      Yeah. I paid for Sync Pro and I’d gladly pay again (even though I’ve pretty much settled for Kbin), but I was expecting something like €4.99 not €21.99. Call me cheap but I’m not doing that.

          Pihole at home is blocking it so far. I’d like to pay the developer when the price is a bit more in range.

        Thanks, I saw it in another thread and installed it earlier. I’m mostly using Thunder because earlier it was the only client with haptic feedback, but it’s a bit rough around the edges. I used to use Infinity for Reddit before.

        I don’t mind paying more since Lemmy is a smaller market but I’ll wait for a sale I think.

      Lemmy has maybe 0.1% of the users Reddit has.

      The dev can’t rely on tens of thousands of people paying a dollar, he needs thousands of people to pay ten dollars. Or whatever the equivalent is.

    You can now make a one-time purchase to remove ads. You can find the option below the account switcher.

    Crazy how when it updated this morning, pay to remove ads was 12.99. I went back in and it’s now 19.99. Crazy.

        exactly. I think the dev is banking on all the craziness for an app, why not charge more for the early birds. Strike while the fire is hot. Good for him, but yea, I’ll wait. Lemmy itself isn’t that full grown yet to warrant it either.

      That $12.99 was for a year subscription and is still available as an option. $19.99 is the buy-once and have ads removed forever.

          The buy once option literally just appeared like an hour ago. The update just went live and didn’t exist before this update.

      What if we’ve already subscribed to Ultra but just want the one time payment?

        Can’t imagine he can handle all refunds for that reason. He won’t have time to work on the app.

        I imagine the dev hasn’t implemented subscription migration yet. Just cancel your subscription renewal and buy the one time option next year when your subscription ends.
