Following recommendations from the comments I implemented material you with dynamic colors and pushed content to the beginning and I really liked the result

The idea is to keep accounts synced using an background service btw

I’ll keep improving it and I aim to release a build for those who want to test, it’s FOSS

    Great idea, I plan to give it a try soon! One suggestion though is you need to figure out a better name since Sync for Lemmy is a well known app already and this will just confuse people.

    Nice work!

    Unfortunately it seems a lot of users need apps like this now, since the Lemmy network is heavily fragmented already.

    That’s both a plus and a minus of the technology.

    Would be nice with some visual map that shows which instance talks to which other instance, blocked communities, and so on.

    For example, beehaw doesn’t federate with Lemmy.world. How will the users know this if they are new?

        I just joined Lemmy, is there somewhere I can read how it all works? Seems exciting, I’ve been saying we need a decentralized social media for more than a decade now.

        Saw that. Perhaps every community should instead defederate from lemmy.world. More server outages AGAIN today. Maybe they deserve to be attacked at this point.

      Great idea but for now I’ll just log to the user what couldn’t be synced, implementing something like this would be hard for now, maybe a future improvement

    Why would I want to sync accounts across instances? Isn’t my content automatically federated?

      The ideia isn’t to sync the posts and comments, it’s to sync subscribed communities, banned users/communities and saved content

      Things that aren’t federated

        Finally a way to keep my list of stupid celeb simping communities from clogging my feed. No idea why I get posts from lemmynsfw anyways.

      It’s useful if an instance goes down (temporarily or not)

        Actually I’m not a native speaker and really like when people correct my mistakes, but thanks for defending me

        Its horrifically funny that youve just insinuated that the commentor lacks context on app development while their account is on a clearly dev oriented instance. Also tf is your problem with the self righteous comment, OP can likely speak for themselves.
