I know, i would pay for it (as I did buying the reddit pro and dev versions) but I don't consider that it has a fair price and I don't support subscription models either.
I'm happy hopping between connect and eternity. Boost beta is coming next week as well, so I'm not worried at all.
Scrolling through those black spaces is for sure a bad user experience for me, but to each his own
It's good we have plenty of options. I'm going to try Boost as well because it's the app that really hooked me to reddit and in the end it brought me to lemmy. Although Sync has been so great there's no guarantee I switch. And if Boost released earlier, I probably wouldn't even tried Sync. Let's see them compete. Or collaborate. Or both.
I'd pay 5ish bucks like I did for RIF, but for now ill just donate to Liftoff or other open dev without ad injection needs. Id rather buy Sync outright for a few bucks than have yet another ad platformed app running.
