    If you purchased Sync for Reddit in the past, can you recover that purchase in the Sync for Lemmy?

    Sync is very well made in my opinion it’s one of the few apps out there which I truly think deserves my support.

      I bought sync pro and have sync for lemmy installed; there’s no way to activate pro right now, and afaik that option is not coming.

      Presently you can buy a permanent ad removal in-app for $20, you can subscribe to sync ultra for $17/yr, or you can use it free with ads.

      It’s a good app, and the dev absolutely deserves to make money. If I understand correctly, developing sync is his full-time job. The prices are definitely steeper than with sync for reddit, but Lemmy is a much smaller community. He can’t necessarily expect as many sales.

        In Sync for Lemmy, I currently see a lifetime sub of $99.99, so I’m waiting for the price to decrease or something because, like you said, since Lemmy is a smaller community that price tag is a bit steep at the moment. I hope it’s reduced or people who got lifetime in Sync for Reddit can get that purchase back. Thanks for the quick reply.

        In the lemmy community someone said that a one-time Pro version is coming later, once the app leaves beta

            Yo I just checked this.

            A hundred fucking dollars?

            Jesus christ, lemmy is still in a fledgling state compared to reddit i don’t care if you designed the most perfect app known to man, this is some insane overvaluation.

            That’s ultra, it’s not similar to what Pro was. Sync Pro was like 4 EUR. It removed the ads. Option to remove ads now is 22 EUR. A huge price increase. Ultra was 36 or so, now 100+. Again a huge price increase.

        You are correct. Upon further inspection, sync pro is something different and is only for support. Thank you!
