I got the lifetime sync ultra subscription for the reddit app for 34.99 after getting the ad-free version and then the pro version because I really liked it. I only used it for half a year, but hey, I guess that's the gamble you take with lifetime subscriptions. I now see that the lifetime subscription is โฌ114.99?! Is this a mistake? What is going on here?
If I compare it to the 18.99 a year price, it'd take over 6 years to break even. If I compare it to the old 11.99 price, it'd take over 9.5 years. I just don't understand the logic here.
6 years to break even is probably a bit much, maybe 2-3
But it's your choice if you want to use it or not. I'm happy using the app with ads
Your lifetime is probably longer than 10 years.
Mine is, but the app might not be.
Proof: Sync for Reddit Ultra Lifetime lasted around half a year.
Also remember it was Reddit that decided Sync's lifetime, not LJ.
