Same here. Very happy with Sync. Not sure what I'm missing.
I wouldn't say it offers anything grand to make you switch. It's just another flavor of ui that many people, like myself, personally enjoy.
Though if I were asked to pick something specific, it would be the customizability. It does have fewer options compared to the reddit version, but they will likely be added in the future.
The customizability is also why I use sync. Do you have experience with both? Which is better?
I bought and used both for Reddit... I used Sync for longer and liked it better but of all the Android clients I ever used Boost was definitely the closest 2nd for me.
How about the fact that Boost doesn't rip you off with ridiculously outrageous pricing to remove ads?
That's pretty high on my priority list.
As a user of Blokada, the ads are thankfully not a problem. That'd be a real strike against Sync for normal users though.
