  • It’s a bit of a catch-22 because while Lemmy and the Sync for Lemmy userbase is small the dev needs to ask for more to keep the lights on.

    If there was a larger pool of users who might potentially subscribe then the dev wouldn’t have to charge as much.

    But from a user perspective it might seem like a smaller/newer platform like Lemmy doesn’t justify a higher cost.

    For me personally I am happy to pay it because I used and loved Sync for years on Reddit and having had the experience with creating a Reddit app the dev has been able to provide a more complete/polished interface for Lemmy than possibly any other app available right now.





  • What’s to stop the people ddosing them to turn their sights on smaller instances?

    I don’t think they are doing it out of some deep-seated hate for Lenny.

    I imagine they are script kiddies looking for attention and bringing down your instance with one or two users probably isn’t on their radar or worth their time. I seriously doubt little “single-user” or even slightly larger instances will ever be targeted
