    voyager has a great ui. Only bad thing was it felt a bit junky before official play store release of the app but now it feels great. Just wish it would have a option to downlaod images.

        The spying for free version, promise of disabling it once you pay, and the expensive subscription based capitalism model absolutely does.

    Huge sync fan and pro user for many years now but I couldn’t get over the subscription and especially the one off cost, it’s just too much.

    Been using infinity for reddit as soon as sync went down and it’s easily my favourite app out of all that’s available but it’s not without it’s downsides, at least to me. So I’ll happily use inifity for lemmy from now on, it even seems to run better then the reddit app lol.

      Same here. It was my second favorite Reddit client (after Boost, and, for a while, Dash), but I feel he priced himself right out of the market. I’m waiting to see what Boost for Lemmy has to offer and at what cost.

      I never really warmed up to Infinity for Reddit, but I’ll give it another shot. Connect and LiftOff aren’t bad either for being this early in development and Voyager just came out swinging.

      I just paid for cheapest Sync Beta when I had Reddit, and I loved it… But $30 is too expensive. $5 seems more reasonable. And now I am addicted to using Jerboa.

        Yeah that’s what I mean, there’s too many good competition out their right now that don’t offer ads on top of lemmy not giving ads in the first place.

    I am really enjoying Sync so far. It’s a great Lemmy client.

      Yup. I had $5 of Google opinion rewards money saved, so it was only 15ish out of the bank account. I work full time… I think I’ll be fine. Plus honestly, the dude worked hard creating a fantastic app. He deserves to be rewarded for that.

    Can yall stop posting about this proprietary shitware app

    this comment was posted from Jerboa, the app where you don’t have to pay 20$ for the privilege of not seeing ads and not being tracked

      Yeah second that. I’m just waiting for community blocking to be implemented, user blocking is there but it’s not working right now.

        As far as I know, that’s the plan. They just haven’t had an initial non-alpha/beta release yet since the app is still quite unfinished (references to Reddit, certain menus just error out, etc.)

        You usually want to have a product that is kind of working when you ship it to normies

    What I’m still struggling with is if it’s still ok with my mortal compass to use Reddit to find information I know will be there. Specifically, product reviews.

    I’m no longer contributing content on Reddit, and I’m not passively browsing either, but how do y’all feel about tapping reddit’s wealth of information?

      I subscribe to RSS feeds for subreddits that don’t exist on Lemmy just so that I don’t give them any clicks or ad revenue.

      For answers to questions or problems that are only available on Reddit, I turn on my favorite privacy browser, I hold my breath, go to that specific post, get my answer, and gtfo asap.

      Like the saying goes, never stick it in crazy. But if you have to, be protected.

      Do whatever you want, bud. If the info is helpful to you, who is anybody to say you can’t access it?

      Why not? I still look up information there too, but I use an adblocker, so it’s not like Spez is profiting from me.
