      Sync is free if you don’t pay 20$ to remove the ads. The payment is more of a way to support the dev really, since you can get rid of ads by other means.

      I would much rather pay some money for a great app though than use something non-functional because it’s free.

      No, there’s a free version. With about 1/100, the ads the official Reddit app has.

      I wouldn’t demand a haircut for free, or commission a painting for free, or ask someone to a fancy restaurant, then demand we go Dutch.

      Sync has a developer who I chose to compensate for their work. I would’ve done the same for connect. I would like people to get compensated for the work they do. It’s great to get something for free, but I am not entitled to their free labor.

      But somethings are worth paying for.

          No you’re just super stuck on this really bad analogy.

          Sync is a prostitute in the same way a hair dresser is. Your mom can slap a bowl on your head and cut your hair for free.
