You're paying to support the dev. The ad removal is just a bonus, you could do that by other means.
The Lemmy community doesn't even compare to Reddit's. Of course it'd charge more. Well worth it though, Sync is fantastic.
I always pay to remove ads from apps I use, as opposed to using blockers, to support the devs, but this is the first time ever I see it cost this much.
Especially since Sync Pro (the ad-free version) for Reddit was like, less than 5โฌ
Honestly, if you're paying to support the dev, ads won't even needed to be added to the app.
While I do like Sync and Laurence, this is far from the truth, there are people that will think about paying just to remove the ads. Supporting the dev will be just the bonus there.
Edit:
Also valid to say that a smaller user base don't suddenly mean that you have to charge more, that thinking is, in all honesty, mind boggling to me.
