Sync for Lemmy - Apps on Google Play

Oh shit, everyone this is big. This is the big one. On reddit, Reddit WAS Sync. It was why I started using reddit in the first place.
Now, Lemmy is Sync. Lets gooo
- Really hope the Rif dev creates something for Lemmy, last I heard he was going to develop for another social network
  
  Yeah, I was sad when I heard they were only making something for Tildes. RiF was my go-to but maybe we'll get lucky and they'll make stuff for Lemmy and Kbin too!
  
  Rif was ok, once I started using sync nothing compared. Boost and another one looked pretty good in the end but they were too similar and I already had the sync unlock so I rode that till the end. Whoever releases first will probably get my $ haha. Unfortunately making good software takes time.
  
  Another social network?
- You'd assume there will be an increase in users once all the former Reddit app developers launch their Lemmy apps.
  Hopefully it's the better former Redditors as opposed to the trolls. 😂
  
  This exactly why I don’t like it when people complain that not enough redditors moved to Lemmy. I actually prefer that most of them don’t.
I love the smack in the face this is to reddit. It's beautiful
- Sadly it's still not gonna change anything since /u/spez is still Elon #2.
When does double secret registration start?
- Ha it's taken a while to get the pre registration setup for a new dev account. Emails will be going out to everyone that signed up previously.
  
  Keep up the great work! You played a large part in sealing the deal on our migration from Reddit. That and Cole offering us this sweet instance :).
I just peed a little.
- Congratulations
- That's one way to get wet
Still waiting for Boost. Love that app.
- So about that...

  Nah, it's still not available. We're still waiting.
Relay when?
Thunder is okay but it doesn't have filters and it won't load more than 10 posts total when I'm logged in.
Oh hey, this community made it into the screenshots on the listing!
Is the registration region locked? Cant find it in the play store (EU)
- I could pre-register from Germany with no issue.
- Ninja edit: Try the link here, worked for me even though it doesn't show up when I search: https://lemmy.world/post/2292776
  
  I had to open it in chrome but it worked in the end
- Worked fine for me in the UK, not sure if Google play counts us as in the EU these days or not
It'd be totes awesome if they also had an F-Droid or GitHub release.
- It was not open source when it was just a Reddit client, at least as long as I remember. I doubt they will change that now.
- Sadly its something he doesnt seem to want.
  
  It's a closed source project
No pro. :( I hate iap unlocks, Google has messed with them before with this dev.
Feck. Feck. Feck.
Okay. I'll be patient. :(
