Following recommendations from the comments I implemented material you with dynamic colors and pushed content to the beginning and I really liked the result

The idea is to keep accounts synced using an background service btw

I'll keep improving it and I aim to release a build for those who want to test, it's FOSS

Available at Lemmy Handshake

[–] Scotty_Trees 5 points 2 years ago

Flutter eh? Does that mean you’re using Ubuntu to develop this? If so, far out man 👍

[–] naticus 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Great idea, I plan to give it a try soon! One suggestion though is you need to figure out a better name since Sync for Lemmy is a well known app already and this will just confuse people.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (8 children)

Thanks for the suggestion, any name ideas?

[–] Rouxibeau 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Lemmy get it together.
Lemmy fix that.
Lemmy syncronize.
Lemmy help.
Lemmy shake hands.
Handshake for Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Really liked the Lemmy synchronize and handshake ones, might consider changing the name before release

[–] hadek 4 points 2 years ago

Lemmy handshake is catchy, i'd give it a vote.

Eager to try it out.

[–] Rouxibeau 3 points 2 years ago

Lemmy know if you do ✌

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Good cause those two are my favorites as well. :D

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago

Technically Twitter has recently become available lol.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Slice, since a group of lemmings is called a slice for some reason lmao

[–] MedicPigBabySaver 2 points 2 years ago

I like it. Good connection and that app is offering "slices" of info to the data.

Sync for Lemmy..

[–] naticus 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What about something like Lemmy FediSync? Or FediMigrate?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

I've changed it to Lemmy Handshake

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Let me sync... LetMeSync... LemmeSync... LemmySync...

It syncs Lemmy instances, so, naturally:

Sync for Lemmy

Nice work!

Unfortunately it seems a lot of users need apps like this now, since the Lemmy network is heavily fragmented already.

That's both a plus and a minus of the technology.

Would be nice with some visual map that shows which instance talks to which other instance, blocked communities, and so on.

For example, beehaw doesn't federate with Lemmy.world. How will the users know this if they are new?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Great idea but for now I'll just log to the user what couldn't be synced, implementing something like this would be hard for now, maybe a future improvement

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah it's a big project for sure.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Why would I want to sync accounts across instances? Isn't my content automatically federated?

[–] [email protected] 55 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The ideia isn't to sync the posts and comments, it's to sync subscribed communities, banned users/communities and saved content

Things that aren't federated

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Its really useful. Thank you

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Finally a way to keep my list of stupid celeb simping communities from clogging my feed. No idea why I get posts from lemmynsfw anyways.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

It's useful if an instance goes down (temporarily or not)

[–] madcaesar 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It's not available yet, but you can follow the project here Lemmy Handshake

[–] alphacyberranger 6 points 2 years ago

Looking forward to it

... sincronize is to synchronize what satanize is to sanitize ...

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

Read between the lines. He's building an app and you here correcting words. God bless you!

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Actually I'm not a native speaker and really like when people correct my mistakes, but thanks for defending me

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Always there for you bro. You're doing great, love your app, please keep building it. Thank you so much.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Sounds great

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I can’t wait this app to come!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Sync page looking like this for now

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago
