Update 5 August: sync gets lifetime subscription feature.

Yes. Really a good news!! Just tested the app. Feels a lil laggy. Waiting for it to smoothen more before i make the purchase. 🌻?

      I have to agree. Liftoff isn’t quite RiF level of cozy yet, but it’s getting there for me. I haven’t used Thunder in about two weeks, tried signing on today and all of my Instance data was missing. Maybe it was the result of the update, I dunno, but that kinda soured me on it a little

      Pretty sure it’ll be!! Tho still under development and it had noticable issues last time i tried. Soon will switch to it as soon as it becomes stable.

      Yeah and now that it is not there, It’s really heartbreaking and has completely swayed me away from using sync. I do mind subscription.

    I’d pay a one time $10 or something, but the existing apps are pretty great. Thunder and voyager are the two I keep going back to

      Yeah. Subscription model is not quite what i expected from Sync for full features. Voyager too is amazing and is continuously improving and adding features!!

    I took it for a test ride and it’s not bad, but not as polished, slick, or as customizable as Sync.

    What’s the context to this? Are sync and thunder things that are used with Lemmy?

    Prefer sync but to each their own. Just glad we have so many choices.
