Honestly that’s fair. There’s way less of a subscriber base here, development time is expensive, and you need to foresee circumstances for the future (look how many people Apollo dev had to refund). Sync is also such a great app, I’m personally just using the ad version at the moment on my android phone (and this is from Memmy on iOS). Sync is still one of the best apps I’ve ever used and keep an android phone just for it.

Why would anyone pay for this while there are better alternatives?

[–] Stovetop@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (2 children)

If there are better alternatives, I have yet to find them. Much happier right now than I was with Jerboa or Voyager.

Because "better" is entirely subjective and some people probably disagree with you that the options you feel are better are actually better.

Why would someone pay monthly for a social media app... That's more fucked than spez.

Yikes, that's really steep and puts a bit of a bad taste in my mouth, tbh. :(

I feel like the dev is trying to cash out, his apps good but reddit screwed him so I do kinda understand but he's priced me out.

[–] lorez@lemm.ee 16 points 2 years ago

It's a bit steep for my finances.

[–] flossdaily@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (2 children)

This Dev is so greedy that even if he adjusts his prices down to earth, I'll probably just skip it and wait for one of the other 3rd party Reddit app devs to come out with their lemmy versions.

What a turn off.

Yeah I'll just take the non intrusive ads on my feed.

It feels expensive, but I'm considering the annual. If I compare it to Netflix or Spotify. I spent way more time on this app

[–] protput@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Why is everyone comparing it so a service that has a ton of overhead like having to pay artists, tons of servers and storage, etc..
