I don’t know if this is just a placebo effect, but it feels like there’s a lot more socialization and faster upvotes in the past hour Sync was released.

    I use liftoff now. Is sync an improvement? I find switching between instances to be a bit clunky and having accounts with different instances leads to lots of repeating posts.

      Probably depends on what you’re familiar with. I used Sync for Reddit for years, so I’m right at home with the Sync for Lemmy app now.

      Liftoff is almost as good if you don’t want all the extra options and features. :)

      I’ve been trying a bunch of different apps. Sync can’t post comments yet so haven’t tried that. But imo between liftoff and connect I like connect more.

        Sync requires a subscription.

        *if you don’t want ads.

        Also it doesn’t look like ads are live yet

        They’re live now

        *for now.

        For now, your choice is ads or subscription. We’re still in beta mode though, and the dev has already said there will be a one-time fee pro version soon. So just chill.
