Sync Ultra is a very reasonable $17 a YEAR. YouTube Premium is reaching that per MONTH. I have sync downloaded and it was the first thing I did. Thanks lj for the beautiful app.

[EDIT: That was a poor comparison, as pointed out in the comments. Leaving it for discussion sake.

There are many counterpoints and actually good discussion happening down below. Even if you don't agree, thanks for showing me a different perspective!

If you want to support Sync, make sure to support the Lemmy Devs and your instance holders as well!

I just bought a lifetime license for Sync. The customization, feature set, and options put it well above the 5 other Lemmy apps I've used. With almost a decade of consistent upgrades to Sync for Lemmy, I trust and support this developer.

I don't think I paid very much for the original version so I don't mind supporting him now but I understand that's not for everyone, so I think $20 for lifetime ad-free is very reasonable.

20usd? It's 15000 jpy for me.. That's like 120usd for lifetime. Hard to justify that for an app tbh.

You are talking about the Ultra lifetime. Just ad free is $20 USD.

120usd for lifetime. Hard to justify that for an app tbh.

I've used Sync for Reddit since February 2015. Had I paid $120 for that time it would've been $1.25 per month. And with the amount of time I spent on reddit that would've been more than fair.

It really depends on what you're getting out of the app. And it's tough to say how Lemmy will develop so I'm cautious to buy a subscription let alone a lifetime sub now. But it could absolutely be justifiable.
