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$.

As a former sync user, I think the price jack is going to lead me to abandon this developer and app.

He could have at least offered a discount for "grandfathered" users, but this move looks way too greedy. Plenty of other apps that are decent.

I see it the opposite way... I think Ljdawson realized there was no way to cover his costs with the sync for Reddit pricing. I paid the $19.99 gladly. Trust me he's not getting rich, he's earning a living.
