Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So how’s it going?
Hmm pretty steep. I’ll just use it with ads for a while and see how development goes
Yeah, it’s a bit chicken and egg isn’t it. If they don’t get the funding they won’t be motivated to continue development. But without the development people won’t want to pay.
Yeah I guess he has to make up for the much smaller user base of lemmy than reddit. I think the pricing might be localised already, seeing a lot of people listing different prices. It’s showing $37.99 for just remove ads for me, but $189.99 for lifetime Sync ultra, which is a bit much!!
It will just be normal Google Pay price localisation. It’s been a while since I did app store stuff but if I recall correctly you pick a price level say level 20, and this has it as 25USD, 25Euro, 30 pounds, 35CAD, etc. It would automatically do a rough exchange rate to NZD plus GST and this happens automatically without the developer having to pick a price in all 200+ countries/regions.
But yeah, the prices are high and it may just be cashing in on goodwill early on.
Thanks that explains it!
