Afternoon everyone,

I wanted to go over a few points related to pricing, stats and the roadmap


Pricing

  1. Sync for Lemmy is completely free with ads (the same as Sync for Reddit)

  2. You can remove ads in the account picker or drawer for a one time fee of ~$20

  3. Sync Ultra also removes ads but it’s not required

  4. I’ll be working on regional prices over the coming weeks


There are now 24k installed users up from 100 the previous day!

I’m going to be spending the next few days going through all of the comments / messages and fixing any crashes.

As always thanks for the support and hope you’re liking Sync!

I think the pricing is fine if the quality matches it. Considering how much time we spend on our phones it could be great value for money.

I’m very curious to see how the advertising option works out for you, as currently I’m not aware of any lemmy sites with sustainable finance models.

I wouldn’t call it financially sustainable. It pays for the servers, not for the labor.

No offense to beehaw, they’re doing great work.

Most of FOSS doesn’t pay for labor, its volunteers.

That level of transparency is incredible, lowkey considering making an account there…

They’re defederated with lemmy.world and https://sh.itjust.works/. It’s something to consider before joining

I definitely wouldn’t, you’d lose out on half the content on lemmy

They like to keep a really tight walled garden. That’s why I left, I want to decide for myself which instances to block.

Lemmyworld is quite transparent too: https://opencollective.com/mastodonworld
