Mine is originally using Baconreader while in the dorm community bathroom doing a deuce and seeing a mention of Sync. Installed and instantly became a user. Later on I had a problem with the app because I was running beta Android. Reached out to the dev and after a few fix attempts an update was posted that fixed the issue. To get that kind of support is rare and is why I have continued to stand by Sync all these years.

I used Boost for Reddit since my migration from iOS to Android (I might have checked others like Now, Relay and RIF, but don't remember entirely) for years, but you know how some AOSP roms and MIUI handle badly the RAM management, so even when I loved Boost it became tiring to keep losing content (and for some reason the app initial load was way slow, even slower than official Reddit app) because I opened Telegram or Discord.

That's why after all those years I decided to check again the Android apps, I mean, I'm talking about A10 to A13, so Material You was a thing now, and I didn't need to look further because Sync catched my attention right away... Which seems interesting because seems that I got it after a big UI change that seems like not everyone liked 😅

Needless to say Sync to this date handles amazing in the background, and I don't know why, that's like the best feature nobody talks about of it!
