Still too much in Australia. Sorry, want to support the work like on Sync for Reddit. But this app doesn't even have functionality to post yet and is $25 to remove ads. It just doesn't feel right considering it's the fediverse and there are no ads at the source.
I know you need to make a living. So you do what you need to.
Should be $24.99 AUD there and I'm just finishing up posting. The price in Australia is regionalised.
Yeah I noticed it had been changed. My feedback is that it's still too high. Sorry. The app is still in beta and missing major functionality. I think you may also need to look at some competitors as I haven't seen any priced like Sync and some are actually pretty damn good. I'm really enjoying Voyager for example.
I totally understand you need to make a living, but this isn't Reddit. And I'd rather put some of my money towards supporting the instances I use, rather than just in the app I use to access them.
I'm sure you're gonna do fine. You've got a great app and plenty of support. Just wanted to provide some honest feedback.
Damn, are there no decent Lemmy apps for android or something? On iOS Memmy is amazing and free with all the features.
I agree on Aussie pricing, itβs way too high considering our current cost of living. $10 maybe but most people wonβt pay $25 as they just donβt have that cash spare.
Honestly, there are actually some great apps on Android that are feature rich and I think all the others I know about are free too. I'm using Voyager and really liking it. Which is why I can't spend $25 on Sync. It's just way too much and despite having a great UI, is missing features like being able to submit a post.
Edit: To be clear, Sync is free with ads. Other apps I've tried are free and ad free.
Just added submit today.
I was so ready to drop $10-15 AUD without a thought, but at $25, I'm sticking with Connect.
