Afternoon everyone,

I wanted to go over a few points related to pricing, stats and the roadmap

Pricing

Sync for Lemmy is completely free with ads (the same as Sync for Reddit)
You can remove ads in the account picker or drawer for a one time fee of ~$20
Sync Ultra also removes ads but it's not required
I'll be working on regional prices over the coming weeks

There are now 24k installed users up from 100 the previous day!

I'm going to be spending the next few days going through all of the comments / messages and fixing any crashes.

As always thanks for the support and hope you're liking Sync!

I'm having trouble on pixel fold getting videos to autoplay when phone is unfolded and showing 2 columns. It only plays when folded and showing 1 column. Any chance there is a way to get videos to autoplay when unfolded?

dude, I have been feeling down since the other site went bananas... I just want to say thank you truly, this is game changer. I'm subscribing to ultra just to support you

I'm so happy to be back!

I spent a day in the official Reddit app, and it was miserable. So far I really like Lemmy, the content is much richer than I anticipated, and Sync makes me feel right at home, and the ads aren't too obtrusive (unlike the fucking Reddit app, Christ it's miserable) I think 20 for the equivalent-ish to pro is fair, but I am from a wealthier country, so my reference may be different to others. Ultra seems steep to me as well, but it's still way less than the official Reddit app lol.

So glad for the work you're doing, and excited for a new chapter of happy doomscrolling and community-building.

Will Sync eventually update my profile picture? Or do I have to log out and in again?

Hi, there isn't a submission button yet. So will ask here. Sorry

Pricing will this app make more money with advertising revenue from me or the one off payment?

I am lucky enough to have Google play credit so can pay but just wondering to pay it not to pay?

Thanks for a great app can't wait till it's all up to speed. Ty WP gg

How can I see hidden posts?

[–] Marcbmann@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

You did a great job! No bugs to report yet.

Sync was what I needed to use more lemmy! :D I don't know if I'm really used to how it looks and feels but other apps don't do it for me at least.

Thank you for all your work!
