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!

Just voicing my support for the work you've done so far and am happy to pay the $20. Honestly I was a little taken aback at first sight but thinking about how many years of service I got with the reddit app I'm happy to support the developer. I'll reiterate what I saw another commenter say and it would be nice if a small portion of the fee was used towards to the support of Lemmy as a whole as well. I want to see this continue and flourish. Thanks again to the developer for one smooth app.

I was taken a back by the prices at first too and I've made many comments how I still feel it's expensive, but bought it anyways because I am a long time user of Sync. I was mostly concerned about being able to convince others to buy it.

But the more I think about it, I feel it's deserved and I won't really complain about it anymore. It's such a great app and has earned it over the years. I still can't believe it's here on Lemmy. My brain really feels at home again. It's the good ol' days again.
