Didn’t see this on the community yet
Our Laurence, who art on Lemmy, Hallowed be thy app.
Thy Sync be done, thy beta come, On Lemmy, as it was on Reddit.
Give us this day, our daily build, And forgive us our non-Sync apps.
As we forgive those who Revanced without us.
Lead us not into new Reddit, But deliver us from spez.
Edit: Thanks, good idea. However I liked my abruptness at the end, it makes you think.
This is amazing but I think “u/spez” would make it read in the right cadence.
I don’t think u/spez knows how to read
You are 100% correct but I just meant u/spez and evil have the same number of syllables
/s :P
(Spez has clearly demonstrated his inability to read, just saying that I got what you were saying haha)
I’m crying from laughter rn 😭😭
“Hallowed”
“Hollowed” means there is nothing inside
Don’t you dare go hollow!
Considering the API/experience is quite different (with its own nuances) in the fediverse, the idea to create an app from scratch was a good idea. Copying and pasting UI code and framework from Sync aside. Especially when the platform is being improved to handle some meaningful load/traffic right now and is clearly needing further development - he’s got time. We are already week 4 of a 3-6 week estimate, and he’s teasing us with some very nice screenshots already. Reddit gave very short notice of the API changes, and they then carried them out. Ultimate subscribers leaving in droves, sadly. Even with the choice he was just making about usernames, it’s clear to me that he’s been putting a lot of attention to detail in the first appearance of Sync for Lemmy. Everything is important when it comes to being a class leader, there is nothing more important than setting the example that others follow or copy. When other developers come into your Lemmy community and try to snipe users so blatently as what has happened - is it any wonder he’s wanting perfection!
It’s about sending a message. He’s clearly wanting to show these other android developer noobs how it’s done.
This looks great. Nothing against Jerboa, but as a user of Sync for 11 years, I look forward to purchasing Sync for Lemmy!
Agreed. But I have been enjoying trying out some different Lemmy apps. Liftoff is pretty good! But there’s nothing yet that sway me from Sync.
Jerboa does weird things with my keyboard.
It looks just list the original version. Good that everything seems to be going smoothly
Damn, that looks so good, like a stock Android app.

Is there a download available yet for others to try?

Connect is good, don’t get me wrong, but I want this badly
I love sync but…who doesn’t use darkmode? That just burned my retinas.
deleted by creator
Yeah of course, just meant that someone didn’t use it :)
I like using light mode during the day and dark mode at night.
Yeah it’s weird seeing sync in light mode
Oh, you tease!
I hope there’s an option to see the upvotes as well as downvotes rather than just the total. That’s one thing I’ve liked about Jerboa so far that other apps aren’t doing.
Please, I can only get so erect.
Come on, we all know the situation with 3rd party apps and NSFW content, you don’t have to rub me off.
I need dark mode, serif fonts, and very very large text. I’m not the only one. If you’re able to pass that on and I see it done, I’m there. If not I’ll have to wait for an app that does this.
Sync supports all of those
Comes from sync so it’s likely it’ll support that
Thanks I’ll look at it when it’s out, for sure.
Sync for Reddit had an insane number of options for theming and font customization. I’m pretty sure Sync for Lemmy is the same frontend.
Okay. I’m 100% sure I tested it before and it wasn’t readable enough to me. I will definitely try again when it comes out for Lemmy tho’!
Changing the max value of a slider is pretty trivial from a programming standpoint, so if the current max isn’t enough for you when the first release is available, I’d say it’s definitely worth sending some feedback.
Throbs in anticipation
Is there room for another here?
I’m doing my part!
I’m willing to bet he’s figured out a way to keep our phones at 100% too.
I’m on KBin via Firefox with UBlock Origin and it kills my battery. Sync used like half as much battery, I can’t wait to get back into it.
Every day I eagerly wait for this awesome app to come out, and every new screen shot gets me more pumped.
