Sync for Lemmy

No, no, no. You're not allowed to complain about a price hike from £2 to £19 even though the apps are basically the same in UX and concept and LJ was able to push out a semi functional beta in a matter of weeks. Because complaining about it makes you a 'baby' apparently and everyone should be willing to part with £19 without blinking, to buy an app to use a service that has barely gotten off the ground and nobody knows will be around in a year at this point. I understand people are excited, and people want to support LJ (I have, loads, over the years) but this community doesn't seem to even want a proper discourse about this and prefers to resort to shitty insults. Not sure that's the kind of community I can see myself growing into, personally. To me, that asking price is insanely greedy and a bit delusional considering there are other strong alternatives already popping up. I've been loyal to Sync for 10 years I think, but times are tough money is tight, and nobody knows if Lemmy is going to succeed yet. We need big numbers on this platform and keeping costs down would surely aid in that effort. But he must have done his calculations so I respect his decision. If he doesn't revert I'll have to look at the alternatives.
