        I’m still using it. Now, some activity would be very much appreciated. Or, if there is no new development, the source code. But it’s still the app I prefer to use.

      It has been great and is the UI that I want to use however it has slowly been slipping downhill over the last year and a half. That last update from this week has fucked more things than it fixed and introduced new issues as well.

      I want it to be great. I want it to work properly but the dev is barely active popping in every 6 months or so to drop an update that might make it better but probably make it worse. It was a better app experience 18 months ago, that’s for sure.

      I’ve moved over to trying Voyager because of all this and it is the closest to connect I can find so far.

    Still using Sync here, what exactly am I missing out on? Tried voyager years ago but coming from Reddit and using Sync for that, it was a pretty natural jump.

      It hasn’t been updated in quite awhile, and I have heard some Lemmy features are still broken - I think some types of inline images and markdown mainly, and some upcoming api changes may break it completely in the nearish future.

      I was in the same boat; I’ve been using sync for years. Recently, I’ve definitely noticed issues with certain instances and comment sections. Search was also completely broken. According to what I’ve read, it appears to be a version mismatch issue. Since sync hasn’t been updated in a year, I’ve cancelled my subscription and moved over to Summit.

    Thunder is my preferred client, with jerboa being second

    Honestly thunder is perfect aside from being a tad slow to load sometimes. And it seems to have a little more tendency to experience network issues, but the UI is everything I could ask for

    Jerboa might be my favorite if it showed full size link previews since I usually engage visually before I engage with text

      Yeah, one of the big fears with moving to a small platform like Lemmy was that the apps wouldn’t be nearly as good the Reddit ones, but Thunder is just genuinely fantastic.

    I notice there are only 5 gravestones because Sync is just mysteriously vanished, possibly not dead

        I’m using Sync now. I think we’re used to the occasional hibernation.
