Wait is there really a sync for Lemmy? The same setup and everything would be amazing. Jerboa is kinda similar but still jank.

It's a proprietary app, so not really. It's better to support apps like Jerboa instead, which are Libre Software.

Does Dawson have any lemmy, kbin, mastodon connections we can link to?

I want to connect with his account without reddit and give through patreon or any fundraising he is doing .... I dumped reddit but I had been using sync for years and I paid for the lifetime subscription just before going off .... after what he did for us for years, I'm more than willing to give funding to him for his work

[–] burgersc12@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

The link in his comment where the Sync Dev says he will have a useable product in 3-6 weeks?

r/syncforlemmy on reddit

This would be a dream come true, I'll even patreon or whatever

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

It's been officially announced as in development! And he does have a patreon btw.

Sync pro is the app I used the last few years and it was pretty amazing.

I'm going to buy the pro version immediately when it gets out!

You love to see it!

We found our champion!

Are they interested in opening their own instance or will it just be a client? I mean, they could...

[–] amphy@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

if it's anything like sync for reddit was (and I imagine it will be!), it'll be a client only

[–] sotuvieres@lemmy.pt 1 points 1 year ago

Do you think it would be a good idea, though? It could be an easy entry point for old syncforreddit users to the fediverse

[–] Casmael@geddit.social 3 points 1 year ago

I approve this meme

[–] zerozaku@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Let that sync in

LIF, LAF LOF?

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

IMO this is the move all client reddit apps should do, I know this is not an easy transition and probably not worth the time of all the devs, but that would be a great hit for reddit whether they like to admit it or not.

[–] samsy@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately, my favorite app "infinity" goes to a subscription model, like reddit premium. The Dev said he doesn't want to build a Lemmy app because he doesn't use Lemmy.

[–] rei@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I hope to got there will be a lemmy is fun
