Didn’t have to think twice to get Sync Ultra lifetime for the amazing value Sync has been in my life the past 10 years. Even paid for previous Sync for Reddit versions. Easy decision. Thanks LJ

Now B is a cause I can get behind…

As a sync user I support this and would like to see it lol

Like @skye pointed out, I suspect it might indeed be based on region. I remember another thread where a user reported seeing Sync rated at 3 stars, whereas others reported 5 stars.

Top 6 app behind X (still can’t get used to that stupid name) and before Facebook lite… not bad

I guess it’s a matter of perspective and subjective. I see it as paying back for a decade of practically free Sync experience for Reddit that I absolutely enjoyed, and as such I’m compensating the dev for that. Not saying others should apply the same logic (they shouldn’t). But it being a scummy practice is really up to what posting users interpret as value.

Same. The current price of Sync Ultra lifetime distributed over a decade of some of the best, consistent and polished experience I’ve seen in an app is gladly something I’d pay (and have already paid) just to support and thank lj

And that’s a perfectly fine and respectable position to have. In the mean time, I’m gonna go find where I can enter my credit card

I might be wrong, but I remember reading somewhere in the play store that the rating is also based on a per geography and similar device types…

Where do I enter my credit card?

My first post back on Sync… I’ve never felt this type of euphoric sensation for an app before

Lemmy is following the same maturity curve as any social media platform. The early days of Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, or any platform you can think of had major growth and development early on, and were fine.

Delaying to avoid hypothetical misunderstanding will simply lead to missed opportunity to get users to the app, and delayed maturity of the app.

Let people join, make their decision to leave/stay. As the platform grows, users will as well.

That first one could also probably be spun into an nsync reference lol

I’m currently juggling 3 different apps to find one that works best for me (Jerboa, Connect, wefwef.app via Hermit, and excitedly waiting for Sync for Lemmy). I’m also experimenting with setting up my own instance to learn more about federation.

I love the principle/values of Lemmy, what it stands for, being part of a growing platform and learning about it. But when I’m just looking for mindless time-wasting content to kill boredom, I find myself missing the quality of experience, the communities, the level of engagement and diversity content from Reddit. Many subreddits I used to follow for “dumb” content simply don’t exist on Lemmy, and I doubt it will gain inertia on Lemmy.
