I didn't particularly like any of the apps for Lemmy, while they all offered some of the features I wanted, none offered all in a single package.
That, coupled with the clunkyness and bugs that come along with the territory of new developers building something for the first time (which is not a knock against them), I just didn't really enjoy trying to use Lemmy.
I'm mainly waiting for Boost, but I like to try the new Lemmy apps hoping to find a great one, and Sync is certainly the best so far, with a robust feature and settings set that does everything I need it to.
So that's why I'm spending a little more time here now, I guess! Lemmy is only as good as the app that acts as it's interface after all, and as the apps improve and become less of a chore to use, so will user retention.
I don't know about activity and I notice lemmy.world is often down andnit wasn't due to the apps. But sync is definitely cleaner and easy to use.
I just tried to use reddit via third party app, then got reminded that it's over. Decided to check out whatever still works and found Sync for Lemmy, wondering if it's similar. Turns out, it's even better lol
I'll be honest, I still check reddit on my pc (much less than I used to), but mobile was dead to me. Having a decent app for the fediverse makes it much easier to navigate, especially when the app is familiar.
Stupid question maybe, but If i try to submit a new Post with sync it tells me to try again later? Or have i missed sth?
Heck yeah!
