Sync for Reddit pro cost me โฌ2.69 in 2015. โฌ23 is a bit of a step up.
Yeah. I paid for Sync Pro and I'd gladly pay again (even though I've pretty much settled for Kbin), but I was expecting something like โฌ4.99 not โฌ21.99. Call me cheap but I'm not doing that.
Lemmy has maybe 0.1% of the users Reddit has.
The dev can't rely on tens of thousands of people paying a dollar, he needs thousands of people to pay ten dollars. Or whatever the equivalent is.
I feel like $10 would be a lot more reasonable than the $25 it costs here.
True, probably to adjust to how much the subscription model makes.
If you've ever used Infinity for Reddit, there is a version for Lemmy that just released too. It has no ads and is opensource.

Pihole at home is blocking it so far. I'd like to pay the developer when the price is a bit more in range.
I'll probably buy the adfree version eventually
Thanks, I saw it in another thread and installed it earlier. I'm mostly using Thunder because earlier it was the only client with haptic feedback, but it's a bit rough around the edges. I used to use Infinity for Reddit before.
I don't mind paying more since Lemmy is a smaller market but I'll wait for a sale I think.
I'm still probably going to hold out for Boost for Lemmy to come out, so I'm just on the $2/mo plan right now.
That's cool. 60 cent can of tomato soup now costs $3.50
My rent went from $850 to $2300
Do you think you should pay 2015 prices in 2023?
I expect the price to increase for sure. But still, I've got options and can choose.
No one said you can't. Just don't be surprised when prices aren't 2015 prices.
