Yeah, nah. That’s too pricey to remove ads for a single app.

You’re not paying to remove ads. You’re supporting the development and making it worthwhile for the developer to continue to create the app.

That it happens to remove ads is just a side benefit. You can remove ads from all apps using a VPN based ad blocker anyway (on android).

I paid €2.51 to remove ads on Sync for Reddit. I would have spent maybe a tenner but it’s over €20 for the Lemmy app. As much as I love Sync, that’s a big nope from me.

The userbase of Reddit is over 10x higher.

That’s quite the understatement. 400 million vs 60,000 monthly active users.

I picked 10 cause the price was about 10x higher.

Monthly active users aren’t counted the same. Lemmy only counts people who post or comment. Still a big difference, but 60,000 is not the entire userbase of Lemmy.
