    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.

      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.

      Yeah using it rn is pretty ass compared to old reddit and 3rd party apps. Good things coming tho.

      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!

    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.

      Likely a game changer that has be 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!

    As a recent lemmy convert from reddit who exclusively used Sync, this made my day. Thanks for the news.

    This has made my day! Sync for Reddit is amazing.

    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.
