Hi everyone, first comment on here. Going to try to get an MVP out within the next 3-6 weeks.
I’ll be posting updates on discord:
Cheers, Ljdawson
This is going to be a game changer. I’ve been using Sync Pro since 2015 and can’t see myself using anything else for mobile browsing. Thanks for the awesome app!
MVP
Most Valuable Program?
Minimum viable product
MVP! MVP! MVP!
That is great news! I look forward to trying it when it is ready. I really enjoyed using Sync and was so sad that reddit ruined their ecosystem.
This is awesome! Thank you!
This is exciting.
That’s fantastic news!
I’m literally getting emotional. For me, Sync was reddit. Been using it for over 11 years. Can’t wait to be an early adopter and never let go again.
If you need beta testers familiar with the original Sync or anything, happy to help!
Sigh…I just put on new underwear too.
Great news, I was really hoping this would happen. Thank you!
Why discord? Why do I have to sell my soul to view a changlog? Why are people trying to use discord to solve a problem that doesn’t exist?
We’ve been using it for sync development for the last few years.
When there’s enough to release of course they’ll be changelog and posts etc too.
The whole fediverse needs some serious UX work.
Well yeah, but that’s the difference between volunteering and being on a big salary. Hopefully the influx of new users will lead to more code input though, and more donations.
Wow, I’ve never even used Sync but from the screenshot of the Reddit app on Google Play it’s one of those UIs so good that make you want to use it. I’m currently fine with the Lemmy PWA but the more feature-complete Reddit apps that get “ported” to be used with Lemmy the better, especially to ease the transition for new users.
Sync is an absolutely wonderful app. I look forward to his contunued dev work
i will follow the sync app to the ends of the earth
Yep, i’m permanently on Lemmy with this news.
I saw it in the redditsync subreddit already - this is such great news, especially since I’m still struggling to get used to the Lemmy interface. I had bought Sync Pro 7 years ago and it is probably the most heavily used app on my phone.
As a long time Sync user this made my day!
Same here, I’m so excited!
I’m more than happy to pay for a service I enjoy so I legitimately cannot wait to give him my money.
Here’s to new beginnings in the Fediverse!
Same!
The end of Sync is the reason why I will leave Reddit at the end of the month. So nice to see that we eventually might get a new app for Lemmy!
As a Sync user since 2017, this is amazing news!
Just created an account then downloaded Jerboa. I am +/- ten minutes old here in Fediverse yet. About to delete my 11 year-old account in Reddit. Thank you u/spez
Now THIS is good news!
It’s exciting to see all these apps ramping up development. Honestly, the greatest gift that Reddit gave to the fediverse is sending all their former third party developers here, because that will greatly accelerate development.
Thanks Obama… I meant Spez
This is HUGE! I was really missing Sync.
This is genuinely exciting news.
Likely a game changer that has be giving Lemmy a try. Jerboa isn’t too terrible either.
I agree. Been using Jerboa as well and it’s nice and usable enough as a placeholder, but I’ll be watching the Sync development. Can’t wait!
Jerboa has been nice, besides the weird glitch where it shoots me back to the top of a post when scrolling down. Lol
Otherwise it’s pretty good for a FOSS solution!
This has made my day! Sync for Reddit is amazing.
