It’s not like Sync doesn’t work without customization. But I’m happy we spread over different apps and not all flock to the same. Every app has their issues :)
Counterpoint: the swipe viewing mode (great for picture-heavy communities), which can be set as a default viewing mode for subreddits in Boost, is treated as a weird ginger stepchild in Sync and you have to manually select it every time. It also ignores options like ‘don’t start videos with sound’ for Reasons as well. Very irritating and odd.
I’ve tried Jerboa, Connect, and Sync, Connect is the one I like the most, Sync is also good, but just not as nice to use.
The strength with Sync is that you can customize it to be exactly how you want it so it’s different for most everyone who uses it.
True, but Connect is set up pretty much right without changing much at all.

jeroba doesn’t feel like a finished app. im very happy to see boost and sync pop back up and adopt lemmy.
