Please note this is just a beta and there are going to be bugs, but it works and it works nicely. Have fun.

    Hey everyone. Happy to finally get this out, it’s been one busy month.

    I’m looking to add a lifetime option for ultra & option to just remove ads. Keep in mind this is the first release, lots more to follow.

    Cheers!

    Lj

    My excitement is tempered by two things, the ultra cost being a subscription (I get the “why” I just hate more subscriptions) and also the pretty crappy targeted adverts “consent” whereby you have to scroll through page after page of third party vendors to turn off the “legitimate” interest which is, let’s be honest their way around consent by just ignoring what you want. That’s put me right off in all honesty sorry.

      Man, when the Pro lifetime comes out I’m there but at this point I’m not going to engage at all with either being tracked by advertisers or being forced to go through all that. There are other open source apps that don’t do any of that which may not be quite as good but the difference is worth it. Lemmy doesn’t have any ads. Why should I subject myself to ads or being tracked to use what is already free?

    Oh and please note that bugs should be reported in #sync-support-and-bugs in the discord: https://discord.gg/qYWxqva or the github.

    LJ has been working very hard - this is beta 24 from no betas a week ago.

    And again, it is a beta - some features like Ad-free IAP and submissions are not there, but they will be in there eventually.

    I’ve never spent $100 on a program before, but I’ve got a lifetime ultra membership now. Excited to see this app for lemmy!

      Also, lemmygrad.ml (deranged Putin employees and simps seem to gather there and troll news). Fantastic, added to blocked instances (assuming the function works yet).
