Heading to bed but 3142 signups in 7 hours, LFG!

[โ€“] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

LFG!

I was wondering why you are "Looking For Group" ๐Ÿ˜„

Seems like that also goes for "Let's F****ng Go"

[โ€“] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Brilliant, my friend. Thank you for your hard work.

I'm going to throw this link here for you to check out. It's a table comparing Mastodon apps which already has a big ecosystem on the Fediverse. Maybe you can find some inspiration. :)

I genuinly think a good client can skyrocket the number of users. Even if users can just signup and browse all-active

[โ€“] Risk 20 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Try Liftoff until Sync is ready - it's much smoother than Jerboa.

Just be mindful of the default 'All' view is literally all of the lemmyverse - via that view you can't interact with instances that you aren't logged on in.

Instead change it to be '[email protected]' to use it as normal.

My wallet is already waiting eagerly for a pro version.

In the meantime I can highly recommend Connect for Lemmy. Also a highly motivated dev with an awesome app.

It's really fun to try out all these different apps.

[โ€“] Moohamin12 17 points 1 year ago

Thank you for this.

I just installed Connect. Soooo much better than Jerboa and the mobile browser. Actually a much closer experience to Sync than I would have thought.

And I am already contributing so much more cause the experience is that much better. Hearty recommendation guys

Sync is really gonna be a game changer in interaction.

As so many others have said, their app of choice WAS Reddit, and Sync was Reddit for me. There's some good Lemmy apps out there, but my muscle memory misses Sync!

Nothing happens when i press the 'Subscribe' button after writing in my e-mail address. Might be on my side the problem is. Have tried on 2 web browsers on my computer

EDIT: Now i'm subscribed via my smartphone.

[โ€“] alnitak 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For me it says "Thanks for subscribing"

I just want to mention that your signup submission endpoint syncapps.us14.list-manage.com is being blocked by Firefox's enhanced tracking protection. If anyone having trouble with signup, try temporarily disabling adblocker or tracking protection.

Boost4Lemmy already put a placeholder into Google Play store so people can get notified when a first build drops.

Doing the same with Sync4Lemmy would be a good idea...

I've paid for Sync (I forget how many) years ago and have loved it since. I'm so happy you all are switching over and building a app for Lemmy.

Thanks for all you do!

Hell yeah! Sync is the reason I joined the fediverse when I heard you're making an app. Been a loyal user of your reddit apps since the beginning, there is no comparison it was the best! Can't wait to see how this project matures. So far, seems to be much better than other social platforms simply because it's decentralized and all the benefits that brings. Things are looking promising and I, for one, don't miss reddit at all!

[โ€“] thimantha 23 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

Signed up for Lemmy just because you're developing an app for it u/ljdawson. Can't wait.

I'm curious how many signups you already got. Your app will skyrocket to the top in seconds once released.

[โ€“] ljdawson 52 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

7,001 now that I've seen the sign up.

Nice, subscribed already!

[โ€“] jonschwartz 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can't wait. I'm basically off reddit now cause your app doesn't work anymore. Happily will download when this comes out.

Sync pro user here, I was so bummed hearing it was shutting down. Can't wait for Sync for Lemmy!

[โ€“] CannaVet 17 points 1 year ago (9 children)

I never used a third party app but I'll give this a spin lol.

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sync for Reddit was top notch. The official client felt like a joke app after using Sync. Hopefully the Lemmy version will be the same.

This is exciting! I love how a push can spark innovation like this!

[โ€“] GullibleOyster 16 points 1 year ago

Absolutely buying the pro version the second it's available, Sync WAS reddit for me for the last 11 years.

[โ€“] ruud 16 points 1 year ago
[โ€“] pacoboyd 16 points 1 year ago

What a trip! I was originally sad because I just uninstalled Sync for Reddit today only to join Lemmy and find out my favorite client is coming to Lemmy! Thanks so much!

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

I used Sync Pro for years. So glad they are coming to lemmy. It was the best reddit app in a group with solid contenders like baconreader and boost.

Awesome news, good luck with the work!

[โ€“] LoFi 13 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I liked kbin more than Lemmy but I like sync more than anything. I guess Lemmy is my main go to now. GL and thank you.
