It’s sad cause I always loved sync for reddit. Summit is the closest to sync I could find, even if it isn’t perfect, the dev is at least, you know, around, and they consider requests pretty readily. Just can’t wait till they enable the option to turn off the FAB.

You give them too much credit.

I’ve been using calibre with my kobo for years. There’s a remote server you can set up, but I just haven’t been bothered to set it up since my kobo has about 100 books I haven’t read yet.

Cadby, from the consulate right? This is so weird!

And better dev support. I don’t think the guy that’s been running sync has done anything in like a year. Just copy/pasted the UX from reddit sync into lemmy sync.

I think a couple apps restarted on Lemmy around the same time Sync came out. I know boost showed up, and I’ve seen a bunch of newly released app announcement threads in the last week.

Probably a combination of new and better apps. I know I basically just lurked until sync came out. It just feels familiar, and all the features I want are just here. The only thing I think I want, is to see how many down votes are on posts, but it’s literally the only thing I can think of.

Sync isn’t down, Lemmy.world is receiving heavier than normal traffic, because of sync. If you switch to a different instance, you don’t get the warning popup.

Sync for Reddit users are now getting damn near the same exact experience here, that they were on reddit. Same UI we’ve been used to for years, and Lemmy content is easier to navigate through, and it opens you up to browse the instances version of r/all instead of just what you’re subscribed to.

The search is nice too, because the couple things I looked for as far as ‘subs’ go, I’ve found multiples across different instances, each with a different variety of content.

It’s fine to dismiss the idea, because on reddit you could see the same user post the exact same article on a dozen relevant subs. If you try to hide them, which one do you hide?

It’s a stupid idea, akin to wanting to ban all reposts.

Oh my God this is great. I’ve hated the other Lemmy apps. It feels so much more natural.

I think there are still some subs that are private, and I know a couple went NSFW and a bunch are getting harassed by admins to reopen or remove the NSFW tag.

My friend told me the cyberpunk sub couldn’t reply to the email they got telling them to turn off the NSFW tag. Because nearly full on sex scenes, decapitation, huge hogs with giant titties is absolutely SFW.
