I am so glad Ruben decided to port Boost to Lemmy. Hopefully it will be released soon.

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

Wait what, I thought he wasn't doing it, saying he was going to do smaller apps. I guess this is what he meant by "smaller apps"? xD

Nice, can't wait for it.

[–] Fidelfc 2 points 2 years ago

My favorite Reddit client, I was bummed when I moved to IOS and found that I I can’t have boost. I don’t think he’ll create an iOS app, but if you’re on android, please give this app a try, it’s amazing.

Oh boi my favorite app coming to Lemmy can't wait!

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

This is the best news I've had in the last few days.

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

Ludicrously happy - he had said he was going to be working on smaller apps. Boost is why I have used reddit so much these past years - as of right now it's still online, but I suspect withing a few hours it will no longer function.

[–] Widowmaker_Best_Girl 2 points 2 years ago

Exciting news! Loved boost for Reddit, will definitely use it for Lemmy!

[–] rr7 2 points 2 years ago

Oooh!! 🔥🔥💯👑

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

Long time Boost user here. I'd gladly pay again for this.

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

LETS FUCKING GOO!!!! I loved boost

[–] Marble_turret 2 points 2 years ago

This is really good news!

[–] ext23 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

This makes me irrationally happy.

[–] ynthrepic 2 points 2 years ago

This is amazing news. Can't wait!

[–] Ghostface21 2 points 2 years ago

God I love to see this. What gifts, all these apps! I've used 4 so far and they all rock. I can't make up my mind.

[–] felixculpa 2 points 2 years ago

hell yeah! great news

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

I've been kind of expecting this move from a community person like Mr. Mayayo. I'm going to launch the rocket in a heart beat !

[–] WhoRoger 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's also not a FOSS app, is it

[–] SchmallChild 2 points 2 years ago

Not a FOSS app.

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

Yo boost was the shit when so was on android. I really hope Apollo does the same thing.

hey, that was my go-to app! im stoked

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

This great news.

I paid for both Boost and Sync as I kept filtering between the two, for me Sync had an edge but don't ask me why, because even I dont really know.

Just for me they were the best two android apps so to them both coming to Lemmy is great news.
