So far the only community I have blocked is the synch for lemmy community, because of the massive spam of posts about synch.

So can we please stop spamming about it in other communities too.

I’m not an Android user, so I don’t know Sync, but it’s bound to be a better Lemmy app than those godawful cross platform ones. I’m glad it exists!

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It definitely is, but mostly because it's got 10 years of a head start UX wise since it used to be a reddit app.

Obligatory G'day from the kbin PWA :)

We're still waiting for our native app.

i use sync btw

[–] LaughingFox@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I didn't use Sync with reddit but since it's the best one for Lemmy... Here I am! On Sync! Enjoying it!

This shit wouldn't be fun if we didn't fight and shit talk each other from time to time. And I mean in general, not on the subject of the week. I'm the kind of person who will compliment a insult directed at me if it's creative or pause an argument for some "real talk". We are on earth for a short time, please don't take any of this shit seriously.

Is it considered wrong meme because Sync for Lemmy is only available on Android, while the meme is using an older iPhone?

What's the difference between Sync and the other apps for Lemmy?

[–] ijeff@lemdro.id 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Unlike what some folks have suggested, I don't notice any speed or loading advantages over the other native apps. Some of the other offerings may be a little better but the biggest performance gains when it comes to loading will come from moving off the largest instances to a smaller one.

The main differentiating characteristics IMO are below.

Pros:

  • The interface is essentially the one from the Reddit app. It's a mature design in terms of polish and is overall more minimalistic and clean UI. I find it consistent and intuitive to navigate.

  • Decent amount of customization. While not exhaustive, the options presented are all well thought out. This includes moving things to side bar, bottom bar, and/or a floating action button.

Caveats:

  • Ads by default, with a $20 one-time payment option to remove them. There's also an optional subscription (or a $100 lifetime subscription) for added features, which will include push notifications. Prices may be much higher for some other countries as adjustments for purchasing power haven't been made yet.

  • As an early build, some basic functionality hasn't yet been implemented including submitting posts or editing post titles. If you're a moderator, mod functionality and reports haven't been implemented yet.

  • Like other apps that were originally for Reddit, there are still some legacy references to subreddits. Sync also seems to still use orange for upvotes and blue for downvotes, which is the opposite from Lemmy.

  • It's closed source. Without OAuth, the Lemmy devs have discouraged logging in with closed source apps (although I personally trust ljdawson).

  • Some people don't trust Sync having ad tracking built-in. They're disabled if you purchase ad removal. Otherwise, there was only one incident in the past where the app began injecting Amazon referral codes into URLs but this was reversed.

Sync is closed source, while most of the other apps are open source. So you can't see or modify the code of Sync.
