What's the difference between "Remove ads" and "Sync Ultra"? (lemmy.world)

I'm loving Sync so far. I used the official reddit app ever since I was on Reddit. I sure was missing out.

I saw on the left bar there's two options "Remove ads" and "Sync Ultra". What's the difference? I understand ultra is a subscription that gets ad free browsing and more. However, remove ads looks to be a single purchase "add-on", i.e. no subscription. Is that the case? That would be nice down the line when sync for lemmy gets an official stable release.

There's also a price difference. Ultra is 1.99$/mo or 16.99$/yr, and remove ads is 12.99$.

It's unfortunate that the price is up, but it's better than spending for a subscription for ad removal.

Is it better than just, you know, not using sync? This isn’t Reddit. There aren’t ads here.

I understand. I was using liftoff and that was pretty good for me (still have it as a backup). I also tried jebora and connect. Sync is definitely the most polished, even in beta. I'm not going to remove ads until I know I want to stick with sync, but it definitely feels like I'm headed that way.

Try the kbin PWA. The only thing I miss is the ability to collapse comments and that’s coming.

PWA?

Progressive web app, it's like adding an app from your internet browser. Kinda like a bookmark.
