Hey LJ!

Just another redfugee here and long time Sync user. I'm excited to see what you come up with.

[โ€“] thecodemonk@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago

If you need beta testers, sign me up!

[โ€“] Crazychicken563@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

I've signed up! Been using Sync Pro for so many years, I'll continue to do so on this new platform

[โ€“] kenbw2@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Can we have this one supported on non-Google Android?

I was stuck on Sync 19 because of this

I was unsure where to move after reddit, but when you annouced Sync for Lemmy it was clear as day. Thanks for keeping Sync up and running!

[โ€“] MacaroniLove@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Just subscribed to Lemmy.world because of the message in Sync for Reddit, so I'm definitely looking forward to buy your app again. Still not too sure about the differences between Reddit and Lemmy, other than Lemmy is slow, but it's probably getting a lot of attention suddenly.

I'm so excited for Lemmy Sync! I've been using Sync for Reddit for many, many years and absolutely adore the app - the new app will certainly ease the transition to Lemmy!

[โ€“] Spudly@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

I'll buy Pro again!

[โ€“] Meanshadows35@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Yes!! Sync was how I browsed Reddit 95%+ of the time and I have no desire to use the official reddit app. Stoked that sync for lemmy is confirmed!

[โ€“] Guster@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Can't wait to use it.

[โ€“] YosemiteFinish@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 years ago

I'm so excited for this, we all appreciate the immense amount of work this must take.

[โ€“] CupDock@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Can't wait! Liftoff is really good, but Sync was better.

[โ€“] Jackolantern@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is there like a timeline for this?

And I just want to say thank you for doing this development

[โ€“] sotolf@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

About 6 weeks for a mvp from what I understood, but that was around a week ago, so around 6 weeks

[โ€“] ShaggyDemiurge@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Was this a typo, or a funny joke on software development?

Anxiously waits in anticipation

[โ€“] LazerFX@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

I've been using Sync for many years, and I'll be switching over. I started with sh.itjust.works, and have moved to kbin.social because it supports a proper OAuth login process... I've read some people suggesting that kbin is a slightly differnet API than other federation sources, but... if it takes time, I'll wait, no worries. Or I'll create another account somewhere else... I think porting accounts and such is something that needs to be better handled, as does such a lot of the UI across all the different federation instances, but hopefully that's something Sync can handle :) Thanks for your hard work, and you can guarantee that if you offer it, I'll be going lifetime subscriber again. Totally worth it.

[โ€“] ThreePointsShort@vlemmy.net 3 points 2 years ago

This is great, I can't wait!

[โ€“] sil3ntki11@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Can't wait, thank you!

Hi lj random question regarding sync for reddit. Do you know by any chance when the imgur rapid api key will expire?

[โ€“] Lamhfada@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

That's great news, as someone who bought Sync for Reddit pro all those years ago, and who just heard about/signed up for Lemmy in the last 5 minutes.

Looking forward to trying it out and learning more about Lemmy!

[โ€“] Stylus_XL@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Sync is/was one of my favourite apps since 2013 - looking forward to seeing what the Lemmy experience is like.

Good night, sweet prince. Not goodbye, only until next time.

[โ€“] sotolf@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago

Wow, that's a lot of signups !

[โ€“] aquinteros@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

[โ€“] Deffi@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (6 children)

Exciting! Are you starting from scratch or are you able to copy portions from the old code over?

Great to hear that about time reddit's monopoly ended, too many shitty decisions they need punished

[โ€“] dillis@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago
