    Used Sync since it came out, will be using it again when it’s on lemmy! I appreciate that the Connect interface is pretty similar.

    RiF user. So proud of what everyone is pulling here. Everyone united, no matter the app, for the same goal. A new “home” on the web.

      An animal with a broken charging port. Used my OnePlus 6t forever ago, the port doesn’t work right and there’s no wireless charging

        I used an ifixit Article to replace my pixel screen a while back, I don’t think chargers are too difficult and are relatively inexpensive.

    I am super excited to have a Sync client for Lemmy. In the meantime the PWA WefWef is pretty dang good.

    Former Relay user here, I’m excited for Sync! Liftoff has been interesting as well so far, and I’m trying out some others much like I tried several Reddit apps before settling on Relay. The link/comments divider bar is just such a great idea, I’m surprised none of the more popular apps use it. Hopefully someone makes something similar for Lemmy, or maybe I should make it as a fun personal project.

    Does anyone mind elaborating why it is/was called sync and what it’s/was used for? Did it sync with anything or is it just another app like Apollo and RIF?

      It originally had a “sync” feature that would download your frontpage and all the comments (and/or other chosen subreddits as well I think) for offline browsing. It was very useful when I used to commute via bus and had a very spotty internet connection.

    Looking forward to using the new sync on lemmy. Happy to pay for it again. Can’t wait. ☺

    and im here praying for Apollo for lemmy. you lucky android users :(

    nuff said mlem and memmy are still some pretty good apps for what they are currently tho (plus they are both inspired by Apollo).

        oooo thanks for showing me that, im currently using memmy as it’s the most apollo-like for me currently but that’s just straight up feels right at home for me tysm

        but i kinda want a native app tho. but oh well, most “native” apps these days are just PWAs in an electron powered trench coat so id maybe it wont be as bad as im imagining rn

    Will my Sync Pro for Reddit licence carry over to Sync Pro for Lemmy?

    If not, that’s fine, but I’ll wait it out to see which developer crrates the best front end before giving them my money.

      These apps cost pocket change considering how expensive life is right now. I can’t think of anything else where I get so much value out of so little.

      We have to be willing to pay out of pocket to support a competition if we’re not happy with the way reddit is making money.

      Even if pro subscription carries over I’m still buying it again. Sync was the best android client!
