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

For those wondering, there’s an app for Kbin in the works called Artemis.

When I search for it in the kbin subreddit, it looks like the post is deleted. Do you have a link? Very interested

I don't see any links to this thread, perhaps someone could link it? And if so, please be vocal about your support.

Paid for SYNC pro lifetime. Would ABSOLUTELY pay again.

Not a fan of Sync, but if they'd also support kbin I'd probably still use it due to the lack of any alternatives.

Honestly out of all the android apps sync was the best one. I tried Boost, RedditIsFun,koala and a bunch more but sync had the best extra features and look.

Wow that would be amazing. I loved Sync. I just hope a toxic community doesn't drive him away again.

Is Lemmy toxic? I feel like all its shortcomings it’s far from toxic.

[–] Stovetop@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

The Sync community turned toxic when the dev implemented an updated UI a couple years ago. The new UI was beautiful and much more in line with the evolving visual design of Android, but the average user hates change. The dev version spent a while on the new UI while it was being refined, but the free/pro version was not upgraded until I want to say probably a year or more later, the developer having gone radio silent for a while under all the criticism.
