If they converted them into self custody Bitcoin then they’d have keys to their wallet!

Is that because it’s harder to notice?

No clue lol. But I’m sure it’s possible.

Me too. I can’t wait for the next subject of Lemmy drama! It makes me feel alive! 😂

Instead of seeing it as a charge to remove ads, maybe look at it as buying the ad free app from the dev? That’s how I see it. And giving people the option to use the app for free with ads is IMO a decent trade off.

It was cheaper on Reddit yeah. But after years and years of enjoyment from my most used app, I’m happy to pay whatever he asks for the new version for Lemmy.

Can’t wait for Sync to let me login to my kbin account too! Also, I greatly prefer kbins showing the upvotes and downvotes on posts, wish Lemmy had that…

I too dream of a world where we’ve moved on from capitalism to a socialist utopia like is in the United Federation of Planets, but we are not currently in that world. So until that time, we all have to earn a living to pay our landlords and feed ourselves.
For most things we are given a choice between ads or paying, and I almost always choose paying for no ads as I can’t stand them either. But until developers can live without bills and only do work for free because they enjoy it, our choice remains pay for no ads or be served ads. So I paid for no ads.

My reply to all the naysayers:
Thanks for making Lemmy feel like home, it wouldn’t without you!
The reality is it’s a free world, regardless of what morality you put on things there are going to be things that happen that you don’t like. That’s life.
Like it or not Lemmy has had explosive growth because of apps like Sync. Because of them being killed off by Reddit. If it weren’t for the drama of Reddit doing that, I and millions of other users wouldn’t be here right now as we’d still be on Reddit.
Even people who weren’t using the 3rd party apps left Reddit because Reddit’s actions left a bad taste in their mouths.
So, morality of one guy charging for his honest work in creating the paid or ad supported app aside, you should be thanking the apps including sync for helping drive so many users to Lemmy.
If you yourself don’t want to use a paid app, then that’s okay! We’re all allowed to respond or react to things how we want, but being incredibly divisive for something that a lot of people wanted and that really is inconsequential is almost universally frowned on.
Just let people do what they want and don’t shoot them down for it. More options for browsing Lemmy = more Lemmings = more content.
Much love my dudes! We may disagree on this but we agree on many many many more things I’m sure, just because we’re on Lemmy instead of Reddit in the first place is proof of that! ✌️

Oh man, Sync is just so great and only $20 to get no ads you should give it a try!

Shhhh. I couldn’t find an equivalent meme with Android (I didn’t even notice TBH), so pretend I hacked an iPhone to run android 😂.

Shit! The meme is using the wrong phone! It’s meaning is lost!!!
