It would be awesome if it did haha, I paid $2 for Sync way back in 2014 and used it nonstop, but I think that I've seen that Sync for Lemmy was going to be, for all intents and purposes, entirely separated from Sync for Refdit
To build on what other people are saying, the $100 also is supposed to cover the cost of running servers and networks that the app has to use for the more unique, advanced features. Those are all things that will cost the developer to keep up and running - it's honestly nice that you even have the option to pay for lifetime since, once you've used the app for six years, the dev is going to start losing money off of your using the app.
I think it may be a bug, but I have not seen a single ad so far. There's not even a spot for ads to appear. I had Sync Pro on Reddit so it has been the exact same experience I had on that
Yeah I guess you're right on that. I still don't mind its usage in the episode since she acknowledges that she wouldn't normally go along with something like that and since she does lead the charge in keeping him alive when they find out it is a problem, but I can see how somebody wouldn't enjoy it. I hope the rest of the season is better and can give you some stuff to enjoy!
I don't really agree that she was dumb in last week's episode. If I recall correctly, they didn't know how life threatening the binging was until after Fry was too far gone to immediately be saved, and once they did know the problem, she was at the forefront of keeping him alive.
I used to use it and I've seen other people use it just fine and have no issues. I personally don't like the web app UI when I'm on mobile, but that's not a dig at the web UI and more a matter of preference.
$99.99 which comes out to about 6 years of paying the yearly fee. I paid $5 for Sync back in 2014 and I got 9 years of free updates and no ads until reddit killed sync.
If you're planning to use Lemmy for at least six years, the $100 is a steal, especially since I feel we can reasonably expect the same level of quality of life improvements and updates that Sync got with Reddit.
Feels like OP is referring to the more direct hate that Sync is getting on other posts that this post, while not hating directly, definitely taps into.
Loving the app. I've been using Connect for the past few weeks after trying Jerboa and also just storing the website as a PWA on my phone and they just don't compare for me.
Only thing I am looking forward to left is the ability to submit posts from the app. I haven't submitted a lot to Lemmy, but I feel like I'll be able to post more when Sync gets that feature added.
If you require a hammer to do work, you just buy a hammer that you can use for the rest of time or until you buy a better hammer.
You don't pay $10 dollars a month for the rest of time for the same hammer you could have just paid for previously. Especially since HammerCo might up the price, go out of business, or flat out stop offering the hammer subscription you rely on, and you lose access to your vital resource.
You should look into hosting a Plex server for her. My brother set one up after I cancelled our Netflix and our tech-illterate mother loves it. The only change for her was moving from clicking on the Netflix icon on her TV to clicking on the Plex icon.
