I literally just explained why the price per person needs to be higher now. It is not about server costs. It is about the cost of app development and maintenance.
Of course a single user is irrelevant, but in principle and if it would evolve into a larger trend: yes.
At least if the dev wants to keep paying his bills. That is how business works. And with lower user counts at some point the required price per user would be too high to be competitive. Then the dev would have to abandon the project, since it would not be profitable anymore. He is a full-time developer after all.
Heyo sync pricing update, now the price is 50% off after dev saw the backlash, so is he going bankrupt or were you talking out of your ass the whole time?
AFAIK he just implemented regional pricing.
The price is the same in Euro.
My point was also never that it has to be one specific price, but to raise awareness to the fact that the old prices of Sync for Reddit are not actually sustainable anymore for Lemmy.
Ad removal has no server costs and now it costs 2.5x as much as it did 1 month ago

Uh huh so according to your logic now that I wont buy it like I planned to, you and the others will have to pay even more? Good luck
