The Connect UI is alright in my opinion, but Sync is definitely more polished. That makes sense though, Sync has been around significantly longer and thus has seen a lot more improvement.
It's so convenient. It's the type of feature you love to have but don't automatically think to request.
Removing ads is $20, the lifetime cloud subscription is $99. $99 is definitely a high price tag, but I suppose if you plan to use this app for the next decade it may well be worth it.
I like swiping gestures, it has a really nice UI, and I don't mind unintrusive ads in otherwise free software.
Funnily enough, Sync seems to load communities from URLs on my local instance just fine. I suppose features like that are the best part of using a well-built third-party app.
In my experience, CLIs are easier to design but harder to design well. Because of that, when I find a good CLI tool it runs as smooth as silk, but I would easily take a decent GUI over a shitty or rushed CLI.
Completely unsurprising. When you believe you are punishing your enemies with divine retribution any amount of cruelty is acceptable, and thus we get posts like this. Thanks GOP for giving us these people.
Ah, it looks so comfy!
It's possible that people were idling their accounts while waiting for Sync to come out, and are using the platform more now that it has.
Yes, currently Sync is exclusive to Android.
Probably posted from another app. For example, I posted my Sync bug report using Connect.
He said in another comment in this chain he's submitted the update with the one-time ad removal and is just waiting for approval.
Technically true. I doubt planes stop for that stop sign after all.
I suppose there are worse ways to go. Have fun!
I'm also a former Boost user, bit this a really nice app. I may switch to Boost when it comes out, but I will admit I've grown attached to gesture controls.
Doesn't Bluestacks support the Google play store for installing apps?
I'm using Sync right now, it's working great. The level of polish is evident and much higher than the other currently available Lemmy apps.
Something like that, or potentially some jerk with a knack for technology who's decided to use their abilities to be an ass.
The comments still seem to be generating, so I'm able to see them. Great work on your instance @ruud@lemmy.world, you're handling your tenure as Lemmy's largest instance extremely well!
