Holy crap - that is a lot. Well, welcome back.

It's $20 for just removing ads permanently. But still, that's still too much imo.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It's pretty high when apps like Lumafusion are a one time purchase of $30 or $20 during sale. And then there's procreate at $13. I guess I just don't value social media apps that much. Especially when the browser of Foss alternatives have been sufficient for me that don't have any ads in the app itself to begin with. Which is a reason I've always preferred separate apps like reddit is fun platinum over IAP approaches to removing ads from apps.

Yep it is. Also I have a distrust for any kind of selling point involving the words 'permanent' or 'lifetime'.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It isn't a selling point. It was launched without a one time purchase option and was added when so many people immediately asked for a lifetime purchase instead.

That's.......literally what a selling point is.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

No. It just straight up isn't. A selling point is something you use as advertising to sell something.
