i think sync as a reddit client used to have more features than it is now but i am still not sure, at least the reddit official app has an extra feature like the mute comment notification feature, etc… also i dont think people are getting their money worth off the app (and the app pricing isn’t supposed to reflect its worth either) : dev living in america where high rent and taxes are rampant: why should that trickle to me as a user, especially when i am not earning an american wage…if 1000 ad views pay for 1$, then paying 10$ as a yearly fee is more of a reasonable way to monetize ur app while sparing ur user the ad abuse. European devs could provide more affordable apps for Lemmy, like the case of Boost. Also i am not aginst proprietary apps at all. In fact, proprietary apps are way better than Lemmy foss apps
