This has just leapfrogged every app I use. It is THE BEST app for Lemmy.

I loved Sync for Reddit, but let's not get too carried away. You can't submit posts yet.

Its nice but its an ad supported experience, I'd rather just pay for the app than pay a monthly/yearly subscription. Good new option, just not one I'll be using specifically.

Use private dns which blocks ads. I am using that and there are no ads.

[–] AlexisFR@jlai.lu 2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Great idea! Is Adguard still the all around best?

NextDNS is more customizable and less Russian.

We said it the same time XD

A lifetime purchase option has been added. A little pricy though imho.

[–] RaulitoElLobito@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The subscription model is not a great idea considering lemmy is not as popular as reddit.

[–] Streetdog@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I hate ads and will never download an app that has ads for a platform that doesn't have ads, just so I have to pay to get rid of ads (which of course includes tracking you for the best ads).

"No added ads" is a non-feature.

I understand people wanting to support the dev, but is their code so bad that they really have to add ads to make money? Apollo never had ads.

[–] AProfessional@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

iOS users are more likely to pay for apps. ad-supported is common. Of course you could so both.

I'm a dev myself. I'd never disrespect my userbase by adding ads and tracking to my products. Instead, they can choose to pay for real features.

Edit: But Sync are free to do as they wish. Just weird that they add ads to an ad-free platform. You're paying for the problem they created, not for innovation.

I received the alert it was available and downloaded it right away, so happy to be back on Sync!

Fantastic. No bugs for me so far but it's only been a few minutes (and I'm not using lemmy.world). I'm excited lol, feels so great to be back

[–] vpsxhtus@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

this is the best app for lemmy rn

[–] RaulitoElLobito@lemmy.world -4 points 2 years ago

Sorry no it's not.

[–] catsarebadpeople@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Mine still says pending but it seems to be trying. Excited to try it out

[–] i_r_n00b@reddthat.com 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I had to hit cancel and install again and then it went immediately. Not sure why it got stuck in pending mode. It feels good to have sync back!

That worked. Thanks!
