I owned Sync for reddit on 3 different accounts and have paid for ad free on Sync for Lemmy. You've made an amazing app that really just ticks all my boxes.

Would you consider taking the ability to tag out of the subscription plan? My UI is incredibly simple and tags really help me to recognize people who have seemed fake, been antagonistic, etc.

I could just block these people, but I use blocking as an absolute last option because every opinion has value, regardless if it aligns with mine. So unless they are outright hostile or I have enough reason to think they're a bot, I don't want to block, but I do want to remember who's who.

I wouldn't really benefit from any other subscription features, and I can't justify a monthly fee just for tags.

Hope you consider it!

That's very noble of you, I block people just for having an anime avatar.

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There are avatars?

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

As far as I'm concerned, no. Just like that other place.

Oh wow, he locked tags behind a paywall? Damn, that's not how it was for SfR. Just put the tag syncing behind the paywall, ljd, no need to completely take away a previously free feature!

[โ€“] ljdawson 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's stored on the cloud and synced with ultra. Previously sync had two systems and the old one was falling apart.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Could local tags be a free feature? Ultra required to back up and restore? I think many dedicated taggers would still spring for it.

[โ€“] ljdawson 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

At the moment I don't plan on bringing it back. Like I said I just ripped out that old system.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Please either create a local storage for tags that then gets synced to the cloud when you have ultra or remove the tag button when you don't have ultra. It just taunts you otherwise.

[โ€“] GardenVarietyAnxiety 5 points 2 years ago

Yep. Very bummed.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Just out curiousity, what would be the replacement for Ultra uses current and in the future (so it needs to be attractive) and how long will it take you to code it?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Can't you buy the lifetime subscription then?

[โ€“] GardenVarietyAnxiety 7 points 2 years ago

Would you pay that much for a single feature in an app?

[โ€“] Kbobabob 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is that a thing? I only saw the subscription option.

[โ€“] FederatedSaint 3 points 2 years ago

Yep I bought it a week or so ago. It was right next to the monthly subscription option. It was $99 at the time.

[โ€“] Fwow13 3 points 2 years ago

It's an 99 USD option.

[โ€“] CrayonRosary 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Jesus, just block them. You're not preventing them from having an opinion just because you block them.

[โ€“] GardenVarietyAnxiety 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't want to block them? Has nothing to do with their feelings.

The day I can't handle opposing opinions will be the day I leave the internet.
