I've had enough of the text editing issue, where when you press backspace it highlights the space before the word and ends up deleting it. The developer passes off responsibility for this to the engine they use and seems to have no intention of addressing it.

What are the pros and cons of the other Android apps? I'm only considering ones on F-Droid, not the Play Store, so that rules out Summit and Boost. Ones I have available are:

  • Thunder (IzzyOnDroid)
  • Interstellar (IzzyOnDroid)
  • Voyager
  • Eternity
  • muffed (IzzyOnDroid)
  • Combustible

I understand you prefer f-droid, I'm also an old FOSS user, but I used Sync for reddit for like 13 years and bought the "no ads" version of Sync for lemmy in the first hour it came out too... I only used Jerboa in the beginning for a couple of months.

I can't get anything else to look and feel as nice as Sync, either. It's even worth spoiler tags not always working.

Using a closed-source app to browse an open-source, decentralized site is ridiculous for me.

Yeah I never really liked Sync on reddit, I went for Relay as its UI suited my workflow. However in hindsight Relay was dodgy as even the paid app included trackers.
