I think now is a great time to remind everyone, like sync’s developer, Lemmy’s developers need to be paid too! The amount of time all the devs put into making lemmy exist, in my opinion, should be worth some of your money. If you can afford it, donating to the people who develop lemmy and/or the people keeping your home instance up will accelerate the incredible growth of lemmy!

    Dude, you don’t have to buy ultra. It’s for people who want bonus features and support the dev.

    This is like refusing to buy a Volkswagen because they also make Lamborghinis

      you don’t have to buy ultra

      Then don’t put it in the app. Simple as that.

      It’s 2023, we’re really debating over pricing in a FOSS Android app that just so happens to host a website/forum that just got popular only because people don’t like the other main big internet forum?

        What? Just because you don’t want to pay doesn’t mean no one else does.

        Also sync isn’t FOSS

          Literally nobody would pay over $100 for an app.

          And no but the service is.
