My only criticism is the subscription fee instead of a one off charge for the full set of features. I would like a lot of them but I don't need cloud sync or another ongoing cost to worry about.
I've just pushed beta 25 which adds the option to remove the ads as a one time purchase.
Hopefully they'll approve the update within the next 24 hours
<3 can tell you did some on the backend.. smoother than reddit's client
Wow you work fast.
That's great to hear!
Loving it, keep up the good work.
Excellent, I'm looking forward to this!
It's like having Reddit back, this is amazing. 🙏
For as long as I can remember Reddit and Sync have been one and the same. I never used Reddit website or app, only ever used Sync to browse Reddit hosted content. I used it a lot. I've missed it a lot.
Between the Lemmy platform and Sync client, to all intents and purposes what Reddit was has been fully restored/migrated.
I know it's early days, but I did not expect to see anything like this so soon and it gives me hope that Lemmy can grow and thrive into the network of people that always made Reddit what it was. Everything that's needed is there - early, a little rough around the edges, but there. And being improved constantly.
Hallelujah!
It feels so surreal to be in a newly-budding set of communities with the same UI I fell in love with years ago.
Thank you, LJ!
So happy to have the sync icon back in its spot on my homescreen! Thanks LJ!!
I feel this so much. First had jerboa there and then liftoff. No shade to either of those but having sync back is just so great.
I'd tried voyager, then connect, and finally had settled on Liftoff. All are great apps especially for how quickly they were published but Sync just feels so much better to me after having used it for years for Reddit. Feels so good to be back!!
Literally the first thread I reply to on the app.
Feels so good to be back!
Agreed. It's as if I just got back from a long trip. Feels like home.
Hell yea!
We are so fucking back
I wonder why you have a 🍑 app recommendation... 😛
I don't know honestly, didn't even pay attention to that when I took that screenshot lol
The GDPR consent settings is ludicrous. It reads like fucking spyware and I cannot fathom why, someone please explain!
The vendor settings alone is like 300 different vendors all with their own preselected consent button, ffs!
You are just being made aware of how many vendors your data will be shared with by default.
Eh that's beta apps for you, pretty sure Ljdawson will improve it at some point.
Just in time. Reddit killed RIF all the way just now
Yeah I just saw that. RIP
I'm making a stand and abandoning reddit like digg
I was on the verge of abandoning reddit before when I could only use RIF to browse logged out, but now that it's gone for good...goodbye, reddit. I wonder if it'll affect things like reddit traffic at all. Time will tell, I suppose.
My first 🥇 comment from Sync for Lemmy
Just the thing I've been waiting for. We are so back.
THE WORLD IS HEALING
Never used sync before. Must be a reason people are so excited
Subscribed for Ultra immediately. 👍😎
Oh... You've unleashed The Flood...
It's seem that posting is still not available yet, how did you post this? or am I missing something?
Posting isn't, but commenting is!
-from Sync
Probably posted from another app. For example, I posted my Sync bug report using Connect.
Gogogoooooo!
This is my first experience using sync, I been a boost user and never used sync for reddit. This is a very promising beta
I just downloaded it and I'm loving it so far. Definitely the best Lemmy client for Android.
Let's keep him caffeinated!
I'll wait until Ljdawson sets up regional pricing, not really used to paying American prices for everything online personally.
Finally :D
Happy to pay the monthly fee to support this
I remember when I had an android phone that Sync was by far my favorite app, glad to see the transition to Lemmy. Fucking awesome.
Installed and subscribed!
This is my first time using Sync. I bounced around different reddit apps back before the shit hit the fan but never tried Sync. I have to say. Im impressed. It's so much more stable than Jerboa.
oooh sweeeeet momma
Impressive, very nice.
"Finally...inner peace."
Commenting from Sync, with paid ultra as basically my 3rd click in the app before all else.
It still doesn't show up for me :/
Update: I switched accounts and the install button showed up
Having never used Sync for Reddit (RIF user, rip), this is a nice upgrade over Liftoff. Great job to the devs
It's beautiful!
Also. Charge your phone.
I charged it after posting this lol
Awesome.. Only need a replay for Lemmy now.🙂
That’s only for Android though, right?
Yeah
That’s only for Android though, right?
Yes, currently Sync is exclusive to Android.
Charge your phone!
I charged it after posting this lol
Nice
Never used Sync before, but I have a couple questions-
Can I swipe on post view to go to the next/prev post?
Does it track "read" posts and support hiding those posts?
It's so hard to find an app with both of these 😭
And more.
I don't necessarily want more, I want those two things ;p
Anyway, it is a nice app but I can't seem to swipe from the post I'm viewing to the next one, so maybe I'll keep looking.
Nope for both afaik.
Just to confirm, this will not be available on iOS, correct?
It’s android only. But if you’re in iOS, wefwef is awesome
I think it's now called Voyager
Not yet also Sync is still beta.
I have been using Memmy on iOS, which has been awesome so far.
We're back, baby! Immediately resubscribed to Ultra.
I already have the Sync Ultra thing. Pretty damn nice.
I love it
Installed. Purchased Ultra. Now I can finally start living on lemmy
Yeah, about time!
Might want to charge your phone or you won't be able to use it. 🤨 🙃
Lol I charged it after posting this
Fuck yeah!!!
User and community filters aren't working.
I changed my base instance to lemmynsfw.com, entered some community and user filters, but their posts aren't being filtered.
