Hey team. Thanks for a great app!
I was just wondering, and not sure if you have already mentioned it, but what is your plan for a funding model for the app in the long term?
Some kind of one-off payment maybe, or a subsrciption model?
After all the crap at Reddit with Christian being essentially priced out of making an affordable app by spez, it’l be interesting to see how you plan to go forwards financially here. I ask this knowing that there will be ongoing costs your side and I would willing to help fund that.
On a side note, I guess Memmy users are signing up through many different instances. Apart from whatever your funding model is for the app, would it be possible to also add a payment option for those who want to donate to whichever instance they use? IMO that’d be a pretty useful extra feature.
Would love to know what y’all think.
Totally agree.
Just wanted to point out that app development has different costs, sometimes none, associated with it vs hosting something like a Lemmy instance.
But p.s. logos and artwork can be bundled with the app itself. I assume, but I could be wrong, that many mobile devs have at least a handful of test devices available. Although the simulators have come a long way. But agreed test devices, especially newer ones can be expensive.
I think he meant paying designers to have logos made, not hosting, which is actually a cost for us at the moment as we are planning on doing that 😁
He really meant that and If your are not at least considering http://yannicklung.com for the gig he is a little bit disappointed 😉
Oh those are so nice. We could definitely consider him. Does he use Memmy?
Honestly, idk. But he made the current woolly icon and outdid himself with an additional apollo logo.
