On top of all that there’s an ongoing subscription service to use the premium features of the app. I’d happily pay $10-$20 one time for the app, but there’s no way in hell I’m paying monthly for a bit of scrolling when Jerboa does the same stuff with no ads for free.
Lj has states he intends to introduce a one time payment for ad removal in the near future. People getting huffy over a 6-pack a year fee can rest easy soon enough.
yeah same here, sticking to jerboa for now. I hope it’s not going to be the same for boost for lemmy.
does anyone know if the privacy policy is only for the “free” version of sync? app store says the free version has ads too, I guess you can buy it at some point to get rid of them.
it’s only used by third parties like admob.
if you’re a paying user, admob library is not loaded at all, and crashlytics can be disabled in the settings.
I was not a previous sync user, but it seems to be a beloved app. Although…
I am somewhat surprised at the use of personal data in the privacy policy.
I understand a guy’s gotta make a living, but with all the hype, I’m not sure I expected this.

There is now a one time payment option to remove ads
It says it’d collect “device information” and “Usage data”. What does that even mean?
Where you look, what you look at, how long you look, and where you
clicktap.So it’s just everything

Same , i was not using it previously , but i can see the privacy policy is not good ! There are good open source apps !
Probably for the ads?

Thank you for the clarification.
I owned a Sync license but never used it, I preferred Relay. I think I had five or six licenses for Reddit apps including Relay.
