I used Sync Pro for years but I've found the connect app to be pretty close.
So yeah I'd probably have used sync for lemmy if it was priced similarly to the Reddit one but I've no interest in paying 10 times more to remove ads or any type of subscription.
The prices are super harsh. >€20 just to remove ads. €19/year for the subscription.
I get that they have much less potential users to spread their costs on, but that's too much for the added benefit over e.g. connect.
I am on the free version and it looks and feels exactly the same as my sync pro for reddit.
I'm not seeing any ads on the free version lol where are they
I'm not seeing any either, but that's because I have an ad blocker. But still, €20 for removing ads is a massive amount.
I'm not using a DNS ad-blocker and I've only seen two or three ads over hours on the service. I personally find that tolerable, but to each their own.
Yeah exactly. Sync pro doesn't have any.
