If you use lemmy heavily, I would say sync and boost are worth it. They are also a one off payment with plenty of options to go through.
I personally used boost on Reddit and but have been using voyager on lemmy. Voyager has been working great and the developer is very active.
This is my biggest problem with Sync. The dev regularly disappears for extended periods of time. It's one of the reasons I have avoided dropping the money to get rid of the ads and pick up the lifetime ultra. If they were more communicative about what's going on in the dev cycle, I think more people would be okay with it, but disappearing for months makes people frustrated and they come off rather entitled, which I'm certain frustrates the dev, and makes them not want to work on Sync, continuing the cycle.
For me it's that I don't get ads in the first place. I always wondered what was up for that but the ads I'm supposed to get? Never showed up anywhere in Sync.
It's weird and makes me think the app is poorly maintained
Im guessing that you are probably using a network level adblock (pihole) which does turn them off.
I actually don't. Which is the interesting part to me.
Adguard's pseudo VPN will achieve a similar effect
