Sadly I think I’m finally ready to put Sync out to pasture since it isn’t maintained.

    I did so last week, when the amount of posts where Sync wouldn’t show me the comments became annoying. I switched to Boost, and after some tinkering got it to a state where the UI was adequate for me.

    I’m still pretty new and I’ve only tried one mobile client so far. I’m pretty fond of Mlem. It seems to do what I need it to and it’s pretty intuitive for me. Although it only works on iOS so that might not be useful for you depending on your mobile situation.

      It’s made the migration from Reddit as smooth as butter. It’s like I never left.

    Summit is peak Lemmy!

    Awesome app, awesomer dev. If it doesn’t do what you want, talk to them and they’ll probably do it.

    Not FOSS, but free and no ads.

    Would not be enjoying Lemmy near as much without it thanks to all the great features like multi-community support and endless customization.

      Summit holds practically the same quality as Sync for Reddit had… If not more at this point.

      And yeah, the dev is great and very communicative, he must love his own project to be so active regarding it, and it makes sense I have tried the app since its conception and it has greatly improved.

      I don’t want to bash other Lemmy clients… But I have tried nearly all of them and Summit always speaks “smoother” for me.

        I switched from Sync to Summit when I finally gave up on the sync dev ever doing anything more. Summit has frequent updates and fills the same spot for me as Sync, which is important to me as I used sync with reddit for a long time.

          Yeah, it is not Sync, but it is just as good, and we can work with the dev to make it even better than what Sync was!

        I agree, they definitely have to be passionate about it, and I feel it really shows. Truly shocked it never seems as popular as some others. I’ve given a number of bug reports and feedback/suggestions and they’ve all been addressed shockingly quick, and it’s fun to think this or that bit is there just because I agreed nicely. 😇

          Yeah I get it, it definitely is not a competition, but if it is for the sake of sharing the love then yeah I agree that this client requires a higher user base 😁

      I’ve been using boost since that’s what I used for reddit. Just not been vibing with the lemmy version as much for some reason.

      Decided to give summit a go after reading some comments here, and while I’ve only had the app for an hour or two I’m really happy with it so far

        I’m glad that was helpful!

        It looked great and I really wanted to stick with the dev on it once they originally announced they were going to make a Lemmy version, but even after a couple months going between it and some other apps, while it looked much the same as Boost for Reddit, it just didn’t feel the same.

    Thunder is my favourite. It’s an android app and I got it from F-Droid (Izzy on Droids Repo). Clean and customizable interface, convenient features like for example multi account support. I would recommend it!

      This is actually my favorite too! I downloaded like 5-6 different ones a few months ago and tried them all and played with the settings to see which I liked the layout of best. This one was my favorite.

    I have been enjoying Raccoon though development might have slowed down after a previous dev. left sometime back.

    Boost is a good alternative.

    I use Eternity. AFAIK it doesn’t have ads and it’s pretty much what I’m looking for. I tried others but they had ads and I couldn’t tolerate that.
