You are looking for mathematical logic where there isn't one.
Yeah the are probably on it.
You can't compare Reddit and Lemmy. They are different with a different model. Lemmy rely on donation. Reddit has ads and investors.
The dev of Sync did money with Reddit but Reddit had a source of revenue.
Lemmy relying on donation doesn't have this source of revenue. This is why splitting the revenue of Sync between Lemmy's devs, instances and Sync's dev is fair.
If someone donate to the Lemmy's devs and/or instances, this person allows the sync's dev to make money on this donation. This isn't fair.
The sync model with Lemmy is predatory at best and parasitic at least.
But, the dev doesn't comply with gdpr. It's opt-out by default what is not the case.
So to access the payment, you have to share private and personal datas. This isn't fine at all. He should offer the option to buy without being tracked.
Samsung still does it. It's called the Xcover lineup.
Govs should never ask. They must implement the regulation. The corporations are so greedy, they will follow for the money.
I'm not assuming. My point is that the dev has to share the revenues with the instances. Without instances, the app is useless. It's not the case so users should give the same.
The other point is that a paid third party client adds a layer what makes the instances less visible. This lack of visibility can lower the donation. Also, you will end with one or two people thinking they pay for the app and so for the instances.
A reminder is always good.
It was 1$ at the beginning for the pro version.
Sync looks like the apple, Tesla/musk of some.
