Title! Sync has been my daily driver for over a decade now, and i’ve gotten far more than my money worth out of Pro & Dev. With the news of Sync for Lemmy, I’ve joined the Sync Lifetime club (long overdue tbh)
If you’ve gotten similar mileage & want to thank LJ for everything he’s done (and has committed to keep doing), lets make sure to thank him both publically and financially :)
Why buy a project that is going to get abandoned and get a cut to Google? Wouldn’t a direct donation and then buying the new app make more sense? Am I missing something?
You’re definitely missing something. Theres no announcement that Sync Ultra is being abandoned (presumably, as a subscription service, its brought along to the new app) & there doesn’t appear to be any other way to directly donate to LJ (i’ve asked)
Worst case scenario in which it doesn’t port over, I spent $30 on app that i’ve used daily without a subscription for over a decade. Good spend imo
You could sponsor him on patreon instead, it might even come with a few non-reddit perks: https://www.patreon.com/syncforreddit
Also a happy customer of Ultra Lifetime. Sync is my most used app on both my Android devices.
Its incredible how prominent this one app has been in my life. Most used app for me consistently since 2012.
