Damn I loved Sync for reddit. Paid like $3 for the pro version, removing ads. Not sure I can make myself pay $20 though. Something like $5-$8 would be more reasonable.
I hear you but I also paid like $3-5 for pro and used it daily for years. It probably works out to pennies per month if you do the math. I don't get the sense LJDawson is lighting cigars with $100 bills. With the old model he got paid the price of a coffee... once. I'd imagine that a subscription model at least guarantees him a somewhat regular income stream that hopefully helps beyond beer money every so often
Not sure if you have tried voyager yet, but it has been great for me. It's a PWA, so you can install it to your phone homescreen from the browser. All of the kinks seem to be pretty ironed out by now.
Completely ad free and monetarily free, as well.
To be fair, though, I never used sync. I used RIF for reddit, and I haven't missed it since I found Voyager.
