Quote from announcement post:

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 interest and start a general discussion.
Cheers,
Ljdawson

Update #1 from u/ljdawson:

Ok looks like this is happening.
Time for a new subreddit here, more to follow on Lemmy shortly:
https://reddit.com/r/SyncforLemmy

Update #2 from u/ljdawson with an official lemmy community:

I'm stoked as hell, Sync was my reddit app of choice. I bought Pro, Dev, and Ultra throughout the years, just to support Lawrence.

Does Sync have a Lemmy presence? I can't check the subreddit since I don't have the reddit app. ๐Ÿ˜‘

Great to see another app for this part of fediverse.

A humble request, great to see people willing to buy the app to support the developer. The request is to direct a similar support to the developers of lemmy. Every dollar counts.

No shade to anyone who can't donate, those who can please consider this request.

Jerboa is pretty dog crap, so having Sync or Apollo switch to supporting Lemmy, Tildes, Kbin, etc would be great.

[โ€“] Guest_User@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Disagree, Jerboa is actually pretty damn good. Some QOL updates are needed sure, but over all it's good.

Sync is soooo aesthetically pleasing. (I'm a sucker for full MaterialYou implementation) I'd love it if I could continue using it on Lemmy, and would happily pay a second time.

Imagine the smoothness of Sync for Reddit while surfing through the Fediverse.... Not my proudest bonner.

[โ€“] darkkite@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

the backend for lemmy would have to get a lot more reliable, but i get you

Sync was my weapon of choice for Reddit. I will be so happy if ljdawson develops it for Lemmy!

I bought sync for reddit, best money I have ever spent.

I will also buy sync for lemmy

And the author of Boost, my reddit app of choice, appears to be considering too :D

[โ€“] B20bob@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Oh man, if he makes boost for lemmy it will really complete the package for me.

[โ€“] B20bob@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sadly, rmayayo has said that he will not be working on a boost app for lemmy:
