I’ve been using Sync for at least three years, and I’ve been a vocal advocate of the app, but I don’t feel right paying for ad free anymore.

I am unable to transfer my paid account to my new phone and yet Google continues to take out my $2.13 every month. I understand everyone needs time away sometimes but I don’t see how LJD feels right accepting people’s money while providing ZERO support for months on end, and never bothering to at least appoint a maintainer in his absence.

I see issues piling up with this app and I’m forced to look at ads while LJD does whatever he wants and takes my money. I feel stupid that I’ve been paying this man for years to provide a good experience just to be taken for a ride like this.

I had bought the lifetime pro back in the Reddit days, I paid for pro subscription while using Lemmy, and at this point I’m just done. I hate writing this post because I’ve been a happy, continual premium user of this app for literally years, but there’s only so much I can handle.

    I bought Sync 14 years ago for Reddit, it was a one shot payment. Same for Sync Lemmy, I bought it once for like 20$ and that’s it.

      Me too but I believe Sync for some time now has a Pro+ that has more features and is subscription based.
