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 sure as hell like the app, but the issue of lemmy user base being smaller goes both ways unfortunately. I mean it makes sense for him to ask for more money to make up for it, but also at the same time it's less worth it because Lemmy's communities aren't nearly as active as their reddit counterparts. I'll probably use the app for a couple months and then pay to remove ads if I end up using it enough for the ads to annoy me.

Yeah and I think that's a fair take. I think most people are probably in a similar boat. I'm not willing to commit much money to Lemmy because it's such a new and untested platform so we will see.

For me so far I've yet to see a single advert on Sync anyway so I'm not exactly sure where they are supposed to be in the first place.
