  1. their default model isnt based on ads like sync for lemmy

  2. 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.
