Please give Sync a bad rating on the Play Store (lemmy.world)

Let's face it: the app has been abandoned for longer than is acceptable, especially at this price level. It's no longer working correctly on newer Lemmy versions, and there's no indication the dev is still active.

Yes, he worked similarly during Reddit times, but a) Sync was much cheaper back then, and b) Reddit didn't change as much.

Right now, to unsuspecting users Sync seems great given the 4.9 star rating on the Play Store. They'll possibly buy this app before noticing that it's subtly broken.

Please consider giving Sync a bad rating, but if you do so, explain why. Write about the broken functionality, so others don't fall into the same trap.

Try Eternity, it's good.

It's decent. My next favorite after Sync. However the upvote score isn't showing properly for me. It's the wrong count and goes downwards after I upvote. And if I do it again it gives a different number.

Unfortunately the dev on there is really inactive too. Although they've stated recently that they're going to start working on it again.

Sigh. It's too bad. I understand this isn't their main thing so I don't want to say too much.

Nice app aside from that though.

Yeah, the really slow updates and unfinished stuff sucks, but from the 6 or so apps I've tried, it was still the best.
