Hi everyone, first comment on here. Going to try to get an MVP out within the next 3-6 weeks.
I’ll be posting updates on discord:
Cheers, Ljdawson

Most Valuable Program?

MVP! MVP! MVP!
Minimum Viable Product, if anyone wants to know the answer.
Thought I agree on most valuable
This is going to be a game changer. I’ve been using Sync Pro since 2015 and can’t see myself using anything else for mobile browsing. Thanks for the awesome app!
This is awesome! Thank you!

That is great news! I look forward to trying it when it is ready. I really enjoyed using Sync and was so sad that reddit ruined their ecosystem.
This is exciting.
I’m literally getting emotional. For me, Sync was reddit. Been using it for over 11 years. Can’t wait to be an early adopter and never let go again.
If you need beta testers familiar with the original Sync or anything, happy to help!
I’m hyped! I hope you’re excited too!
Excellent! Sync was my first and only Reddit app. I think I had multiple lifetime subscription s to Sync Pro. Very glad you are continuing with Lemmy! I’ve been done with Reddit and haven’t been back since the day I saw that you were shutting Sync down.
That’s fantastic news!
This is great news.
Please charge a lot
Take my money!
Best news I’ve heard all day!

DAwesonme@[email protected] I’d love to collaborate on QA for Sync for Lemmy! Let me know if I can be of assistance!
This is super exciting to hear! Sync was my favorite reddit app.
Just wanna add my voice to the chorus of people cheering you on. Sync was my app of choice and I’d definitely happily pay for a lemmy version
<3
Thankyou, this is excellent news. Syncfor Reddit was one of the slickest apps I’ve ever had the pleasure of using. So there’s no one else I’d rather have working on a Lemmy app!
You were unequivocally the best reddit app, just wanna say
You’ve made my day! I’ve been a Sync for Reddit user for over a decade, my Google play review is from 2014!!!
As a thank you and goodbye I recently bought lifetime ultra, I hope that’s helping in the development of Sync for Lemmy! 😁
As a Pro user since 2013, I can’t thank you enough for bringing the awesome experience also to Lemmy!
I was a Sync for Reddit user for years. I will absolutely follow you into this.
Wow that’s awesome news. Thank you!
Awesome! You should probably also make a SyncForLemmy community too.
EDIT: Nevermind, there is one! https://lemmy.world/c/syncforlemmy
Wanna go full fediverse and bridge the discord to a Matrix room? Might as well get 100% free from corporate overlords.
Great news, thanks!
You’re the real mpv here… What a king.
Great news, I was really hoping this would happen. Thank you!

We’ve been using it for sync development for the last few years.
When there’s enough to release of course they’ll be changelog and posts etc too.
Discord is fine, if that’s how he wants to disseminate the information. But maybe use a community on Lemmy, for the Lemmy app
The whole fediverse needs some serious UX work.
Yeah using it rn is pretty ass compared to old reddit and 3rd party apps. Good things coming tho.
Well yeah, but that’s the difference between volunteering and being on a big salary. Hopefully the influx of new users will lead to more code input though, and more donations.
The end of Sync is the reason why I will leave Reddit at the end of the month. So nice to see that we eventually might get a new app for Lemmy!
If only sync for reddit would auto-update to sync for lemmy
Same And double samez
It’s exciting to see all these apps ramping up development. Honestly, the greatest gift that Reddit gave to the fediverse is sending all their former third party developers here, because that will greatly accelerate development.
Thanks Obama… I meant Spez
As a long time Sync user this made my day!
Same!
Same here, I’m so excited!
I’m more than happy to pay for a service I enjoy so I legitimately cannot wait to give him my money.
Here’s to new beginnings in the Fediverse!
Yep, i’m permanently on Lemmy with this news.
This is genuinely exciting news.
Likely a game changer. I’ve been giving Lemmy a try. Jerboa isn’t too terrible either.
I agree. Been using Jerboa as well and it’s nice and usable enough as a placeholder, but I’ll be watching the Sync development. Can’t wait!
Jerboa has been nice, besides the weird glitch where it shoots me back to the top of a post when scrolling down. Lol
Otherwise it’s pretty good for a FOSS solution!
nah.
Mastodon has great apps and they are FOSS. Jerboa is “better-than-nothing”, it is bad.
Yeah, tusky for mastodon for example is great, I didn’t really get along with jerboa at all.
The newest update looks good imo.

The auto loading thing on the feed is driving me crazy! I know it’s a bug that is being fixed. The sooner the better.
It is technically not a bug but it is a feature which was useful when Lwmmy had very few users. It is getting changed anyway tho so it doesn’t really matter
Oh gotcha. Yeah that makes since if the post frequency is low it wouldn’t be noticeable.
As a recent lemmy convert from reddit who exclusively used Sync, this made my day. Thanks for the news.
This is HUGE! I was really missing Sync.
Yes it is, been a paid supporter of Sync for quite a while, glad to see this happening.
I saw it in the redditsync subreddit already - this is such great news, especially since I’m still struggling to get used to the Lemmy interface. I had bought Sync Pro 7 years ago and it is probably the most heavily used app on my phone.
i will follow the sync app to the ends of the earth
This has made my day! Sync for Reddit is amazing.
Wow, I’ve never even used Sync but from the screenshot of the Reddit app on Google Play it’s one of those UIs so good that make you want to use it. I’m currently fine with the Lemmy PWA but the more feature-complete Reddit apps that get “ported” to be used with Lemmy the better, especially to ease the transition for new users.
Sync is an absolutely wonderful app. I look forward to his contunued dev work
Just created an account then downloaded Jerboa. I am +/- ten minutes old here in Fediverse yet. About to delete my 11 year-old account in Reddit. Thank you u/spez
Same here !
