What I find hilarious is that the Sync dev could have simply made a $5/month subscription for the Reddit app and continued on making a fortune from Reddit's product, but instead told people to come here where there are no API costs.............and then starts charging a subscription fee and massive one off payment lol. Oh and the app also has ads if you don't pay, despite Lemmy itself not having ads lol

Just making a living from his great app. Completely fair.

You can get rid of ads with a one-time payment of 19.99$. Not a 'massive one off payment' at all. I have the subscription though cuz I want to support this fastastic app and dev.
