    Ehh ill give it a look. I generally avoid apps that are just a website.

      Sync UI/UX are carried over from years of refinement as a Reddit client with full native controls. It now mostly just has a different API and service layer wired in for Lemmy. Definitely not a simple web view app.

        What a terrible way of looking at it. UX matters a lot when you’re using a platform, and some people are willing to tolerate the occasional ad if they get a UX they like and are familiar with.

        Gross, I was reading through this thread thinking about checking Sync out, but the idea of wilfully adding ads is so disgusting to me. The browser works well for me anyway, I don’t think I’ll end up getting an app unless it does something outstanding.

        I’m all for people liking a certain UI/UX and supporting the dev but seriously, putting ads on fucking Lemmy? This is just so wrong

        What’s the point on not using reddit’s mobile app then? I was using a 3PA because I couldn’t stand the ads and now comes someone to put ads on an app for Lemmy jfc

              That’s not hypocrisy. They’re not advocating one thing and doing another.

              If you don’t like the ads don’t use the app.
