Hey! This post is not specifically related to the lemmy.world instance. From now on, posts such as these will be removed, in order for the community to stay on topic. However, as this is a highly upvoted post, I’ll just lock it for now.
Don’t be sad it’s gone, be happy that it happened :)
Quoting from Morrowind: Maybe young folks like you should try some new ideas. I don’t know. Could be messy. But change is never pretty.
We might miss some things from Reddit but the platform wasn’t getting any better. It’s an opportunity for a change that could be for the better.
Deleted my account, deleted the app! My thumb keeps looking for it on my phone, though. Poor little thumb, probably misses his old simpsons shitposts
The thumb thing is real. It’s like muscle memory every time I unlock my phone.
Sync is/was a fantastic app. One of the best designed and functioning Android apps I’ve used. Damn shame.
The Sync dev has stated that Sync for Lemmy might become a thing one day, so there’s good news on that front.
You mean we don’t have simpson shitposting here? https://frinkiac.com/video/S05E03/QF76_L_CplCQuXur7Rqpj-nesvU=.gif
RiF golden platinum for me.
But the dev of RiF says he intends to make a Lemmy is Fun app once RiF shuts down, so at least it’s not a bad thing after all.
I think this is what Lemmy and other Fediverse sites need - a really good mobile app. once that happens, I think Lemmy, kbin, etc will start really attracting users.
It got much better with the two recent updates. Images still sometimes spaz out when you scroll, and for whatever reason searching for communities doesn’t seem to work right. But for reading, commenting, etc it’s totally usable.
Add Sync for Reddit to that list :(
Jerboa is a nice replacement for now, but I love the way sync was set up. That said, with time Jerboa could become feature rich. And options is key!
