If you don't like ads and don't want to pay to remove ads on a Lemmy app, use Voyager, Jerboa, or any of the other many FOSS, ad free, Lemmy apps.

I don't understand why people are using apps with ads. What is the reason? Is connect selling my data and boost isn't? Why would you pick an app that has ads when so many don't?

Because apps with ads (specifically Sync that I use) have better UX and more features than anything open-source. Sorry but that's it.

Have you tried clients that are focused on good design like Voyager or Photon?
