      I was wondering why you are “Looking For Group” 😄

      Seems like that also goes for “Let’s F****ng Go”

      Brilliant, my friend. Thank you for your hard work.

      I’m going to throw this link here for you to check out. It’s a table comparing Mastodon apps which already has a big ecosystem on the Fediverse. Maybe you can find some inspiration. :)

      Hey! Late to the game, but I’m hoping to sign up too. Is it full? I entered my email and the screen doesn’t do anything after i press “continue”?

      Anyways, nice to see you here!

      As long as it’s as snappy as the reddit client I’ll be switching over from wefwef as soon as it’s out. Thanks for being awesome!

    I genuinly think a good client can skyrocket the number of users. Even if users can just signup and browse all-active

      Try Liftoff until Sync is ready - it’s much smoother than Jerboa.

      Just be mindful of the default ‘All’ view is literally all of the lemmyverse - via that view you can’t interact with instances that you aren’t logged on in.

      Instead change it to be ‘[email protected]’ to use it as normal.

        Honestly I have mixed results and opinions with both Jerboa and Liftoff… Liftoff, for example, wouldn’t even load a GIF that I posted when Jerboa would.

        They currently also both randomly crash on me but I think that’s most likely related to lemmy.world not being on version 0.18+ yet.

    My wallet is already waiting eagerly for a pro version.

    In the meantime I can highly recommend Connect for Lemmy. Also a highly motivated dev with an awesome app.

    It’s really fun to try out all these different apps.

      Thank you for this.

      I just installed Connect. Soooo much better than Jerboa and the mobile browser. Actually a much closer experience to Sync than I would have thought.

      And I am already contributing so much more cause the experience is that much better. Hearty recommendation guys

      Sync is really gonna be a game changer in interaction.

      I just switched from connect to Liftoff. I am liking Liftoff better. Looks nice and I like that comments collapse with one tap, and up/down vote arrows and the reply button are all shown in the comments as a default (rather than having to tap or swipe to see the arrows).

      Liftoff also has better formatting options. Here are a few screenshots:

        Switched from Connect to Liftoff last week too. Kinda makes sense why it’s a little bit ahead of the curve given that it’s a fork of Lemmur.

        I switched from Jerboa to Liftoff after every singe update they introduce breaks something new and they don’t fix existing issues. My current biggest issues with Liftoff is the very un-smooth scrolling, that hard-coded bright blue, and that you can change font size for headers and sub-headers, but not general text. I’d like it to be 1-2 notches larger, on a phone with large display it’s getting a bit small.

          Your instance seems to use a beta version of lemmy so it’s possible there are API changes that make it incompatible with some 3rd party apps. Either that or the instance is being hosted behind cloudflare and the operator have strict anti bots option enabled (traffics from apps is almost similar with bot traffics). If yo ask your instance’s admins, they might be able to do something about it.

          I’m not sure what that’s about. I tried with lemmy.one and had the same issue. For me it works great with lemm.ee and lemmy.world. Guessing it’s a big that’s hopefully getting worked on.

      agreed, this is great. Updates keep flowing. A visual separator between posts in amoled mode would be nice but its excellent. Devs should start charging for these already. At least in the settings you can ‘buymeacoffee’ for connect.

      Connect is great. It can hide read posts. But I miss Syncs feature to swipe to hide. That was the killer feature that made me stay with Sync for reddit.

    As so many others have said, their app of choice WAS Reddit, and Sync was Reddit for me. There’s some good Lemmy apps out there, but my muscle memory misses Sync!

        Both ‘Microsoft Edge’ and ‘Mozilla Firefox’ on my computer and ‘Samsung Internet’ browser and ‘Lemur Browser’ on my Android smartphone failed to register my subscription. So I had to to use an app on Android called ‘Flyperlink’ which created ‘Bubbles’ like Messenger does for each web page you open before I got it to work.

    I just want to mention that your signup submission endpoint syncapps.us14.list-manage.com is being blocked by Firefox’s enhanced tracking protection. If anyone having trouble with signup, try temporarily disabling adblocker or tracking protection.

    Boost4Lemmy already put a placeholder into Google Play store so people can get notified when a first build drops.

    Doing the same with Sync4Lemmy would be a good idea…

    Hell yeah! Sync is the reason I joined the fediverse when I heard you’re making an app. Been a loyal user of your reddit apps since the beginning, there is no comparison it was the best! Can’t wait to see how this project matures. So far, seems to be much better than other social platforms simply because it’s decentralized and all the benefits that brings. Things are looking promising and I, for one, don’t miss reddit at all!
