I did a poll and nearly 30% of the people who voted said they used Sync! It's stayed around that percent the whole time too!
EDIT: Here is the poll I forgot to put this here like five times lol https://strawpoll.com/wby5A21R1yA

After reading this I decided to try it out. Within 5 posts there were ads. No thanks, I'll stick with Connect.
Edit: I was scrolling everything and replied. I didn't see this was in the official community. My opinion doesn't matter in here. I think it's great that sync is successful and I hope it continues. So yea, keep on keeping on.
I've used sync for almost ten years now... I think it's worth the fee to remove ads. But sure, there are ads.
It's strange, both on Sync for Reddit and Sync for Lemmy I've always seen the space for ads, but never an actual ad showing in that space. So I just get random black spaces between posts
Sync on reddit also inserts ads in image gallerys i think.
Pretty sure you're right there, Imgur galleries used to contain ads when viewed in Sync
