Now there’s a giant, bright, tiktok ad at the top of every post yet this client still can’t support redgifs after months. I jumped on the sync hype train, where should I get off?

      Have to agree a little bit with op though, LJ. I bought Reddit Sync Pro about 4 times over the decade+ that I used it because I was happy to pay a fiver to get rid of the ads and support your work

      €17 is having a giraffe mate tbh

    Oh god, I was actually hoping that blank space was not an ad :/

      Better at the bottom of the screen? That way it wouldn’t need to reserve the space.

        I mean, that would be better, but I think it would be better to have it only in the main feed as it used to :)

        How about shoving them into the Options screen instead?

    mods deleting recommendations for other apps as spam. Those apps don’t spam you with ads. unlike sync.

        I just dropped in from /all so didn’t read the side bar. But doesn’t make it not true.

    Have you checked the two pinned posts of the community?

      I don’t see pinned posts in my UI. Where are they?

        The two topmost posts of this community address the update situation.

          I wonder if it is because I clicked on them sometime before and now they’re hidden in Sync. I couldn’t find a quick way to see hidden posts.

          Anyway, I did restore purchases and now ads are gone

            Do you have it set to show posts over the last “x” hours? That’ll hide the pinned posts if they’re not in that timeframe

    I could would suggest you take a voyage around the App Store for Lemmy apps. I won’t name any. But there are many good ones.

      Nice reference you got there would be a shame if someone over explained and ruined it.

    Jerboa works pretty well for me, with no ads at all!

    Mlem is free and improving, and I have yet to see an ad injected into the client

    Connect doesn’t have ads… I don’t understand why people opt for apps with ads. Are they much better? Connect gives me everything I’m looking for
