No. !fucksubscriptions@lemmy.world !
I would gladly pay once though.
Yep. As stupid as is sounds, I would pay even higher for a one off purchase.
Sounds entirely reasonable to me
You can pay once to remove ads. There's a subscription called ultra that adds some features like translations but it isn't necessary.
Where is the option to pay once? I can't find it.
In Beta 25, in the account switcher in the top left is a "Remove Ads" button. It's $19.99 one time. No word yet on the price for a lifetime Ultra subscription.
For me it's when you click your account icon at the top left. Then it's right above the Ultra subscription
22€ apparently
Yea but it's ads only, it's the "remove ads" option. It would be a lot nicer if it was ultra for a one-time fee
Lifetime Ultra is also now available albeit significantly more expensive.
Understandable. Dev says it's coming, not sure what the pricing will be.
It's here already. I subbed for a year already, so I can't see the price to just remove ads.
Welp, there it is, second reasonable response in this thread
The why not just sub for the yearly plan, then immediately cancel - same thing as a one time payment, you get to support the dev, and you don't have a subscription to worry about
Because then the ads come back after a year. I want no ads for life for a one time fee. Sync for reddit offered that, why not here?
There's an option to pay once to remove ads forever.
Dev is adding that. =)
Because one year < forever.
Okay then how much are you willing to spend? Say around 35 bucks? Developers need to eat too. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Developers make more money than I do, and I need to worry about my own food first lol. I'd pay $35 one time, but I also remember a time not that long ago where $10 one-time could buy you basically anything on the app store lol.
I like the app, but I hate recurring fees more. Jerboa is free. It might not be perfect, but it works, is ad-free, is on F-Droid, and is infinitely more affordable than $17/yr.
Fair point, though I think Voyager is better than Jerboa.
A developer of this caliber can easily get 90K CAD at his day job, and even more in the US.
