Sync Ultra is a very reasonable $17 a YEAR. YouTube Premium is reaching that per MONTH. I have sync downloaded and it was the first thing I did. Thanks lj for the beautiful app.

[EDIT: That was a poor comparison, as pointed out in the comments. Leaving it for discussion sake.

There are many counterpoints and actually good discussion happening down below. Even if you don't agree, thanks for showing me a different perspective!

If you want to support Sync, make sure to support the Lemmy Devs and your instance holders as well!

Totally agreed. Encourage more lost redditors and former reddit Sync users with a very low price point. Give it some sort of marketing hype term like "Founder's Premium", a one-time payment of $8 gets you sync for Lemmy with no ads, forever. Available to early adopters until Sept 1st.

Maybe add higher priced tiers for those who have the cash and want to essentially donate / thank the author.

Lemmy is already strange and unknown to a lot of folks. Sync feels like coming back to sit in your old favorite comfy chair, but in a totally new house that feels very foreign. So people are going to be wary. Asking them to either subscribe or pay a huge one time premium is going to discourage folks at a critical time where they should be encouraged instead.
