Is there a one time payment option to remove ads?

Or is sync ultra the only way to remove ads?

I would love to support sync, but the subscription fatigue is real.

$17/yr feels crazy expensive. After only a few years it's the price of a AAA video game which obviously has an order of magnitude more development put into it. The money wouldn't even be going towards Lemmy where the real costs are since they are the ones actually hosting it all...

Apps used to be, what, $5? Now everything's a subscription and you end up paying 10x as much money if you use the app for just a few years. I will never buy into the subscription model for services that used to be single-payment. Never.

Everyone and their mother thinks they're a SaaS provider.

I'd rather it be that then what we used to deal with.. 6 month old apps that never got any more updates because the dev has no incentive to keep developing it.
