As someone from a third world country, fuck no. That shit is too expensive for me. Maybe to you privileged folk it's reasonable. To me it's nonsense.
I feel shitty about it too since I was a long time sync pro user, I thought sync for lemmy would also have an affordable pro version but fuck me I guess
Bro, go away. I've seen you way more than I want
Lol I'm a bit stoned and this made me laugh. I love how you spoke to that person like they were your sibling.
You actually have the only reasonable response in this thread
Living in a first world country is not "privilege" there are people who didn't choose where to be born.
Just use the free app like I did when I lived in Venezuela (I was born there)
Privilege is not something necessarily gained on purpose. Being born to a wealthy family is privilege and not a choice either, but there is undeniable privilege. It's not a negative thing, it's something one should be aware of where they may have it and recognize it. It's not something to feel guilty over, it just.. is.
Dude you don't know what privilege means huh
Buddy that is literally the definition of privilege
Another Venezuelan here. Im still living here.
Dude, delet this
Ultra =! Pro
Adfree is available as a separate lifetime purchase for 10 USD.
You have countries where people don't earn $1 a day. Once they cover their basic needs, $10 is like wining the lottery.
It's where Youtube does better. The price of premium is adapted to the local situation.
I've been working in developing aid for ages, and while true that there are places where people earn below $1, those people hardly have smartphones.
And if they do, they can use the ad supported version just fine.
"People have a right to ad free social media!" would be hard to fit on a sign.
Still too expensive.
I've used sync for reddit just over 12 years long. If I get the same time out of lemmy, that's 80 cents per year.
If that's too much for you, I can't help you.
'Remove ads' is โน2000 ($24.17) in India.
Wait a couple days, regional pricing is not working yet. That's a Google problem.
I hope that's the case
Where is the one time purchase?
Did you upgrade to beta 25 yet? Generally you might wait a few more days until all the pricing stuff is working properly, google is still rolling it out.
The dev has said that he's working on making pricing regional in the next few weeks.
