Just using firefox android's Add Site To Homepage button for lemmy has worked pretty well for me. i have jeroba but i like the web app a little better. i am open to trying newer lemmy apps as they come out though.

This is the new community on Lemmy
Edit of course it's a lemmy.world community. Sorry guys, I'm not on the beehaw instance so I see both.
Awesome news, hopefully rif will follow suit
Cool, that would be ideal for me as its the reddit app I use(d).
Ah great, i was almost giving up on such a thing happening (the other devs doing great work tho of course)
awesome news! i used to jump between Sync and Boost for reddit.
ive never got to use any third-party app for reddit, just the official one... as matter of fact i just discovered that such thing existed when the current crisis began lol. since i decided to flee of that dictatorial ship and now found myself here, kinda lost, id like to ask u guys if this "Sync for Reddit" was good and if we can expect the lemmy version to be as well (ofc, taking into acc the differences between both platforms).
im asking that to be able deciding if i should watch it up close or nah. thanks guys
It was my favorite app for a number of years. Pretty easy to use out of the box, but it came with an overwhelming number of things you could customize so you could have precisely the reddit experience you wanted. Pricing was fair at US$1.06/mo for the paid version. I can't recall ever running into any bugs in the time I used it.
I'd say it's worth keeping an eye on.

I've never used Sync but I just installed it and it's pretty slick. This is fantastic news indeed.
Yesssssssss.
Glad to know I can hopefully still continue to use sync after the 30th :D
It is good, if only because it means the Lemmy developers can focus on back end development.

Yay! I've been using Sync Pro for a few years and love it.
Thank goodness, sync was the app that worked the best for me! Awesome to see more apps coming out already
Thank god. Sync is the app I was using before this entire shitshow.
Really hope Relay does the same
Best news all day!
I think Christian mentioned he isn't planning to port Apollo to Lemmy, but I haven't given up hope just yet!

When I used Android Sync was my favorite client and it wasn't even close for second place. But I'm iOS now so I will patiently wait for someone to build something great over here. Android users are lucky to have such a great dev moving over to Lemmy!

Holy Cow, thats some freaking great news!
That's awesome to hear! Hope there's a lot of code that doesn't need to be changed.
When I read about this yesterday, I was so damn happy about it! I loved Sync for the last ~10 years and I am thrilled to have the dev on lemmy. Its going to be awesome!
Sync was my Reddit app of choice, this is great news for Lemmy.
Great news!, if kbin implements a lemmy-like api (which is being discussed) this app would be entirely compatible as well!
