Didn’t see this on the community yet
Our Laurence, who art on Lemmy, Hallowed be thy app.
Thy Sync be done, thy beta come, On Lemmy, as it was on Reddit.
Give us this day, our daily build, And forgive us our non-Sync apps.
As we forgive those who Revanced without us.
Lead us not into new Reddit, But deliver us from spez.
Edit: Thanks, good idea. However I liked my abruptness at the end, it makes you think.
This is amazing but I think “u/spez” would make it read in the right cadence.
I don’t think u/spez knows how to read
You are 100% correct but I just meant u/spez and evil have the same number of syllables
/s :P
(Spez has clearly demonstrated his inability to read, just saying that I got what you were saying haha)
“Hallowed”
“Hollowed” means there is nothing inside
Don’t you dare go hollow!
Holy shit I’m dying of laughter 😭
Considering the API/experience is quite different (with its own nuances) in the fediverse, the idea to create an app from scratch was a good idea. Copying and pasting UI code and framework from Sync aside. Especially when the platform is being improved to handle some meaningful load/traffic right now and is clearly needing further development - he’s got time. We are already week 4 of a 3-6 week estimate, and he’s teasing us with some very nice screenshots already. Reddit gave very short notice of the API changes, and they then carried them out. Ultimate subscribers leaving in droves, sadly. Even with the choice he was just making about usernames, it’s clear to me that he’s been putting a lot of attention to detail in the first appearance of Sync for Lemmy. Everything is important when it comes to being a class leader, there is nothing more important than setting the example that others follow or copy. When other developers come into your Lemmy community and try to snipe users so blatently as what has happened - is it any wonder he’s wanting perfection!
It’s about sending a message. He’s clearly wanting to show these other android developer noobs how it’s done.
This looks great. Nothing against Jerboa, but as a user of Sync for 11 years, I look forward to purchasing Sync for Lemmy!
Agreed. But I have been enjoying trying out some different Lemmy apps. Liftoff is pretty good! But there’s nothing yet that sway me from Sync.
Jerboa does weird things with my keyboard.
Damn, that looks so good, like a stock Android app.
This looks great. Nothing against Jerboa, but as a user of Sync for over 11 years, I look forward to purchasing Sync for Lemmy!
It looks just list the original version. Good that everything seems to be going smoothly
Connect is good, don’t get me wrong, but I want this badly
Is there a download available yet for others to try?
Not yet! But it seems to be very close now. You can sign up for the app by following links at our pinned post, or from the sidebar. :)
I love sync but…who doesn’t use darkmode? That just burned my retinas.
I like using light mode during the day and dark mode at night.
It was said that it will have dark mode as well.
Yeah of course, just meant that someone didn’t use it :)
Yeah it’s weird seeing sync in light mode
I hope there’s an option to see the upvotes as well as downvotes rather than just the total. That’s one thing I’ve liked about Jerboa so far that other apps aren’t doing.
Material You! Yes!
Oh, you tease!
Anyone else try to upvote in the screenshot?
Please, I can only get so erect.
Come on, we all know the situation with 3rd party apps and NSFW content, you don’t have to rub us off.
Throbs in anticipation
Is there room for another here?
I’m doing my part!
Am I the only one on mobile that tapped the comment button in the screenshot at least once? Sync had me HOOKED.
