I would much prefer this piece of shit die in obscurity, thanks

A lot of us here came from Boost for Reddit, where we had bought it there so we bought the Lemmy version too and never seen ads.

I'm a big fan of open-source but sometimes it's worth throwing the $3.50 for a proprietary app that works well, especially with how the Lemmy app landscape looked a year ago. It's better now, but I like how Boost works and have used it for years on Reddit.

The only free app that's somewhat close to Boost's presentation is Jerboa, and Jerboa is just a bit too buggy for my taste.
