Never before have I been so excited for a beta app. Thank you Ljdawson!

I've just pushed beta 25 which adds the option to remove the ads as a one time purchase.

Hopefully they'll approve the update within the next 24 hours

Does it just remove the ads visualization or actually disables all related data collection and tracking?

[โ€“] SageMarble@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure analytics is optional even if you didn't pay a dime but feel free to correct me on that

[โ€“] Razp@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

I don't know. That's why I was asking lj

<3 can tell you did some on the backend.. smoother than reddit's client

Wow you work fast.

Loving it, keep up the good work.

That's great to hear!

[โ€“] xaxl@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Excellent, I'm looking forward to this!

But lemmy does not have ads. I'm confused

[โ€“] daFRAKKINpope@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lemmy doesn't. The app might. I don't use sync but if I'm an app developer I could make money plugging advertisements into my app. If I design the UI well enough, and make the ads unobtrusive, I might just make enough money and not piss anyone off.

Agree. That's a no from me. I'd pay if I like it, but injecting ads into the feed and I'm out. Just trying liftoff now. Seems solid.
