I’m loving Sync so far. I used the official reddit app ever since I was on Reddit. I sure was missing out.

I saw on the left bar there’s two options “Remove ads” and “Sync Ultra”. What’s the difference? I understand ultra is a subscription that gets ad free browsing and more. However, remove ads looks to be a single purchase “add-on”, i.e. no subscription. Is that the case? That would be nice down the line when sync for lemmy gets an official stable release.

There’s also a price difference. Ultra is 1.99$/mo or 16.99$/yr, and remove ads is 12.99$.

    Lemmy still has a lot less users than reddit. The dev can’t rely on tens of thousands of users to buy the app for $1 each. I think he’s doing a great job with this app and I don’t mind supporting him.

    Also, the addition of Sync to the lemmy ecosystem will draw a ton of new people in and help grow the platform.

      I understand that I got a magnificent deal on Reddit Sync - I think it was on sale at the time.

      I was ready to happily drop $15 on the ad free, but this is more than double that.
