see my other comment, that’s probably because it’s an early beta, but the plan is definitely for the free version to display ads, and people on c/syncforlemmy are also reporting new tracking attempts (obviously because of the ads, I did post a screenshot of the privacy policy which already states this)
What kind of ads? The only ads I’ve seen are ads for the subscription and “features” that are locked behind the sub/one-time price. Otherwise this is by far the best Lemmy app out there right now.
Probably because it’s a beta right now? I haven’t tried the app as I’m satisfied with Voyager and I personally don’t like the ad model, but I shared the post since many others are excited about the app.

The hell did I buy for $12.99?
From other comments, it seems that there’s regional pricing in place. In Spain, it’s around 20 euros.
Possibly the yearly subscription to Ultra? If it was a mistake I’d contact the dev for a refund if I were you.
I clicked “remove ads” to get there, and it doesn’t show as a subscription in my play store page.
looks like you’re one of the lucky ones then! 😁
Because it’s not a subscription i guess. Sync Ultra is the subscription, ad-free sync is just a Single In-app buy to not have ads in the app.
The difference between no-ads and Ultra is some online perks related to the use of the client.
I think it’s a bit too early to monetize, but I haven’t used it yet.
…there’s ads on Lemmy?
this app displays ads in the free version
The only “ads” I see are an occasional black box that says “sponsored content”.

Most of the stuff on here is so bad I can’t tell what’s an ad and what’s a normal post
And 116€ for lifetime Ultra wtf
