It’s not just lemmy that’s benefiting from Elon Musk.

    I find it interesting how many people are looking for the overall lemmy experience. The first thing I did was find the community niche that interested me and the relevant instance, then when I’ve exhausted that instance I switch to the Everything tab and all find the generic content.

    Edit: I accidentally wrote fine the community niece…

      I’m one of them. I use Sync so the whole caboodle feels like just one site to me, whether it’s the Everything feed or my subscribed.

      (I am not a techy person)

        I also use sync, although I bought the lifetime ad-free version for Reddit years ago for like $5 and now it’s $100 which I can’t afford here which is a shame. Still, it’s my favourite app and I’m very familiar with it.

            It’s the reddit pricing swapped over exactly, I’m not outright against an independent app creator having a paid option, because it’s a very high quality app that deserves support, but I do feel it’s soo steep. There are also subscription options but I never take those, and the ads are reasonably unobtrusive.

              So the developer has no underlying API cost to justify it and is pocketing it all? Obviously they can charge what they want and people can spend their money however they like, but this seems like an absolute con!

                The developer is definitely pocketing it all, however they were very active on Reddit in maintaining and improving the app with the most quality of life options I’ve seen across any app. Honestly if the paid option was $10, I’d go for it, since I get hundreds of hours of use out of it. Also back in the reddit days, you could find the paid version for free online pretty easily.
