Just Went Live!
A beautiful Lemmy app for browsing Lemmy on the go!
Installed already. Posting isn't available yet.
Finally feels like Reddit! Can't wait to get pro! Just not subscription please...
Agreed. I would love an option for a one time purchase. I can't do any more subscriptions, it's already hard to keep track of the few that I do have.
I feel ya. I sprung for ultra since I want to support the developer. Maybe a pro one time payment is coming in the future.
I'm hoping there is a one time and subscription option. I'm comfortable with my finances now to afford a subscription and I would like to help the devs continue to develop and improve the app. Sync for Lemmy will probably have a smaller userbase so they might need the extra bucks.
the app feels really premium than any lemmy app I tried but the ads are a deal breaker for me. I would definitely consider purchasing it to support the developer but I can't pay monthly just to browse lemmy. Sticking with voyager for now
I've been waiting for sync to be ready on lemmy and installed it as soon as it was. I got an ad preferences thingy and thought "fuck it, the guy got sync of the ground for lemmy in just a few weeks" worth £15.99 for the annual sub to ultra IMHO. Been using sync pro on reddit for years of the back of a tiny one of purchase. I figure for the hours I used it, he deserves more than I paid and I'm more than grateful that sync is back.
I am using it right now. Moments ago I was reading a post on a DnD community and had to do a double take, it felt like I was on Reddit, but it was just a bout of nostalgia after years of using Sync for Reddit.
The familiarity, the gorgeous material UI, but now with 100% less spez!!
Thank you for bringing Sync to Lemmy Ljdawson!!
It really is uncanny. I've gone back to the official app a handful of times but the experience is so much worse.
This is a great experience for Lemmy and I hope this will encourage more people to start using the platform.
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!
And it's such a good feeling to know that what happened to Reddit can never happen again!
Commenting works though!
Good stuff!
Oh god it feels good to be back.
So much better than jerboa
Only a month and a half using other apps for lemmy has made me forget how great sync is.
I don‘t know what sync for lemmy is. And at this point, I‘m afraid to ask!
Sync for reddit was a great 3rd party app for browsing reddit. Since 3rd party apps were ousted from reddit the dev repurposed his app for Lemmy. I've been using it today and so far it is fantastic. There are some ads, but at the moment it's the best Lemmy app on the market as far as UI goes imho.
So stoked haha Lemmy has officially embedded itself in my daily browsing
Just got it myself. Replying from Sync!
First comment from SFL - Heeell Yeah mawfuggaz 🤘
Loving it so far! Used Sync for reddit for many years. I will definitely be buying the pro version! LONG LIVE SYNC!
LONG LIVE THE NEW FLESH! LONG LIVE SYNC!
This is definitely my favorite Lemmy client so far!
Posting from sync as well! Works like a charm so far. Only the empty sponsored content block from time to time seems off :D
Awesome stuff!
So happy to be back to this app
And i restored the settings from a backup i made from the reddit client. 😅
Oh man, did that work? I was going to do that, but I thought, nah, they're unlikely to be compatible! Amazing.
Yeah it worked for me i restored the backup file and my app was automatically setup just like the reddit one. What i did was to logout my reddit account before backing up.
I did it and my app keeps crashing.
I'm definitely likely to buy permeant and free, or sync ultra lifetime... If it becomes my favorite app.
I was a long (long long) time Bacon Reader user, so I'm looking for something with a similar experience. So far Sync seems awsome!
Can someone check and let me know if it supports marking read on scroll like Sync for Reddit did and Voyager does?
It does.
Cleaannn!
Finally feels like I'm home! Also are there any plans to add or is there a way to view downvote counts?
Pretty cool! Sending this from Sync
I'd use it, but it doesn't have kbin support
I've tried various different Lemmy apps, and this app is exactly what I was looking for!
Just checked I can only pre-register
Scratch that, commenting from it now
You might be on a wait list because of the amount of traffic using the app today. I got in because I signed up 12 hours after they announced Sync on the Play Store.
Yeah was like 5mins after I posted that comment it became Available for me.
Is there not a way to quickly update "show read" account option from the app?
And now I can completely leave reddit!
Looks good
Very exciting.
Couldn't log into .world, but could at lemm.ee. Having a nice browse as we speak!
The .world issue is likely Lemmy related as lemmy.world had lots of issues today.
Can wait to use it but it doesn't support kbin.social yet.
It's pretty much impossible for an app to support kbin right now. We're waiting on the API to be completed and released, but it's in the works!
It's crashing for me after I open the app a second time :(
Test post...
Most people don't post. I'm glad the basics are working butter smooth
Is it feature complete already? That was quick.
No its beta 26 and lots of features are not there yet, but coming soon. Like being able to copy subscriptions between instance accounts :)
Not quite, there are a lot of features that do not currently work/are not implemented (like submitting posts, for example). It's a basic features only launch, but it still maintains the overall look and feel and smoothness of the Reddit app. I already feel comfortable shelving Jerboa.
