- I just paid to disable the ads and tracking. It's worth it for me, a longtime Sync user.

- Might as well keep using Connect. It's a nice app.

  Yeah back on Connect myself but the previous release as it now has pag numbers which just really seems a strange thing to add and for some reason just niggles me enough to make it annoying. But that's just me

- yeah... i certainly won't be using it
  
  it's a shame, as it has some nice features that no other client has; but the privacy policy is just incredible

- Most of us who were excited for this were eager to support the dev and therefore no ads or tracking

Well worth the 20$ to remove the ads and support the dev!

- Spend your money more wisely and support Lemmy devs (and instances) which don't have ads and tracking.

  Yeah you should definitely be donating to instances first. Clients come later.

- *per year
  
  also, as a closed-source app, there's no guarantee that actually removes tracking. i'm not going to say sync does this, because that would be libel, but there's nothing stopping sync collecting everything it can collect anyways and selling them to the highest bidder, just not showing actual ads in-app

  The yearly subscription is for Ultra. The ad removal option in profile -> remove ads is permanent.
  
  LJ has always been very open with the community the whole time Sync was for reddit. You could post about it in !syncforlemmy@lemmy.world if you're worried about tracking

Should it be possible to login to the app using kbin.social credentials? Doesn't seem to work for me.

- It isn't, Kbin hasn't finished its API and therefore doesn't currently support third party apps.

- In the future, but right now Sync is only a Lemmy. In the meantime for kbin Artemis is pretty good and where public beta this week.
