I’ve been using Sync for a while, but it repeatedly hits an error when I try to submit posts to Beehaw. I have not tried other instances, but I am assuming this issue is specific to Sync. Getting really sick of drafting posts and then having to discard them because the app errors out 🤦

    Boost for Lemmy, one of the most fully fledged apps IMO due to the long dev time put into Boost for Reddit. I also just like that it’s a solo dev from Portugal, don’t care that it’s not FOSS because of this.

    I use Connect. It’s perfect for me and has lots of customization options. I love it! Raccoon is good, too, I just prefer Connect.

    I moved to Connect this week, coming from Liftoff and Thunder. It feels stable in an old tablet. No obvious issues yet.

    Liftoff… but I wouldn’t recommend it.

    It hasn’t been updated in a long while, it has some even larger missing features, and some extra bugs.

    Sync… was actually one of the few to update for some Beehaw-apecific bugs some time ago, you might want to contact the developer with your issues.

    I keep it as a bav6for when Liftoff fails, the draft feature is pretty nice, and it has better search.

      As someone who used Sync exclusively in the reddit days (and uses it here as well), while the dev is generally open to suggestions, he tends to take loooooong breaks, even between betas.

      That means bugfixes and features do eventually come, but sometimes not before someone has moved onto something else with more active development. The funny thing is that when those updates do come, they come in speeding. Like multiple updates per day on some occasions.

    I use connect to browse.

    I tried sync for a little but honestly it’s very underwhelming compared to the reddit version. Nowhere as smooth plus dev is constantly disappearing for months on end.

      interesting you say that, bc i think i’m gonna do the reverse. Sync for browse and Connect for post. Maybe your way is smarter, but i paid for the premium sync so idk. sunk cost fallacy or something lol

    I use Connect.

    I used to use Jerboa but it broke after an update and I switched over, I found it to be a better UX on Connect.

    Started out using Jerboa since that was it and Baconreader didn’t do Lemmy. Now, I’m using Sync and Summit for Beehaw.
