Sync for Reddit pro cost me โ‚ฌ2.69 in 2015. โ‚ฌ23 is a bit of a step up.

[โ€“] ahornsirup@kbin.social 26 points 1 year ago

Yeah. I paid for Sync Pro and I'd gladly pay again (even though I've pretty much settled for Kbin), but I was expecting something like โ‚ฌ4.99 not โ‚ฌ21.99. Call me cheap but I'm not doing that.

Lemmy has maybe 0.1% of the users Reddit has.

The dev can't rely on tens of thousands of people paying a dollar, he needs thousands of people to pay ten dollars. Or whatever the equivalent is.

I feel like $10 would be a lot more reasonable than the $25 it costs here.

True, probably to adjust to how much the subscription model makes.

If you've ever used Infinity for Reddit, there is a version for Lemmy that just released too. It has no ads and is opensource.

Thanks, I saw it in another thread and installed it earlier. I'm mostly using Thunder because earlier it was the only client with haptic feedback, but it's a bit rough around the edges. I used to use Infinity for Reddit before.

I don't mind paying more since Lemmy is a smaller market but I'll wait for a sale I think.

I'm still probably going to hold out for Boost for Lemmy to come out, so I'm just on the $2/mo plan right now.

That's cool. 60 cent can of tomato soup now costs $3.50

My rent went from $850 to $2300

Do you think you should pay 2015 prices in 2023?

[โ€“] 018118055@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I expect the price to increase for sure. But still, I've got options and can choose.

[โ€“] Polar@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago

No one said you can't. Just don't be surprised when prices aren't 2015 prices.
