I like many among you loved sync and am frustrated with the bugs and lack of updates. It seems LJ has all but abandoned the app, so I did some looking around on the business of sync apps Ltd and can see from public records in the UK that he is keeping the business up to date. So it seems he is fine with collecting passive income from ad revenue.
@ljdawson@lemmy.world please just open source this app so the community can fix these bugs.
I myself have moved to thunder, very similar UX, lots of customization, and it’s open source.
I moved to summit and really like it as a sync replacement. The developer is super responsive and consistently updates the app
I’m enjoying Summit as my Sync replacement.
I am also on summit. Only thing I hate is that I set one tap to open content but there is no one tap for videos so they always open inline with half the video off screen then I hit back to exit and it refreshes my view losing my place. Ill get there once I beat this muscle memory.
I’ve just installed thunder.
Pros setup was super easy although it initially said my instance didnt exist then suddenly found it
Cons Long pressing a comment and getting an overlay popup in order to upvote a comment is very annoying
I’ll leave it installed but its not for me right now.
Has anyone found anything else good ?
After testing a lot, I switched to Summit, it’s been great.
I’ll second summit. Been using it for about 6 months or so. The app gets updated regularly and the dev is active.
