Omg.... I can't even tell you how happy I am about this!! I missed sync. I knew I did, but I truly didn't realise how much I missed it!

This is amazing! Thank you for all the hard work!!

This is great. Never used Sync before. Will gladly pay for the app

Hell yeah!!!! App looks sick, this is my first interaction with a Sync product! Runs smooth and gives lots of settings that I appreciate.

Congrats on being first to market out of the other polished Reddit apps who are switching - I hadn't used Sync before (I used RIF, Joey and then most recently Boost) but now I'm committed to Lemmy and already loving this experience!

Thank you!!

Ah perfect, I restored a backup from reddit sync and it's like nothing changed, I love it! Can't wait to buy the pro version

Now lemmy feels like home. Thanks!

As a Boost user I'm glad this came out first. I was getting tired of waiting for Boost to release a Lemmy app, this one feels much better.

Just a Incredible app It Feel like being back home again and Man Do I miss it. Plus it dodo all over reddit official app and it's just in beta :)

This looks like a great app, but the premium subscription model seems really lame. I'm so tired of everyone indefinitely milking users with monthly fees. My last reddit app was a one-time fee, and I was happy to pay that.

So I think there's a one-time fee to remove ads in the next release. Someone said we're just waiting on the google play approval process.

FWIW though, the amount of usage I got out of sync for Reddit, I'm happy to throw the dev some money for a while if it keeps development going. Nice to know I'll be able to switch to non-subscription if I ever want to though

Let me buy this one time please.

[โ€“] WillfulBedder@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I guess I'll be spending a lot more time on Lemmy now. It's like sync never went away ส˜โ€ฟส˜

[โ€“] tulth@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago

hell ya! just installed!

[โ€“] cyberpunk007@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Works pretty damn good if you ask me. I feel like I'm using Reddit again ๐Ÿ˜Š

[โ€“] krush_groove@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Now I can finally try Lemmy. Haven't been on Reddit for ages and Lemmy is all new to me.

Can anyone recommend a primer/beginner post for starting to use Lemmy?

I didn't see kbin.social in the list of instances when logging in, and when typing manually, it returns an error. I'm still learning lemmy - is there a reason kbin login doesn't work?

Anyways it hardly matters, this acct is fine too and the app is amazing. Perfect timing with RIF now returning Error Forbidden while logged out (officially dead, rip).

Looking forward to using this more, thx y'all

Installed Sync as soon as I could, but went back to Jerboa for now due to lack of a one-time purchase option. Not a fan of subscriptions, I need less of those in my life.

[โ€“] xtapa@feddit.de 6 points 2 years ago (6 children)

Looks nice and all, but what are those "Sponsored Content" blocks for? Is there going to be Ads soon?

Is there an APK available so I can test it out on bluestacks? Iโ€™m an iOS user.

Typing this from Sync for Lemmy. Love it already! Feels right at home.

I do not mind the subscription costs for the premium version. Yes, in a perfect world a lifetime purchase would be nice. But this isn't a perfect world. Lemmy isn't a casual game that can be considered "done" once it's developed. No, Lemmy and the Fediverse are new and unfamiliar and it is likely there will be significant chances to the ecosystem and this development effort for the developer.
