Is the Dev for Boost actually active? (self.boostforlemmy)

Been using Sync and love it, but there are bugs and the dev disappears for months at a time. Is Boost regularly maintained or should I just switch to a FOSS app?

It wasn't that long ago that he did a bunch of work to switch from Reddit to Lemmy. So I'm feeling well supported. Though not averse to hearing about other good clients.

IMO: Connect is very similar with a slight edge in functionality.

Left side bar makes it easier to see which instances you have available and if any notifications on any of them.

Inbox clears right away when tapping the double check mark icon.

In Boost the inbox is set to show all messages (read/unread) by default, that's why they are visible all the time. There is an unread filter, but it has to be selected manually. Should I make an option to open inbox in unread mode?

That would be helpful. It's default on Connect.
