Will there be a pro version? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Will there be a pro version without in-app purchase like there was before? If I could avoid the in-app purchase I'd prefer it. There where weekly threads on Reddit when the in-app version failed to work correctly and I never had any problem with the pro version.

What was the point of having two different versions anyways instead of having one with an IAP?

I like the feeling of a clean app that doesn't have any ad integration at all.

If I remember correctly pro came out before IAP was a thing.

The in-app purchases can be buggy with amnesia hitting them once a while, making you install/reinstall just so google remembers you purchased pro. This happens when you have more than 1 google accounts on android.

Other than the already mentioned points, the old Sync Pro and Sync Dev didn't include the ad libraries in the app. Sync Dev was on beta track by default IIRC and had an internal test group like the current 100 limited users testing group Sync for Lemmy has.

Pro usually got new versions before free did
