Ask Peter Sripol lmao

The fediverse is the perfect example of how social media should be implemented following Sir Tim Berners-Lee’s vision when creating the WWW. That’s why this feels like pre-2010 internet!

Nike actually makes a running shoe which used a carbon reinforced sole IIRC which is supposed to make you use a bit less energy when running. So I’ll put in my vote for no, you won’t be faster barefoot.

You mean you don’t rent your toothbrushes?!

It doesn’t justify it IMO, but the features are not the point. It’s about supporting the development for a (currently) smaller userbase.

Anyway, here’s a screenshot

It’s not $99 for the app though, it’s $20 for sync ad-free, which is reasonable for a crazy polished app like this one. The $99 gets you a tiny bit more functionality they provide extra based around a subscription model because recurring revenue makes sure you always have the funds to further your project. I don’t necessarily agree with this sentiment, but I also don’t need any of those extra features.

Also, sync is just the beginning. Many more apps will follow. If they still think that price is reasonable, then so be it. But $20 is very fair IMO.
