LFG!
I was wondering why you are "Looking For Group" ๐
Seems like that also goes for "Let's F****ng Go"
Brilliant, my friend. Thank you for your hard work.
I'm going to throw this link here for you to check out. It's a table comparing Mastodon apps which already has a big ecosystem on the Fediverse. Maybe you can find some inspiration. :)

Somebody pls find spez's mail and use it to subscribe ๐คฃ
I genuinly think a good client can skyrocket the number of users. Even if users can just signup and browse all-active
Try Liftoff until Sync is ready - it's much smoother than Jerboa.
Just be mindful of the default 'All' view is literally all of the lemmyverse - via that view you can't interact with instances that you aren't logged on in.
Instead change it to be 'All@lemmy.world' to use it as normal.
Honestly I have mixed results and opinions with both Jerboa and Liftoff... Liftoff, for example, wouldn't even load a GIF that I posted when Jerboa would.
They currently also both randomly crash on me but I think that's most likely related to lemmy.world not being on version 0.18+ yet.
My wallet is already waiting eagerly for a pro version.
In the meantime I can highly recommend Connect for Lemmy. Also a highly motivated dev with an awesome app.
It's really fun to try out all these different apps.
Thank you for this.
I just installed Connect. Soooo much better than Jerboa and the mobile browser. Actually a much closer experience to Sync than I would have thought.
And I am already contributing so much more cause the experience is that much better. Hearty recommendation guys
Sync is really gonna be a game changer in interaction.
+1 for connect. Very easy to set up and looks great.
Yep, am enjoying Connect while I wait for Sync.

I've paid for Sync (I forget how many) years ago and have loved it since. I'm so happy you all are switching over and building a app for Lemmy.
Thanks for all you do!

Can't wait. I'm basically off reddit now cause your app doesn't work anymore. Happily will download when this comes out.

As so many others have said, their app of choice WAS Reddit, and Sync was Reddit for me. There's some good Lemmy apps out there, but my muscle memory misses Sync!

Hell yeah! Sync is the reason I joined the fediverse when I heard you're making an app. Been a loyal user of your reddit apps since the beginning, there is no comparison it was the best! Can't wait to see how this project matures. So far, seems to be much better than other social platforms simply because it's decentralized and all the benefits that brings. Things are looking promising and I, for one, don't miss reddit at all!
I never used a third party app but I'll give this a spin lol.
Sync for Reddit was top notch. The official client felt like a joke app after using Sync. Hopefully the Lemmy version will be the same.

I'm curious how many signups you already got. Your app will skyrocket to the top in seconds once released.
7k
7,001 now that I've seen the sign up.

Signed up for Lemmy just because you're developing an app for it @ljdawson. Can't wait.
"Sync" was the first search term I used in the fediverse!
We all believe in you, u/ljdawson!

Boost4Lemmy already put a placeholder into Google Play store so people can get notified when a first build drops.
Doing the same with Sync4Lemmy would be a good idea...

I'll go wherever Sync goes. It was my favorite mobile client for any social app, regardless of the platform. Lemmy it is!
Anecdotally, I haven't logged in to Reddit in more than a month now. It's refreshing!
This. Sync was so nice to use that I find myself trying to use all the swipe actions sync had in all of the not so good lemmy apps currently available. None of them are as polished as sync was (and hopefully the lemmy version will be).

Can't wait to buy a lifetime license!
Yaaasssss! This is fantastic news! I will definitely pay again for a Sync Lemmy app!
Sync pro user here, I was so bummed hearing it was shutting down. Can't wait for Sync for Lemmy!
I just want to mention that your signup submission endpoint syncapps.us14.list-manage.com is being blocked by Firefox's enhanced tracking protection. If anyone having trouble with signup, try temporarily disabling adblocker or tracking protection.
I was a paid user since the early days. I think Sync has been very generous with its pricing and extra features and would like to see it continue. Wish you the best of luck!
Nice
Nice, subscribed already!
For those having issues getting the email form to:
-
- Show up at all
-
- Submit once/if it is showing up
Disable your ad and tracker blockers for syncapps.io.
iFor me, AdGuard was blocking the form from showing up at all. Then, in Firefox, dev tools showed that the tracker tool was stopping the form from submitting. Once I disabled both things for the site, I was (hopefully) able to get it submitted. I got the "Thanks for signing up" notification on the site, anyway. I'm not sure if I was supposed to receive a confirmation email, so I'm just hopeful it worked.
Death to Reddit sync! All hail lemmy sync!
Signed up!
