Our Laurence, who art on Lemmy, Hallowed be thy app.

Thy Sync be done, thy beta come, On Lemmy, as it was on Reddit.

Give us this day, our daily build, And forgive us our non-Sync apps.

As we forgive those who Revanced without us.

Lead us not into new Reddit, But deliver us from spez.

Edit: Thanks, good idea. However I liked my abruptness at the end, it makes you think.

This is amazing but I think "u/spez" would make it read in the right cadence.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I don't think u/spez knows how to read

"Hallowed"

"Hollowed" means there is nothing inside

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Don't you dare go hollow!

This looks great. Nothing against Jerboa, but as a user of Sync for 11 years, I look forward to purchasing Sync for Lemmy!

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Agreed. But I have been enjoying trying out some different Lemmy apps. Liftoff is pretty good! But there's nothing yet that sway me from Sync.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Jerboa does weird things with my keyboard.

[โ€“] [email protected] 54 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Damn, that looks so good, like a stock Android app.

[โ€“] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

This looks great. Nothing against Jerboa, but as a user of Sync for over 11 years, I look forward to purchasing Sync for Lemmy!

[โ€“] [email protected] 35 points 1 year ago

It looks just list the original version. Good that everything seems to be going smoothly

[โ€“] [email protected] 27 points 1 year ago

Connect is good, don't get me wrong, but I want this badly

I love sync but...who doesn't use darkmode? That just burned my retinas.

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

I like using light mode during the day and dark mode at night.

Is there a download available yet for others to try?

I hope there's an option to see the upvotes as well as downvotes rather than just the total. That's one thing I've liked about Jerboa so far that other apps aren't doing.

[โ€“] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

Material You! Yes!

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Oh, you tease!

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Anyone else try to upvote in the screenshot?

Am I the only one on mobile that tapped the comment button in the screenshot at least once? Sync had me HOOKED.

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm willing to bet he's figured out a way to keep our phones at 100% too.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

I'm on KBin via Firefox with UBlock Origin and it kills my battery. Sync used like half as much battery, I can't wait to get back into it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Every day I eagerly wait for this awesome app to come out, and every new screen shot gets me more pumped.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I need dark mode, serif fonts, and very very large text. I'm not the only one. If you're able to pass that on and I see it done, I'm there. If not I'll have to wait for an app that does this.

[โ€“] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago

Sync supports all of those

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Comes from sync so it's likely it'll support that

Sync for Reddit had an insane number of options for theming and font customization. I'm pretty sure Sync for Lemmy is the same frontend.

looking clean AF

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

May be a dumb question, but wary is synch ? (Iโ€™m new to Lemmy btw)

[โ€“] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sync for Reddit used to be a very popular Android app for Reddit. It has a great design, and many awesome features. However, when reddit made their API have extremely high prices, sync stopped working along with many other popular apps.

The dev is now working on a client that will look similar and have many features, but for Lemmy.

Sync was originally a popular 3rd party Reddit client. After Reddit's crackdown on clients, the developer decided to make a Lemmy client instead, which is what this community is about

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago
