Show me a foss client which shows community suggestions in the search bar when you start typing and auto collapsing comments features. Otherwise you can’t change my mind.
Liftoff
No suggestion in search bar. I want this. Connect has this feature but auto comment collapsing is not there.
Ah true. I am Downloading Connect. Thanks
Get Sync. Give it a shot. You’ll love it . The seamless design . Fast object loading will spoil you.
Fuck that. I did check in play store and it says that it collects data. No, thank you.
Be polite and chill. And what you can do is simply choose not to send data. It’s an option that’s provided in the app fyi lmao. " Oh it collects data I heard it from this guy" see for yourself lol.
One more Syncpisser detected who deliberately wants spying.
I’m on Sync right now, immediately went to see how much it was to buy the pro version only to discover it’s now subscription and if I want a one time payment it’s a hundred bucks… Even just removing adverts is 20 bucks… Fuck this thing, I’m uninstalling.
It’s okay to uninstall when you cannot pay. Understandable. But it’s your problem. I don’t get how paying for something good hurts you guys so much. You can choose other apps instead of being salty about it. The only reason you are salty is because you like sync but you wish it was cheaper.
“the only reason you are salty is because you like sync but you wish it was cheaper”
Err… Yes, that’s entirely the point…
I use summit. Its great!

just because it’s closed source doesn’t automatically make it bad
The spying for free version, promise of disabling it once you pay, and the expensive subscription based capitalism model absolutely does.
Connect: Am I a joke to you?
All these shit posts are fun, but why is connect a red haired step child all the time? Any legit arguments against it? Has room for improvement, but it’s the best I’ve found thus far.
Not Foss.
The only thing I didn’t like about connect was for image loading. When I click on an image it is blurry and comes to clarity. Loading is an issue. I don’t know if there is any settings for it inside the app. Whereas in sync it loads perfectly fine for me.
Why do none of these memes mention connect? It’s the best one.
I’ve tried Connect and it failes to save imagesfor me. So maybe some incompatibility or something, but now I’m trying to live with Liftoff
I wondered the same thing.
It’s definitely the best one after Sync.
I dunno, Connect was the one I probably liked the least out of the 1.34 million I tried.
If you think that’s the best one, you haven’t tried Sync.
This is why Syncpissers should be nudged away. Shilling spyware everywhere.
Bad take.
Those who say that, haven’t tried Sync.
I actually tried it before, didn’t feel it was that much better over the open source alternatives
Infinity is going to be great once everything is properly supported!
Any news if it’s coming to the Play Store?
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
Yeah second that. I’m just waiting for community blocking to be implemented, user blocking is there but it’s not working right now.
Anyone who has used liftoff, what’s the difference really with sync? I tried sync but couldn’t really tell a difference.
However the first app to come out with a tablet or two pane mode, I’m making my move to them
Oh nice! Had only poked around on my phone for a little at work, definitely need to try on my tablet then
Just wait until Boost comes out…
When Sync got released, I was feeling guilty using it (as a jerboa user). But over time, I got used to it. It makes me use lemmy on my phone too, so I still consider this step in a better direction.
Functionality wise, I dislike icons and app icon on jerboa.
You know it feels good
If it gets people to stop using Reddit, it works
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.
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.
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.
Infinity for lemmy just dropped in F-droid. Hello old friend…glad you’ve arrived
Hmm, can’t find it on fdroid, do I need to add a repo?
It’s specifically on the IzzyOnDroid repo, instructions here:
I think the version on repo is older than the git version
It’s just a version number mixup. The repo version is indeed the latest. More here: [email protected]
Infinity
🧎
I was a user of RiF, RedReader and Infinity. Infinity when it gets out of alpha, is going to be insane.
Sync was not even close to these, and I hated the v20 fat Material UI look, stuck to v18 till it stopped working.
Thanks! Just grabbed it. It is my favorite so far, probably cause I used infinity on Reddit.
Once Boost for Lemmy releases, inject it straight in my veins
How will users welcome it though. I kind of want to see. Will it also get a Sync reception? Will lemmy have double standards? Let’s see what u/mayayo will do.
Jerboa is based on Boost.
