Maybe a one time payment like for original sync, imagine supporting subscription services for a FOSS app π€‘π€‘π€‘
Lemmy is funded by Patreon/Liberapay.... Which are essentially subscriptions
their default model isnt based on ads like sync for lemmy
a third party client isnt as much work as the fediverse as u see it took him a month
3)ads used to be a one time payment for his old app, so the money was enough for him back then and now hes even richer so why do you excuse his greediness?
It took him a month because he adapted a code base he had been working on for a decade.
It's not greediness to want to be able to pay your bills. This is his job. Also a single payment option has already been developed it's just not made in live yet.
He was already paying his bills with the one time payment and now hes even richer, this is the definition of greediness. Also his future plans are irrelevant here I am judging his current actions and the OP comment defending them.
PS, weird how the no ads feature takes longer to develop than the recurring payment with 10 features, INCLUDING the no ads one!
Sync for reddit also had a subscription model
Which didnt have the no ads offer, which is what my one time payment is referring to.
Perhaps when you create your own app you can determine your own cost model.
"Dont judge politicians unless youre one of them" nice mindset bro
politicians are meant to be judged devs are meant to be criticized just for improvement, you can just use another app
Sure? I only criticized ill stick to liftoff since theres only subscription option
he has literally said he will add an one time payment
current comments defend his current actions so no opinion on that until it happens.
PS: weird how the no ads option takes more time to develop than the subscription option with 10x features, INCLUDING the no ads one !
it is still in beta, you can't charge someone 30 euros for something that might fail or stop
30$? That's only 6x the original ad-free sync price, I take all my greediness comments back !
If you'd like to have a real conversation, I'm willing. If you want to pretend to argue things no one claimed, you're on your own.
I tried an analogy since you didnt see the fallacy of your point, that failed too I guess, telling me dont judge the dev unless youve been in their shoes would mean u cant judge politicians either, I can and should have opinion on stuff regardless
Again, point me to where I said don't judge. I didn't. Judge away.
If you look at my post again, you'll find that I tried to suggest that when you make your own app (and you should), you should decide on your cost model which sounds like it'll be free. I eagerly await your release!
Not replying to my points and telling me I wait for your app is called an ad hominem, is this how you reply to people in real life?
except sync isn't FOSS, lemmy the fediverse link aggregator is π€‘π€‘π€‘
I'm obviously referring to lemmy when I say foss app, you think you look smart being a contrarian?
except lemmy isn't an app, it's a platform. sync is a lemmy app.
taken from the website:
"Lemmy is a selfhosted social link aggregation and discussion platform."
so if anything it's you who is the contrarian, lol. but I digress Β―\_(γ)_/Β―
Ignoring my argument twice in favour of nitpicking words, youre not a contrarian keep going
made a whole meme to defend nitpicking words, 3 replies so far nitpicking my words and ignoring my original argument like a true contrarian, keep going
now that's the good old Reddit I used to know
