Hi everyone, first comment on here. Going to try to get an MVP out within the next 3-6 weeks.
I'll be posting updates on discord:
Cheers, Ljdawson
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!
MVP
Most Valuable Program?
Minimum viable product
MVP! MVP! MVP!
Minimum Viable Product, if anyone wants to know the answer.
Thought I agree on most valuable
This is awesome! Thank you!
The whole fediverse needs some serious UX work.
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.
i will follow the sync app to the ends of the earth
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!
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.
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
I will pick this up day 1! Been using sync for years and have always come back to it.
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.
As a iOS user I really hope Apollo will follow!
Yep, i'm permanently on Lemmy with this news.
As a long time Sync user this made my day!
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!
Same!
I already bought Sync for Reddit twice. Removing ads from the free version the first time (it was still called Reddit Sync back then) and then again for the 'ad code not even included' pro version earlier this year. Guess I'll be buying Sync a third time.
Or more specifically, Google will be buying it for me with the cash they paid for my data.
This is genuinely exciting news.
Likely a game changer that has be giving Lemmy a try. Jerboa isn't too terrible either.
I agree. Been using Jerboa as well and it's nice and usable enough as a placeholder, but I'll be watching the Sync development. Can't wait!
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.
Sync is an absolutely wonderful app. I look forward to his contunued dev work
So many good news. Glad these developers are also trying out other options since Reddit has started shitting itself.
I moved to Sync when alien blue was bought by reddit, this is such exciting news!! Woo!
As a recent lemmy convert from reddit who exclusively used Sync, this made my day. Thanks for the news.
That's why I came here today! Like a Phoenix rising from Sync for Reddit's ashes Sync for Lemmy will be born! Nice to see you all my fellow converts. Today is my new cake day!
Great news!! I would rather Infinity for Lemmy, but it's a great step in the right direction to make a best community. Althought Infinity is open source. If I were programmer I will do Infinity for Lemmy. But I need time before know how to program.
As a Sync user since 2017, this is amazing news!
This will really legitimize and mainstream the platform!
I am a Boost for Reddit User, but have seen Sync and it is well designed. Jerboa is cool but it is not there yet. The experience the dev from Sync brings to Lemmy will be amazing.
Not asking for features but would be good if kbin is included with it. I still don't really understand the difference with Lemmy but it's cool.
this is amazing!! sync for reddit is such a gorgeous app i was sad to leave it behind
This is HUGE! I was really missing Sync.
Now THIS is good news!
This has made my day! Sync for Reddit is amazing.
Great. I hope other devs will follow (dbrady if you're reading this). I hope he ditches reddit's forced naming scheme. Lemmy Sync.
My favorite Reddit app for several years now. Great news.
This is great news. If you aren't familiar the dev is very committed, hard working and responsive. Sync was packed with features and customization.
I will purchase Sync Pro for lemmy when it comes out.
It's been an outstanding app for me on the old site, and I look forward to firing it up again in a much better online environment.
thats amazing news!
Im enjoying Jebora, but happy to switch to something which throws less errors.
