Morning all, As the July deadline approaches I've been considering working on Sync for Lemmy. So I thought I'd start by trying to gauge...

Whether you used Sync or not, we could all use more app competition in this space.

    I hopped around a lot before landing on Baconreader and, later, Sync. I don’t mind doing that again - but Sync might be where I end up staying if he’s quick. That said, I think Jerboa is actually rather nice and similar as it stands (at least for how I used Sync). Many of the things I want are on the Lemmy side as a whole, not necessarily the app side of it.

      Jerboa has some problems it needs to polish (although a lot of issues I have look like they’ve been resolved in PR’s on the github page, ready for next release) but as an open source app for a previously tiny userbase, it does the job. Would switch over to Sync in a heartbeat though, if as you say, he’s quick.

        It doesn’t help that the dev’s time is split between the Lemmy front-end, back-end, and the app.
