Interested in the lifetime membership but its so damn expensive!! Would wait to see how Boost is before deciding on which app I would be staying in.
That's for lifetime ultra. You can do a one time purchase to remove ads.
Yeah, I'll likely use Boost. It was the best reddit app.
Fingers crossed Relay joins the party.
The dev is sticking with Reddit to provide a sub model on Reddit unfortunately.
Last I heard they struck a deal with Reddit and are moving to a usage based subscription model, but I haven't seen the pricing posted anywhere. Anyways, doesn't seem like they're coming to Lemmy. That's the client I used too, but honestly I find all the clients comparable and I'm totally happy with sync. Unfortunately the foss options don't have the same stability and polish, but I'm happy to support a small developer with a one time fee.
Yeah, gotta kind of see if Lemmy catches on before investing that kind of money. I'd be much more likely to toss them $20 or something more reasonable
It does feel nice feeling home again after years of using Sync though. That official Reddit app is so clumsy.
$20 is what it takes to remove ads. Ultra is another subscription with different benefits altogether.
You can remove the ads for 20$ now
Profile -> remove ads
Liftoff and thunder are much nicer clients i feel but its subjective
I use liftoff but for some reason it does not allow cross instance commenting. I am on connect rn
I was keen to try Sync but, after I saw my first ads on Lemmy with it and then saw the cost to remove them, I uninstalled.
I'm actually really happy with Connect, which has everything I want and for free.
@Paisehla @d3Xt3r boost is dead now isn't it?
Mobilsm will have a cracked version soon. $115 is pure greed so he's not getting a cent off me anymore
