Comment on What is your favorite app for Lemmy? Include Platform

Sync on Android. I’ll go down with the ship, I guess. If ljdawson never comes back I’ll be forced to look into other options eventually, but for now it still works, despite some bugs. It just looks and feels the best to me, and I’ve yet to find another app that can exactly replicate how I have it set up.

Excellent, just the example I needed to prevent me from examining my own use of Sync. I picked it up straight off of RiF and it’s been mostly fine. Spoilers rarely work and sometimes it just straight up can’t “fetch the image,” but I can do the things I care about, like downvoting and making ad hominem attacks. 10 out of 10 for me.

  Thunder can be used for that too, you blithering imbecile.
  
  (Sync alumnus, only on Thunder because I moved to iOS. Sync is still the best 😢)

  I’m in the same boat. The ads have become terrible for me so I’m in the market for a new app anyway. I was hesitant to purchase a subscription because of the low number of releases.
  
  Glad I didn’t

I use sync occasionally, and I found it has some features literally no other app has (or I’m too dumb to find them) like easy instance switching. It’s right there on the main screen, you just click instances, pick a federated instance, and boom, now you’re seeing stuff from that instance. I wish more apps has that.

Same boat. I’m really happy with my current look and feel, and I have no reason to change at this time.

I was a Sync user on Reddit. Thunder has reproduced that feel for me here. The one place it didn’t I contributed (2-column tablet mode)

I was in the same boat as you, but I discovered Summit this week. I feel like it fixes a couple of annoyances from Sync.

I used it until recently thinking the same, but it just became too broken for me. I’m on thunder now and I got it to work exactly the way I used sync and everything seems to actually be working.
