Afternoon everyone,

I wanted to go over a few points related to pricing, stats and the roadmap

Pricing

  1. Sync for Lemmy is completely free with ads (the same as Sync for Reddit)

  2. You can remove ads in the account picker or drawer for a one time fee of ~$20

  3. Sync Ultra also removes ads but it's not required

  4. I'll be working on regional prices over the coming weeks

There are now 24k installed users up from 100 the previous day!

I'm going to be spending the next few days going through all of the comments / messages and fixing any crashes.

As always thanks for the support and hope you're liking Sync!

Lj

That level of transparency is incredible, lowkey considering making an account there...

They're defederated with lemmy.world and https://sh.itjust.works/. It's something to consider before joining

Also worth noting at the time they said it was temporary and due to the lack of sufficient mod tools available in Lemmy. If mod tools improve that could change. But yes, right now it's definitely something to think about with world being a massive instance that m with a lot of larger communities.

I definitely wouldn't, you'd lose out on half the content on lemmy

[โ€“] sgtlighttree@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, I read about that too, but what if I make an account on an instance that isn't world or beehaw? Would I see content from both?

[โ€“] Polar@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They like to keep a really tight walled garden. That's why I left, I want to decide for myself which instances to block.

Lemmyworld is quite transparent too: https://opencollective.com/mastodonworld

[โ€“] sgtlighttree@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wonder if that's shared with lemmy.world or if that data is just for the Mastodon service?

[โ€“] Blaze@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

Shared with Lemmyworld AFAIK
