When you walking down the steps and the LiveLeak logo appears

Not sure OP is the same person from the mastodon post?

This is just a link to the post on Mastodon.social, to appear here, OP would’ve had to tag the community on the same mastodon post.

Fellas, is it gay to drive a car? I mean, you’re basically riding four tiny dicks every time you jump into a car.

Good ol’ Kazaa

I hear you, I also find it weird to put ads for a free experience when the original service is also free and ad-free.

I prefer apps that, for example, offer limited usage for free and full features under payment. I know what others are saying about this not being a side project. For example, Ivory for Mastodon (iOS) is a freemium app with a subscription model for you to be able to full use the app, also not a “side project” but their model works (they previously developed Tweetbot until all the mess at Xitter started to happen last year).

I will support any indie developer if the product is worth it and the price is right. I’m currently paying Ivory for Mastodon (iOS) and the experience is top notch. The fact that paid apps for the fediverse are popping up is actually a great sign of interest and critical mass of active users.

On a side note, what are you guys using on iOS? There’s a LOT of options currently, but the four that I’ve been enjoying the most are Memmy, Bean, Lemmios and Avelon. I’m sure in a couple of months we’ll see amazing progress and clearer differentiation from each other.
