Not posting from the app obviously since submissions aren't supported just yet, but the app is otherwise awesome so far!!! Really well done ljdawson, just wanted to make this post to say thank you. I signed up for sync ultra right away.

Now that I have Sync again, I feel 0 desire to get ever go back to reddit again

The only thing lemmy was missing was a really solid client

[โ€“] ShakeThatYam@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Only time I Reddit now is when the lemmy.world servers are down ๐Ÿ˜‚

[โ€“] PKlempe@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

For this case I simply made a second account @lemmy.ml

[โ€“] kratoz29@lemmy.fmhy.net 2 points 2 years ago

Same, and with patched Sync for Reddit LMAO.

Miles ahead of any Lemmy app so far.

[โ€“] resin85@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago

Yup... bought the remove ads feature as soon as it showed up to support the dev. I imagine losing the revenue stream from reddit was pretty impactful.

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

Yeah I'm really liking it but have only tested a short time now.

God I missed Peeking ! No other app was doing it at the moment.

[โ€“] Rossel@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 years ago

I missed automatic AMP removal from links. Man, Sync is the best

[โ€“] baruchin@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What is peeking on Sync ?I'm a Boost former user so I haven't used Sync.

[โ€“] FlashZordon@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pressing and holding on a picture in the feed and it expanding. Very useful if you use compact view or don't have full height cards enabled.

[โ€“] OtakuAltair@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You can do that??

This changes everything

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

It really does change everything. Best feature out there.

[โ€“] Voyajer@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hello from the Sync for Lemmy app!

[โ€“] genesysguy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

First reply from Sync!!

[โ€“] Shepstr@feddit.uk 8 points 2 years ago

It's bloody marvelous

[โ€“] kratoz29@lemmy.fmhy.net 8 points 2 years ago (5 children)

My Lemmy.world account is crashing it, seems to be working fine with my fresh new FMHY one.

[โ€“] Sendbeer@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

All my accounts crash the second I try to change something in options after the account is setup.

[โ€“] kratoz29@lemmy.fmhy.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Seems that the latest bets got this fixed.

I have no idea how I survived the last 2 months without this, but my god is it beautiful to have you back, my beloved sync <3

[โ€“] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm actually having an issue where hidden posts keep unhiding themselves, but it isn't obvious what's triggering the bug quite yet.

[โ€“] static@midwest.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Unfortunately hide isn't native to Lemmy yet, you need to mark as read first so it doesn't come back. Also might require you to uncheck show read in your Lemmy settings

Weird issue I have is that links in text are like a way bigger size then the rest of the text for some reason.

That is amazing, I never knew that was a feature.

[โ€“] Neve8028@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

It's just one of those tiny quality of life features. I've been using sync for years and I'm constantly discovering new features haha.

Mine's still stuck on pending

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

I cancelled the auto install and just did it manually and worked fine.

Yes, definitely awesome. I'm getting a lot of Error 403, though. I'm sure it will stabilize. Really missed Sync.

[โ€“] Amir@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Lemmy.world is being DDoSed, for the time being you can try a different instance

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

There seems to be a lot of that. Thanks for the heads-up.

This would be a great time to hop to a new Lemmy instance

[โ€“] Pringles@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

I just want to say that I absolutely love being able to see the thumbnail picture enlarged by long clicking it again. I used Jerboa up until now, but it's absolutely great to have all those familiar gestures back.
