My excitement is tempered by two things, the ultra cost being a subscription (I get the "why" I just hate more subscriptions) and also the pretty crappy targeted adverts "consent" whereby you have to scroll through page after page of third party vendors to turn off the "legitimate" interest which is, let's be honest their way around consent by just ignoring what you want. That's put me right off in all honesty sorry.
I bought the yearly subscription.
One, I want to support devs making top tier clients for lemmy. Two, this stuff isn't free to do or maintain, as a dev, I recognize and appreciate that.
If someone comes out with a better client for cheaper, then I'll switch, otherwise, these terms are acceptable.
Sure, development isn't free, but $2 a month per user? That seems excessive for a free website that doesn't charge an API fee...
And does any of that make it over to the instance hosts? I'm genuinely asking.
