Made my second on the Swedish instance. Enjoying it immensely right away.

Nope. Yearly. But I used the pricing for me, in Sweden. Seems the conversion rate is a bit off. Because my price is 19 dollars per year and the price for Lifetime is at 117 dollars.

No app is worth that, sorry.

15 bucks? So the conversion rate to Swedish kronor is messed up then. Because my yearly fee is way more than that. If I earned 42k dollars and continued to live in my house with my family we would be insanely well off.

This is by far the best app for Lemmy. By a mile. It’s a lot faster and nicer looking. That said, pricing feels a little steep. Imagine being able to sustain your livelihood on making an app for Lemmy, an otherwise free service providing no additional content. It’s not like we are paying the persons who invest in all the infrastructure for the servers running the Lemmy instances. They provide for the actual service. If a part of the money went to instance servers it would feel way better. Because if they go down, so will Sync.

Not taking anything away from the massive work Lj is putting into this, but pricing do feel a tad off. If 1500 people subscribe he has a yearly income equal to a decent job. If he gets 5000 subs he will earn almost 100 000 dollars a year. Which in Sweden equals to about 2.5 times of a well paid job. That’s excluding ad revenue from everyone who don’t subscribe or pay for removing ads. Pricing can be fairer without compromising the livelihood of said dev. That’s all.

Can’t imagine he can handle all refunds for that reason. He won’t have time to work on the app.

I’m right with you. Sync was the only reason I even started using Reddit. I happily paid the onetime fee and I’m more than happy to do it again. If the sub actually covered costs to keep Lemmy-instances running it would be one thing but that’s not the case now. Let’s see how it all paves out.

Maybe even more!

Doesn’t have to be the most expensive app I’ve ever bought though. While also collecting and selling data. Right? Don’t get me wrong, I love Sync. I just feel it went a bit overboard.

Yeah he should be able to get a decent amount in the pocket for the huge work he is putting in.

Using Voyager and the devs have been more than awesome. I don’t encounter any bugs on Android. Still gonna throw my money at Sync when it arrives though. Sync was the only reason I even used reddit. A bit wierd but before I stumbled on the Sync I couldn’t even stand reddit. I was a Sync user, not a reddit user.

Is writing the words “Fight Club” considered talking about Fight Club? If so, I never did it.

You and me both! I wouldn’t be able to test feedback a lot tho so prob for the best :)

You should try Voyager again. It wasn’t the best day one when migrating from Reddit but right now I feel it’s turned out to be undisputed.

Voyager (former wefwef) quickly turned out the best. Good updates every day just made the experience the best. Go to their webpage from your browser of choice and install it from there.

Or Voyager. Less bugs.

Yes but it requires a certain behave-ability. Everyone who wanna check knows it’s me now. It’s a bit scary.

Yeah some topics are a bit tough with loads of communities spread across different instances/servers. But overall it’s alright.

I wonder what the first topic of Mondays meeting at Reddit HQ will be? And if the overall feeling is gonna be positive or negative? Oh I wonder.

Did you try Sync? I think I tried all reddit apps but never really got around to actually use reddit on a regular basis until I found Sync.

Be a gal or lad and try it when released. Best dev.
