Nice of "Dawson" to think to formally add that after people already signed up for subscriptions and others started calling him out on it. There was no reason Sync needed to release today if that option wasn't prepared, and if it was seriously being considered, maybe he should of notified users in the app before they started spending money.
It's still in beta. Beta doesn't mean feature-complete.
Given the popularity of the app, waiting for perfection wasn't going to make sense. With sync, I have near parity on features with Jerboa, a smoother experience and what's lacking will be added.
Also, why put the dev's name in quotes? It just makes things look hateful. Full name is ljdawson... but that's the dev's name.
I'm not entitled to another's labor for free. Some may choose to give it, but I'm not entitled to it. And if I like something, I expect there's a cost. If it makes me happy enough, I pay.
