      This is going to be a game changer. I’ve been using Sync Pro since 2015 and can’t see myself using anything else for mobile browsing. Thanks for the awesome app!

      That is great news! I look forward to trying it when it is ready. I really enjoyed using Sync and was so sad that reddit ruined their ecosystem.

      I’m literally getting emotional. For me, Sync was reddit. Been using it for over 11 years. Can’t wait to be an early adopter and never let go again.

      If you need beta testers familiar with the original Sync or anything, happy to help!

        We’ve been using it for sync development for the last few years.

        When there’s enough to release of course they’ll be changelog and posts etc too.

        Discord is fine, if that’s how he wants to disseminate the information. But maybe use a community on Lemmy, for the Lemmy app

      Excellent! Sync was my first and only Reddit app. I think I had multiple lifetime subscription s to Sync Pro. Very glad you are continuing with Lemmy! I’ve been done with Reddit and haven’t been back since the day I saw that you were shutting Sync down.

      Well yeah, but that’s the difference between volunteering and being on a big salary. Hopefully the influx of new users will lead to more code input though, and more donations.

      Yeah using it rn is pretty ass compared to old reddit and 3rd party apps. Good things coming tho.

    It’s exciting to see all these apps ramping up development. Honestly, the greatest gift that Reddit gave to the fediverse is sending all their former third party developers here, because that will greatly accelerate development.

    The end of Sync is the reason why I will leave Reddit at the end of the month. So nice to see that we eventually might get a new app for Lemmy!

    I saw it in the redditsync subreddit already - this is such great news, especially since I’m still struggling to get used to the Lemmy interface. I had bought Sync Pro 7 years ago and it is probably the most heavily used app on my phone.

    Just created an account then downloaded Jerboa. I am +/- ten minutes old here in Fediverse yet. About to delete my 11 year-old account in Reddit. Thank you u/spez

    Wow, I’ve never even used Sync but from the screenshot of the Reddit app on Google Play it’s one of those UIs so good that make you want to use it. I’m currently fine with the Lemmy PWA but the more feature-complete Reddit apps that get “ported” to be used with Lemmy the better, especially to ease the transition for new users.

    I’m genuinely so excited for this and and the same time hoping boost makes one too. They recently dropped their latest update and it looks beyond pretty with the rounded edge cards and adaptive colours.

      Never used Sync (I used RiF then slide) but I’ll check it out when it’s released. The is great news for lemmy and the fediverse. Oh and fuck reddit.

    As a recent lemmy convert from reddit who exclusively used Sync, this made my day. Thanks for the news.

      Same here, I’m so excited!

      I’m more than happy to pay for a service I enjoy so I legitimately cannot wait to give him my money.

      Here’s to new beginnings in the Fediverse!

    So many good news. Glad these developers are also trying out other options since Reddit has started shitting itself.
