      Your fundamental premise is wrong. We do have knowledge about it because it’s supposed to be the same app it was before. But lemmy instead of reddit.

      And we’re not talking a AAA game here where it’ll cost 60 dollars and there’s no reason to prepurchase. Apps are usually cheaper than a coffee.

      As something of a prudent buyer and someone who never preorders anything, I too will be buying premium day one regardless of the state of the app. I can pretty easily defend this decision too; we’ve had a very long time to get to know the developer. He has proven time and time again that he creates a very high quality and high performance application while respecting and treating his users well. I got way more than my money’s worth out of Sync for Reddit and will gladly throw some more money at such a great developer. Not to mention we’re not talking massive amounts of money here… haha

      Oh the horror, bad American for wanting to support a developer as they launch a new product that is built on the premise of one they used and loved for years.

      Instead of supporting a Dev who’s proved themselves, we should harbor deep skepticism and try to skate by on a free product for as long as possible because that $5 is really, really, super, duper gonna break the bank if the app isn’t absolutely everything I want it to be.
