Is there something about the way lemmy works that is causing Sync to chew up so much data? I never saw this kind of usage on Reddit.

      I think it might just be a bug or weird optimization issues.

      And I’m pretty sure OP has that much data use because they’re on lemmynsfw. Not only are they consuming a lot of media content, lemmynsfw admins have been turning off caching for images so he’s fetching the linked media every time. I only have 1.06GB used since August 2

        If the cache contains the same image as the link, then how does that factor into the equation? Caches don’t magically save bandwidth.

      I paid the ~$3 for a month of pro, so no ads, and it still eats up my battery. I’ll have to stop using it until it’s resolved.

        Glad it’s not just me. I like the app but I like my phone staying alive too thru a work day.
