It's like having Reddit back, this is amazing. 🙏

For as long as I can remember Reddit and Sync have been one and the same. I never used Reddit website or app, only ever used Sync to browse Reddit hosted content. I used it a lot. I've missed it a lot.

Between the Lemmy platform and Sync client, to all intents and purposes what Reddit was has been fully restored/migrated.

I know it's early days, but I did not expect to see anything like this so soon and it gives me hope that Lemmy can grow and thrive into the network of people that always made Reddit what it was. Everything that's needed is there - early, a little rough around the edges, but there. And being improved constantly.

Hallelujah!

Once Sync for Lemmy got to an even usable state I completely stopped using Reddit. Here's to the next 10 years of development!

As I said back on reddit multiple times: you are a legend. Thanks for your work!

It is a really nice streamlined interface.

I tried relay since sync ended and I still get annoyed at things it doesn't do the way sync does lol. Randomly looked sync up and was like oh shit here it is! Feels so good

Aaagh It's taken me four months to finally get into lemmy. And grateful to find a sync option for it here my first successful day. I have just downloaded sync for lemmy. What a relief. Reddit is truly awful. It's been unbearable over there the last few months. Absolutely horrible. Thank goodness for Lemmy & Dawson.
