitting on Jerboa waiting for Sync, but not with this pricing. And I'm pretty sensitive to server hosters cost. It's insane instances are out here operating at a loss providing content for these apps and Sync wants use them to charge people to provide a front end.
Curious where you are seeing the tiered options listed? I'm only seeing the 99.99 option for lifetime..
You click on the icon in the left hand side and it opens up a pop out, and one of the options is remove ads for $20. But then you don't get sYnC uLtRa features.
God damn bro. Its $100. Fuck that , I would rather give that money to a homeless or someone I need than paying it for a stupid app.
It's $20
It's 20 dollars.
Then do that? I bet you won't though.
Why you people getting so salty over some app? Fuck its like android, tesla,Apple fanboys. You guys are better than this BS.
I thinknit's clear they're not better than this.
It's actually my feeling about Sync. Some are fanboys and react like that. Criticism isn't permitted in this culture.

$20 is the ad free. $100 is like super-supporter.
Same. I refuse to subscribe to an app on any platform (mobile, console, PC). Not about to start now. At least they offer a lifetime subscription unlike some software (*cough*SignalRGB*cough*), but $99 is a little ridiculous. That's more than a video game! $15-20 is more reasonable. IIRC I only paid about $10 for Relay for Reddit back then.
what is fossing
Checkout Fdroid app store.
i have it
That's what FOSS means. Free and Open source software
