A fair opinion. However, FL studio mobile has a lot larger potential customers to sell to, which mean they can afford to set their unit price pretty low. Right now it has 500,000 downloads. Compare that to sync for Lemmy. Monthly active users of Lemmy is only around 100,000 users, less than total download of FL studio. Out of those 100,000 users, only a handful of them willing to buy a Lemmy app, even at $3. So the dev have no choice to increase the unit price accordingly to cover their cost.

That being said, the devs said he'll reduce the price as the number of active Lemmy users grow.

I find the argument ridiculous. And it will not sit well with early adopter if the price gone down instead of up lol.
