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:

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.

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!

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.

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!

Great news! I hope the developers of Relay and Apollo do the same. The more options the better!

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.

Great. I hope other devs will follow (dbrady if you’re reading this). I hope he ditches reddit’s forced naming scheme. Lemmy Sync.

I will purchase Sync Pro for lemmy when it comes out.

It’s been an outstanding app for me on the old site, and I look forward to firing it up again in a much better online environment.

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.

I heard that talklittle (RIF dev) was working on something for tildes, wonder if they’re interested in doing so for lemmy! Very exciting :D:D:D

Does the playstore allow developers to make a page for an app not yet developed? Would be cool when reddit shuts down 3rd party apps to have the sync for reddit app send you to a sign up page for sync for lemmy.
