I have about 5 different apps installed right now, and while I plan to test them all out, curious what people's conclusions are thus far.

I am using Sync, and I paid for a year of it. A year from now, I'll evaluate and maybe pick something else. Do I care if it costs a tiny bit of $ for a solid app experience that performs better than the rest, because it has dedicated development resources? Nope. Having read the details on what data is collected, do I have privacy concerns? Nope. Do I think folks have gone a little over the top about certain things? Yes. Bad enough having to leave reddit without making it even more complicated.

The cost of lifetime is 6x the cost of one year. I can understand just getting one year to see how things go.

Ultra (subscription) and "no-ads" are two different options...no ads is a one time 20USD. Ultra includes additional features beyond the core app. It also has a lifetime option, which is the very expensive one.

for me is 20 lifetime no ads, 18 for one year ultra.

( in the last update there is now the option for one time pay for no ads )
