I paid for no-ads Reddit back in the day but when I tried to transfer purchases nothing happened. Is this intentional? $30 seems steep for no ads but I’m a cheap bastard.
Sorry to ask a question that’s probably been asked before, couldn’t find an answer.
Hate to be that guy, but I cannot comprehend why anybody would pay THIRTY DOLLARS for an app tp use an already FOSS, federated, ad-free service lol Why not just use any of the other two dozen Lemmy apps
Most Lemmy apps suck. FOSS doesn’t magically make the UI better.
I tried a wide range of Lemmy apps before downloading Sync. Lemmy beat all of them.
Because we have spare money and we love Sync! Also its developer is amazing and has a great track record.
@DARbarian @Moneo why do the other foss apps have absolutely terrible UX?
I think this is the thing to remember, right here:
We don’t mind paying because we want to support the dev, so he can continue to make Sync for Lemmy as awesome for Lemmy as Sync for Reddit was. (And let’s not forget that it started out awesome enough to bring a lot of users to Lemmy as soon as it was released)
I’ve heard/read a lot of FOSS-or-die people donate to their favorite devs or apps or projects, so why is it so hard to believe that some of us are okay with donating to this? I paid to get rid of ads in Sync before I ever saw a single one - because I wanted to support LJ. Dude has done awesome work.
