Twenty dollars one time in a world of subscriptions for an app you use hours a day really isn’t that bad. Think how much you spend on other luxuries in your day to day and $20 doesn’t get you that much.
I also spend my days drinking tap water and breathing air. You can't say that because you use something every day that you have to pay an inflated price for it. Other developers also spend a lot of time on their apps and don't ask these absurd prices.
Honestly I far prefer outrageous prices for good stuff than "small" monthly fees everything is going to. I'd rather pay $50 than $2 per month. If Lemmy gets as popular as reddit, I will end up using it a ton and $20 really is small for all that.
You do realize how big of an if this is? Even for Lemmy to reach a fraction of Reddit's popularity. I want it to happen as much as you do, but let's be real here.
