We’ll see if LJ responds, but I’m pretty sure it’s been established that none of the Reddit licensing is carrying over. I’m in a similar boat to you in that regard.
I can understand subscriptions not transferring over but Lifetime should, it’s definitely a different type of thing. Changing ~10% of the codebase to use a different API isn’t exactly a new app either
Edit: The new lifetime subscription is $115! WTF? Been using the app for 10 years and have always paid, this is a pure cash grab, what a joke.
Yarr, tis off to Mobilism I go for the cracked version. Smell ya later, LBJ or whatever your name is
$99/US for Ultra Lifetime, $20 for “just” Ad Free Lifetime.
I’m actually used to the opposite. Subscriptions I would kind of expect to carry over, because they were intended to cover a very specific length of time, independent of any versioning. Any lifetime or one time purchases are exactly the ones that I would expect to not carry over. ( Even though I would love for them to. ) Because in modern day, lifetime mostly gets interpreted as the lifetime of the major version or product. It’s not really even meant as a defense, just an acknowledgment that that is the norm, for better or worse.
