I fully agree! I have no idea why would I need to pay $20 for an app when I have a bunch of alternatives that I like even more. Welp, I even like to use a browser instead of an app sometimes. But people are excited and are going to Lemmy, which is a good thing
Damn I loved Sync for reddit. Paid like $3 for the pro version, removing ads. Not sure I can make myself pay $20 though. Something like $5-$8 would be more reasonable.
Not sure if you have tried voyager yet, but it has been great for me. It's a PWA, so you can install it to your phone homescreen from the browser. All of the kinks seem to be pretty ironed out by now.
Completely ad free and monetarily free, as well.
To be fair, though, I never used sync. I used RIF for reddit, and I haven't missed it since I found Voyager.
No one says you need to, in fact you don't, but many people keep bitching like they are forced to.
