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!

      Yeah but the one-time purchase now is hardly another few dollars… Its $99 now, which is absurd.

      Edit: I see now that there is a $20 version to remove ads. Still would be great if they honored folks who paid for reddit’s syncpro, especially considering that version blocked reddit ads, and this version blocks ads inserted by the app itself.

        It blocked ads inserted by Sync. No third party app ever displayed reddit ads to my knowledge.

      :/ had to buy sync twice. Had it for a few years and one day it was like ! hey I’m not working anymore !

      A bit frustrating but honestly sync is worth chipping some money towards.

        I actually don’t see an option to buy it once at all, I’m not really wanting to pay a subscription lol

            There was an update that added a ad free one time payment or a lifetime ultra sub.

            I used sync for a loooong time on Reddit so…
