    $29 CAD to remove ads in Sync, while Boost is $4.39 CAD.

    I’d rather pay $4.39 and donate when I can. Overall Boost will end up getting more money from me in the end. It’s hard to justify nearly $30 on a platform that may not survive, but easier to justify less than $5 with frequent donations.

      I’ve legit already “boosted the rocket” in Boost for Lemmy. My issue with Sync was the fucking audacity to ask for 30$. My google opinion rewards will slowly funnel their way into rocket fuel out of mere respect for him being humble.

        That’s what I did, I have no issue supporting devs. I had premium on Sync, Boost, and Relay for reddit, and often bounced between them. But Boost is the only option for Lemmy that’s worth supporting right now

      Lemmy is fairly shit, but I spend a lot of time here nonetheless. I’ve probably got more than 30 euro worth of value from it. But, that said I cant bring myself to pay that kind of money for an app.

      Again the other other side of that is subscription fees but we all hate them so I think the pricing is justifiable but not for me personally
