Sync is good but Boost is better

Boost is essentially the Apollo equivalent of Android. A simple but functional UI. Customisable UI but not ambitious. Well thought out.

We’re all anxious to get back on Boost and launch the rocket 🚀 so I hope you take it as support and not pressure. Having a blast with Voyager for now, but Boost was always where it was at for me. Can’t wait to give it a shot when you’re ready to release it!

Do you know what kind of pricing model you’ll use? Will Boost for Lemmy be a separate purchase for removing ads, or do you intend to have a restore purchases button?

Super appreciative to have Sync for Lemmy to use in the meantime, but it’s only increased my appetite for the real deal - Boost for life!

Thanks. I donated a few bux earlier in the year, before Reddit started the API thing. When Boost for Lemmy becomes a reality I’m gonna donate a few more bux to show appreciation.

IIRC Boost was ad free without paying for it, which is what matters to my broke but ad hating ass.

That’s what I love about boost. You barely notice the ads. But I bought it anyway out of respect for the dev.

Yeah, I forgot it had ads sometimes because for the most part, they weren’t invasive at all.

Sometimes a bottom bar ad appeared which was annoying but it didn’t appear until near the end for me for some reason.

It had a bottom banner. Dunno if you could turn it off for free?

No, you couldn’t. However, it was offered for cheap in discounts.

Looking forward to returning to Boost. I’ve been experimenting with Sync, but the high prices (even though I don’t intend to use the features that are locked behind them) and the fanboys are pushing me away.

I deleted sync, even though I was using sync before. For now, Summit is better for me. Free and fluid. No ads. In fact, $20 is not a lot of money if you live in a developed country. Unfortunately, it’s a lot of money for my country.

LJ added region specific pricing a day or so ago, check for app updates, or add your country to the list: https://lemmy.world/comment/2020246
