Get yourself a guy who looks like Aragorn but cooks like Samwise. 😍

They’ve both got heart.

I was so ready to drop $10-15 AUD without a thought, but at $25, I’m sticking with Connect.

Australia

Under AUD$2 to AUD$34 is quite the leap, and more than double what I anticipated.

I was very happy to drop AUD$10-15, and I’m aware that what I paid in 20 dickity 13 was a steal.

Quadrupled app costs would have been a bargain in my eyes.

I understand that I got a magnificent deal on Reddit Sync - I think it was on sale at the time.

I was ready to happily drop $15 on the ad free, but this is more than double that.

Yep, I had my credit card out (figuratively) and was ready to buy the ad free version, just to support the dev - but I turned right around when I saw the price (AUD$34).

I don’t see ads either, it was literally just about the support for me. I’m weighing up whether to go back to Connect on principle, and if Adguard stops working on Sync, I’ll definitely just walk away.

To be fair, we are on a beta version!

Overall, mine has been working fairly smoothly.

I’m still weighing up whether to continue using Connect though, for a few reasons.

Crying in $34 Aussie dollaydoos.

A bit of a surprise; I know I was lucky to get the old Sync pro app for under $2 a decade ago, but wow.

Connect is free and fantastic, and the dev(s) are adding new features regularly. I’m a bit torn, as I loved Sync for Reddit and was happy to give my money again for Sync for Lemmy - just not quite that much of it.

I didn’t see the option at all last night. This morning the app updated, and now I see the remove ads option.

I’m having the opposite issue; my read posts have to be manually hidden, and then pop back into view when I reopen the app!

ETA: another comment in another post helped me resolve this. You need to login to the website of your instance and update your settings to uncheck “show read posts”.

Connect was hiding them in-app, and I’m sure LJ will do the same soon, but for anyone looking for a fix now - that will do it!

I’m seeing AUD$35 $33.99.

I paid AUD$1.91 ten years ago for “reddit sync pro” (I believe it was on sale).

I was expecting to pay around $10-$15 to block ads, so this is a bit of a shock.

Omg omg omg omg omg!

Eeeeeeeeeeee so excited!

Look, ma, I’m participating!

So stoked for Lemmington Syncings.

My body is ready! Or, well, my phone is.
