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 went ahead and bought a year because I want to support this project. I am hoping by the time that’s due to expire, there will be non-subscription options
That’s a mature approach to this, and one that I agree with. I didn’t think the pricing too steep. I can agree, I don’t like having subscriptions if I can avoid it. But less than $20 a year… its nothing for an app ill likely use every day (and not owned by a mega corporation)
As much as I like the app, after currency conversions that’s a lot, especially as a recurring subscription. For a one time fee, I’d just want to remove ads without any extra bells and whistles.
