Sync for Lemmy

Good thing there's Liftoff for Lemmy

I just bought a lifetime license for Sync. The customization, feature set, and options put it well above the 5 other Lemmy apps I've used. With almost a decade of consistent upgrades to Sync for Lemmy, I trust and support this developer.

I don't think I paid very much for the original version so I don't mind supporting him now but I understand that's not for everyone, so I think $20 for lifetime ad-free is very reasonable.

Im still looking which app is for me, but honestly sync seems like the best atm. I am hosting pihole so adds are just blank posts every now and then. It doesnt bother me, but I dont like it. I dont mind supporting devs, but adds and subscription can just stop me tbh. Im not saying it will, 22€ is not much for lifetime sub imo. It just feels like its not in lemmy spirit. If it was without adds I would probably never consider other app after trying sync and more likely donate. But yeah, I understand that donations are not reliable income

Shut up and take my money!

The idea of buying something when I haven't used it yet is kind of ridiculous, especially when the only option is an auto-renewing subscription service. If I could pay for a single month without having to figure out how and when I can cancel or it was a single purchase, I'd be more likely to give it a shot. Signing up for a subscription without knowing if the product is good just doesn't make sense to me

Add that to the fact that I have to pay to get the same no ads experience as many other free apps, that kinda rubs me the wrong way

I might shell out the money for ad free at some point, but right now I'm not confident that Lemmy will be relevant in a year. That said, the app is fantastic and I made it look exactly like the Reddit version of the app. It's just such a good app, I love it.
