OP didn't come to hurt feelings.

OP came to hurt some butts!

I'm fine with paying a one-time charge for an app, but I will never rent software.

Everyone is getting bent out of shape. Just use whatever app you like best. I have 5 apps installed that I'm testing including Sync.

That being said, my 2 cents regarding Sync: I don't mind paying for a great app like Sync, but I'm not crazy about subscription models. I know there is a one time option but $100 for a mobile app is beyond nuts.

EDIT: $100 is for the lifetime "ultra" plan. It's $20 to remove ads.

There's a line in the sand with security and transparency on one side and ease-of-use and convenience on the other.

I feel like most people don't really care about open source or federations..they just want an easy to access news/commenting platform.

It's a great examples of devs telling users what they want.

I've found Thunder to be the best so far. But I'm holding out for Boost.

I have zero problems with jerboa, but I'll give sync a try to see what everyone is so excited about.

Y'all sound real kool-aid, though.

Update 1: Not digging the bevels around every post, is there an option to disable that I haven't found?

Update 2: I know it's a small thing, but on a phone screen, that every-post bezel is making every post noticeably smaller. I'ma go back to jerboa and try sync again in a week or something after you crowd have hammered the dev with feedback.

Update 3: I don't want the top and bottom bars snapping up and down with every swipe either, that's gotta be an option right?

Peace out guys, and enjoy.

Sync has been around for a long time and has loads of customisations. If only you'd bothered to go through the settings before giving up, you'd have been able to make Sync your own.
