This perfectly explains the demise of BlackBerry phones too.

Connect is much like Sync. In fact, I uninstalled Sync and went back to Connect.
I am aware of the scenario. Sync for Lemmy is not just relaunching into a fresh world here. The dev shouldn’t come in with unreasonable pricing. Not when we can use very nice apps such as Connect instead for free, and ad free.
Inflation is awful. Gas as gone up 18%. Food about 20%. But $8 to $26 is a percentage increase of 225%.
I don’t find your example valid, sorry.
What provinces are you two? I wonder if that’s a factor.
It did not cost me $26 CDN. Maybe $8.
No, we’re paying to remove ads. And $26 CDN to remove ads feels really high when I paid $3.69 to remove ads in Boost and $4.49 to remove ads in Relay in 2019.
I like how you bothered to speak of supporting the dev yet mentioned how to stop ads with a VPN based blocker.

You were supposed to ignore, you rebel!
Considering here in Winnipeg, Canada, where it reaches -35C or even colder, it was pretty wild having weeks on end of +30C to even +39C temperatures, and so soon into our summer.
I never want to complain about the heat when we have snow for 7 months, but that was ridiculous.
There are 1 billion active users on Instagram and those users were invited to Threads using an existing account. Celebrities, businesses, streamers, etc. all popped up on Threads within the first few hours of public release.
I’m a big nerd and just learned about the fediverse within recent months. Everyone else I know who uses Twitter and Threads have no clue what Mastodon is.
What are you using now? I’m using Connect for Lemmy and it feels very close to Sync because of gestures. I’ll be torn when Sync comes out because I’m enjoying this so much. (And Connect is Canadian like me. Haha)
I’m loving Connect for Lemmy right now, but certainly curious to see how this turns out! Sync was my go-to app for Reddit.
I had to zoom in on my phone just to be able to read that!
You know… It’s seeing this type of stuff I’m so happy I found my wife the old fashioned way before dating apps existed.
This reminds me, I need to go see if Lemmy has a Thanks I Hate It (TIHI) community yet.
I’m enjoying the hell out of it. Could be the novelty of everything, but I’m liking it more than Reddit. And like I’ve seen many here say, I tend to respond and have conversations here more often.
Plus, Connect for Lemmy is very nice on my Android phone. I was waiting for Sync of Lemmy to arrive, but I’m not so sure I’ll switch.
I know it’s ignorant, but all I can imagine when using a bidet for the first time is shooting my corn hole with a jet of cold water, not knowing how clean it is back there, and using a towel to dry off only to find watered down shit on the towel.
