So I tried sync to see what all the rage was. Doesn’t seem that different really from connect imo. I’m posting this with connect since sync can’t seem to do basic functions like post to communities (really?!!) but they made sure to implement big blocks where “sponsored content” will soon be shown. I figured I’d pay a couple bucks because I really can’t stand ads, but then saw its $20! I’m now assuming most of you commie bastards (said lovingly) are secretly trust fund brats? How can this be a viable price point for ad removal? Is sync really making that much from ads that this iis the conversion point? For the die hard fans, what are you getting from sync that you are not from connect? I’m not seeing the allure.
Yes! The hype is from loyal users, like me. Ex-Redditors that know what’s to come.
I used Sync back when it was literally to sync content for offline use (I commuted underground and wanted to browse Reddit.) It was a joy to see its development over the years and I look forward to being part of the developer’s journey yet again, this time with 10+ years of experience to work with!
People that weren’t part of that original journey won’t have the same benefit of experience.
