Made my second on the Swedish instance. Enjoying it immensely right away.

Sweden. And please double check the regional Ultra prices when you have the time, they seem way off to me.

Smaller userbase of nearly 30 000 users in 24 hours. Sync will be huge!

I'm gladly paying. Just not 117 dollars for the experience to be ad free which is what the app wants me to pay in Swedish kronor.

You are 100% correct. I just went off of my own view and what is good and not where I live.

This is insane to me. You can live in so many other countries with as high, or higher living standards and live the good life with that money.

Nope. Yearly. But I used the pricing for me, in Sweden. Seems the conversion rate is a bit off. Because my price is 19 dollars per year and the price for Lifetime is at 117 dollars.

No app is worth that, sorry.

15 bucks? So the conversion rate to Swedish kronor is messed up then. Because my yearly fee is way more than that. If I earned 42k dollars and continued to live in my house with my family we would be insanely well off.

This is by far the best app for Lemmy. By a mile. It's a lot faster and nicer looking. That said, pricing feels a little steep. Imagine being able to sustain your livelihood on making an app for Lemmy, an otherwise free service providing no additional content. It's not like we are paying the persons who invest in all the infrastructure for the servers running the Lemmy instances. They provide for the actual service. If a part of the money went to instance servers it would feel way better. Because if they go down, so will Sync.

Not taking anything away from the massive work Lj is putting into this, but pricing do feel a tad off. If 1500 people subscribe he has a yearly income equal to a decent job. If he gets 5000 subs he will earn almost 100 000 dollars a year. Which in Sweden equals to about 2.5 times of a well paid job. That's excluding ad revenue from everyone who don't subscribe or pay for removing ads. Pricing can be fairer without compromising the livelihood of said dev. That's all.

Tried it out a long time ago. Leveled up a bit but realised I could spam one dungeon over and over and level real fast.. and after that I felt lost and eventually quit. How is the controller support?

Can't imagine he can handle all refunds for that reason. He won't have time to work on the app.

I'm right with you. Sync was the only reason I even started using Reddit. I happily paid the onetime fee and I'm more than happy to do it again. If the sub actually covered costs to keep Lemmy-instances running it would be one thing but that's not the case now. Let's see how it all paves out.
