Is there a one time payment option to remove ads?
Or is sync ultra the only way to remove ads?
I would love to support sync, but the subscription fatigue is real.

$17/yr feels crazy expensive. After only a few years it’s the price of a AAA video game which obviously has an order of magnitude more development put into it. The money wouldn’t even be going towards Lemmy where the real costs are since they are the ones actually hosting it all…
Apps used to be, what, $5? Now everything’s a subscription and you end up paying 10x as much money if you use the app for just a few years. I will never buy into the subscription model for services that used to be single-payment. Never.
$1.29 forever
I miss the days when buying something was actually an option
Everyone and their mother thinks they’re a SaaS provider.
I’d rather it be that then what we used to deal with… 6 month old apps that never got any more updates because the dev has no incentive to keep developing it.
Ultimately if it earns more money, people will do it, and I can’t blame people for wanting to earn more money because I’m sure most of us would do the same in that position. Like sure £1.99 to perma remove ads is great but I’m sure you can’t retire on that as a dev lol.
$17 is almost 20% less than it will cost me to see OPPENHEIMER in 70mm IMAX. The former lasts a year, the latter 3 hours. Which will be more engaging? 🤔
Your point makes no sense. If we are going by amount of work per hour / price, if Oppenheimer costs 17$,then sync should cost like 2c…
How much of that ticket price went to the projectionist? I feel that would be the equivalent of Sync in this comparison since the actual hosting and creation of the content is elsewhere, Sync is just one person who shows it to you
