Pretty much title!

I’d love to support the developer, but I don’t feel like dropping $100 right now.

Development and hosting are different expenses, but they're still expenses. I also find it interesting that you call out the "content creators" as being on a certain level, but app creators aren't?

Not what I said at all. Just pointing out they're are completely different services.

[–] spongebue -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Different services in the context of one service making sense to pay for and another not

[–] yesterdayshero -4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No. Different service because they're a completely different offering.

A fairer comparison would be the cost of Sync to other Lemmy apps.

Are other apps being developed full time?

[–] yesterdayshero 1 points 1 year ago

What does "full time" mean? I've tried several and they're all still receiving updates. Jerboa, Voyager, Thunder.

That's the perfect example of why it's better to compare Sync to other Lemmy apps. If Sync is being developed "full time" then it might be a positive in comparison to an app that isn't. Hence, it potentially being worth the money compared to a cheaper or free app.
