New subreddit talking about it here. I’m assuming it will eventually be a Lemmy community
Wow, tried to view it on my mobile and just got a pop up from reddit saying it’s unreviewed content and I should be careful, ONLY giving me the options either to leave or download the official reddit app to view it.
What a fucking shit show.
Really hope Relay does the same
Lol I clicked the link and reddit showed
This community has not been reviewed and might contain content inappropriate for certain viewers. View in the Reddit app to continue.
With the only two options being
continue in the app
ortake me home
If you edit the URL and remove everything before reddit.com and the change it to old.reddit.com you can view it without the app
Yup. Same here.
That’s hilarious!
I can’t follow this logic of Reddit’s. Ohh, a community hasn’t been reviewed to ensure it’s safe? Oh, a community is NSFW? Gee golly, if you’re on a mobile phone you’ll have to use our app to look at it! We can’t have that open to the internet (unless you’re on desktop then you’re all good, until we make an official desktop app)
It’s just their excuse to make you use their shitty app
lol:
I’m genuinely excited though. I’ve been a long time sync user, and I’d love to see similar features available for Lemmy!
like if the app is serving different content than the browser…
Just WOW! I’m using SyncPro for 9+ years, I’ll support this app for sure!!!

This is the new community on Lemmy
Edit of course it’s a lemmy.world community. Sorry guys, I’m not on the beehaw instance so I see both.
Mlem is a good beginning, but I hope for an Apollo-level quality app for Lemmy. It’ll come, in time. And perhaps SyncForLemmy will be just that!
That is our goal with Mlem. And trust me, our team is working, as absolutely fast as we can! Keep in mind, though, we’re starting from scratch. 😁
There’s also Memmy. https://testflight.apple.com/join/6jaRU6rD
But it’s also unfinished
I’m testing Memmy and it’s rapidly being amazing, super impressed
Have to assume it’ll be Android-only like Sync for Reddit is/was, right?
There was a Sync for iOS beta at one point… in the dark days before Apollo.
Sweet sweet
Ahhh! Yes!!! Sync is my baby, dripfeeding my mainline supply of reddit for the last several years. Bought the lifetime and don’t regret it. I’m excited!
This is fantastic news. By far the best Reddit app for Android, so I have no doubt the lemmy version will also be fantastic.
Best news all day!
This accelerated my plans to join Lemmy immensely and, et voila. Sync is probably the best software app I have on my phone, simply from a design perspective.
As someone who paid for Sync Pro, I would gladly pay the developer again for a Lemmy app. I just hope /u/ljdawson won’t opt for a “subscription” based app.
100%. The few bucks I spent on Sync Pro were some of the best dollars I’ve spent.
How’s Sync compared to Reddit Is Fun? I’ve never used the former
Sync was my favorite reddit app personally, its not the most similar to RIF though. As far as I understand RIF was more like old.reddit.com. Sync utilizes a lot of modern UI choices but the layout has always been really nice and has had amazing customization
That’s my favorite reddit client. I was hoping someone would do a similar client for Lemmy. This is great news, I’d totally buy a paid version of Sync for Lemmy just to support the developer.
