Mine is originally using Baconreader while in the dorm community bathroom doing a deuce and seeing a mention of Sync. Installed and instantly became a user. Later on I had a problem with the app because I was running beta Android. Reached out to the dev and after a few fix attempts an update was posted that fixed the issue. To get that kind of support is rare and is why I have continued to stand by Sync all these years.
I hopped apps frequently starting with Relay, then Baconreader, RIF, Narwhal, Boost, Slide, and finally Sync.
I used Boost for a fairly long time but I wanted a new experience and I downloaded Slide. Disliked the app almost immediately and reverted back to Boost. After some time, I installed Sync as it was the only app I hadn’t used for reddit.
Instantly fell in love with it. I was treated to the new design and I loved it. Stayed with Sync until Spez decided to fuck us all. And now, we’re here.
