I get it. Being a dev is hard. Sometimes you need a break.

However it takes a few seconds for LJ to pop in and say "all is well everyone I'll be back soon!" Like, Mr. Dawson, just copy and paste that sentence and everything would be fine.

I'm irritated because the man is selling a relatively expensive app that even has a $100 purchase option and disappeared for months on end with complete silence. I think if you're selling an app with these kind of price points it's important to reassure your community it's not abandoned by simply acknowledging your existence once a month.

It's especially important on the fediverse where projects are abandoned frequently with little fanfare. The difference being most of these projects are donated time without a ticket price. Can we PLEASE get something here, LJ? Especially for us $100 patrons as to not feel duped? Even if you just say, "yeah I'm done, sorry" I'd appreciate it. As it stands Sync has broken features and bugs galore so I've already moved on to Boost, but I'd be very happy to hear things will either be A) fixed soon or B) abandoned so I can just uninstall sync from my phone.

Thank you.

Personally I am missing Scaled sort, a new sorting options for instances on 0.19 that I don't think Sync has but some other apps like Thunder and Voyager do. But other than that, I still like Sync.

I'm using sync with scaled sort right now, it works perfectly

Oh weird. Should I reinstall my app or something?

As far as I'm aware, it works if you set it as your default sort order through the Web for your account, but if you change it in app you have to force close and reopen to reset it back to the default from the web/API.
