Is there a way to get it to work with a kbin account?
Kbin does not have APIs…yet. But it’s coming soon: https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/p/903221
Looks like I need to find a server then. Thanks.
Yet. As I understand it, that’s in the pipeline and at least one kbin app is in development.
Sync dev said he’s planning on adding kbin support too iirc.
Pumped!
Good thing. Liftoff would be an adfree and free alternative. But for those that loved sync, probably the only correct solution
I’m really digging Liftoff! It can use some customisation features, but it is pretty good as is. I think I will keep using it since the adfree price of sync is a bit too high for me.
I love Sync and will be using it going forward. But it’s really great that there are so many options for everyone.
Connect is much like Sync. In fact, I uninstalled Sync and went back to Connect.
I like Sync, but honestly, I think I still prefer Connect.
That’s why we love options! 3rd party apps ftw
They’re both good. I can’t get into other apps like Infinity though. I just tried it and now I’m too used to the sleek look of Sync. Connect is very close in the race, and without ads it may as well be neck and neck.
Connect for me was just a placeholder until Sync got released. So happy it’s back
It has an amazing amount of customization. I have sync configured in a way that reminds me a lot of boost. The developer has left nearly all options available.
Boost is coming though, I’m holding out for it.

Me either. Connect is good enough.
Now do Apollo for Lemmy!
Voyager is basically that. It’s on test flight or as a PWA on Lemmy.world
It’s good but Apollo has a level of polish that won’t be replicated for a while. It looks like Apollo, but it doesn’t 100% feel like it. Apollo for Lemmy would still be better than all of our current options imo.
Hopefully the native version, coming soon, will be a bit smoother than the pwa and have better integration with the OS.
It’s probably the best pwa I’ve ever used, but it’s still a pwa. And the native version will still just be a wrapper on the pwa, but it has the potential to be better.
Still, Apollo was around for a while which means it’s had more time for polish, and it had a lot more users, which meant more support, motivation, and money for development, as well as more people to submit feature requests and bug reports.
Indeed. It was a native app and it was such a polished gem. Christian’s vision from the beginning was to make the perfect Reddit IOS app for Reddit and he made it happen.
Memmy has been a great fill-in, as has Lemmios. Memmy is probably a little further along, but both are definitely “Apollo-inspired” and both have been nice to use. Still some features missing that I have to come to the site for.
If only, perhaps the Apollo developer will do a Lemmy client in time, I think for now he’s taking a moment to himself. Memmy is a pretty good iOS client.
Memmy is aiming to be Apollo for Lemmy.
Open-source and ad-free.
Is it libre and available on fdroid?
no and no.
Who cares? Infinity dropped an APK!
I used jerboa first for accessing lemmy on mobile but I’ve really liked snyc so far. It’s responsive, easy to use and so far reliable.
I’m making it my default app with jerboa as back up.
I know that Lemmy is years old, but as this is my first day on the platform, it feels like a whole new world.
Why would I leave reddit for an app with ads? Seems stupid to me
The privacy policy also seems intrusive. I’m gonna tap out and stay with Connect.
Yeah, same. I uninstalled the second I saw that crap. Trying to minimize that kind of junk and yet here we are.
Simple. The reason I left reddit wasn’t because of adds, it was because they screwed over 3rd party apps. When my preferred 3rd party app from reddit transitioned to Lemmy, why wouldn’t I continue using it?
The reason I used reddit was because of bacon reader which had no ads. Nuff said.
Could you release it on F-Droid store please?
f-droid is for open source apps only, sync is not open source
I dont blame developer, but my motto is: “Go full FOSS or buy IPhone”
hell yeah platform gatekeeping
Awesome! Loving the app ecosystem on Lemmy. Choices for all!
This is the 20th post I’ve seen of this posted so far. And I shall uplemmy them all.
This is the 3rd app I have installed for Lemmy. I’m going to have to consider uninstalling one! (Connect, Voyager, and now Sync)
Connect has been my primary app so far. I do really like that Sync allows me to customize how posts look. I am a former RIF and old reddit user, and dislike large image previews. I am really happy I can have a larger headline and smaller preview image.
Connect was definitely my main before this. It is actually not terrible. It is aggressively okay even. Lots of nice features. But it just doesn’t feel as smooth as sync for some reason. Maybe it’s the language that it was coded in? I’m not sure why but sync just feels buttery.
