Nice! Really hoping BaconReader follows suit soon as well πŸ‘πŸ»

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

Can't wait. Boost is my most used app on Android and this will be great.

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

Awesome pawsome

[–] tvbusy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I saw that "subreddit" was changed to "communties" in the app recently so I was quite certain that a version for Lemmy is being at least experimented with.

[–] mintiefresh@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

I'm a sync guy but this news has me so excited. I will try Boost for Lemmy when it comes out and likely support it anyways.

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

I was so happy when I found this out. I hope Lemmy gets the support.

[–] const_void@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Great news! Love seeing the Lemmyverse continue to expand!

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

I am really excited for this one . Always loved boost .

[–] techgearwhips@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (4 children)

This is good news. Boost was my favorite until I switched to infinity.

[–] Delusion6903@discuss.online 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Contains ads? Data shared with third parties? Not feeling it.

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

The paid version doesn't have ads. But yes I switched to infinity because it was FOSS. I also liked the ux better.

we're up for a treat folks!!

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

Thank you Ruben!

It seems like the future for Lemmy is pretty bright with all these amazing apps switching over.

It's a shame that Christian decided to not develop Apollo for Lemmy for the time being. I bet that would also convince a fair share of users to abandon ship.

[–] DiaryOfJayne@vlemmy.net 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Itβ€˜ll be great to see that icon on my screen again! This is amazing!

[–] duckef@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I changed the liftoff icon to the boost icon just to get me through.

[–] o_oli@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Haha I did the same. That muscle memory tapping that icon too hard to shift.

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

I am thrilled, Boost has been the best Reddit experience for me since I stopped loving Bsconreader. I don't even remember what my problem with it was, I think it was crashing or.... something, haha.

Boost ended up being a UI I preferred significantly, and I never looked back! This is gonna be FANTASTIC, where do I throw my money?!

[–] tstd0@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Hell yeah, another great app joining the migration. Can't wait to get my hands on it. Keep up the great work.

[–] Mihuy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

This is amazing! I can't wait for this to get released + Sync!

[–] s0phia@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

NO WAY!!! This is amazing news!!

[–] d4rknusw1ld@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Where Apollo for Lemmy :(

[–] Greznak@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago
[–] dinckelman@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I am incredibly happy to see this. Boost has been my absolutely favorite choice for a very long time

[–] zephyreks@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

I'm so excited for this

Oh mah lord

[–] MonsieurArchi@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago
[–] falconfetus8@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I am super duper excited!

[–] kadu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

lol the downvoted post in one of the screenshots, the dev singled out @zac for absolutely no reason and I love it

[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago (4 children)

"Contains ads" no thank you

[–] jcb2016@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's probably a low one time purchase. Remember it's a top tier third-party app!

Boost has always had ads, it's one time purchase removal

This is so exciting! Boost was my app of choice for the old place. I'm glad to see this here.

[–] Hhhmmm@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Great news! Waiting for Boost and Sync
