I'm new to Lemmy and I am using Sync for Lemmy but so far none of my comments are showing up. I'm attempting to comment from my browser this time and I hope it works.

Edit: my comments seem to be showing in browser but not via Sync for Lemmy. Can someone recommend different Lemmy app?

Edit: you guys are great, I uninstalled and restarted and now my comments are showing up along with all your replies that just popped up at once!

You can 100% comment from Sync.

Why have you posted a blank comment?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

I use Jerboa. It does crash for me on ocassion though.

[–] regex1883 4 points 11 months ago

No issues with sync. Using right now

[–] Smurfe 4 points 11 months ago

I'm trying Sync right now and it works ok for me. I find Connect and Voyager the best Lemmy apps right now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Connect would be my recommendation, surprised I haven't seen it mentioned here. It works well, and is pretty close to what the Reddit apps felt like

Jebora is aight, but lacks polish. I don't think yo ucan comment from sync yet... I got a "feature coming soon" or something when I did. I think this might also work on infinity for lemmy.

Edit: You can't post links to communities with sync yet

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago (3 children)

I don't know why people like you and me initially think it's spelled "Jeb-ora" when it's actually "Jer-boa"

[–] Meptastik 6 points 11 months ago (2 children)

lol I've been calling it Jer-oba. I don't know how I got here, I can't even read. 😮‍💨

Haha 🤣 same

[–] Chickenstalker 3 points 11 months ago

Did you know the Jerboa is the same creature that Muaddib is named after? Qul-wahad!

[–] cyberpunk007 2 points 11 months ago

😂 my bad... It's a weird name

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Just commented this from sync

[–] cyberpunk007 1 points 11 months ago

Edited my parent comment

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

What he obviously meant, but phrased incorrectly: you can't create new posts from Sync. You should be able to comment on existing posts, though (doing it right now)

[–] sunnyxiongster 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I also cant comment from sync. It shows error.

[–] ljdawson 2 points 11 months ago

What does it say?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Sync is generally working for me, but I find it depends on server. Lemmy.world seems to withhold my posts.

[–] Notorious_handholder 2 points 11 months ago

I was having the same issues you are with posts being seen on browser side but I couldn't see my posts in either connect or sync.

They showed up later on tho and people were voting and responding to them in meantime. So I think it's probably just a server or api issue and not app related since for me at least the issue was consistent across apps

[–] SageWaterDragon 1 points 11 months ago

My comments are appearing, but I usually have to refresh the post. I hope it's something that jldawson can fix on the app's side.

[–] MdRuckus 1 points 11 months ago

Voyager is exactly like Apollo for reddit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Liftoff probably looks most similar to Sync
