Sync Ultra is a very reasonable $17 a YEAR. YouTube Premium is reaching that per MONTH. I have sync downloaded and it was the first thing I did. Thanks lj for the beautiful app.

[EDIT: That was a poor comparison, as pointed out in the comments. Leaving it for discussion sake.

There are many counterpoints and actually good discussion happening down below. Even if you don’t agree, thanks for showing me a different perspective!

If you want to support Sync, make sure to support the Lemmy Devs and your instance holders as well!

        For starters it’s smoother on my phone. I don’t think connect supports a faster refresh rate. You can set individual default sort for basically any feed or community. I can have the home feed set for new and all feed set for hot. Way more and I mean WAY MORE customization options. Better working gestures for liking or disliking or bookmarking. Easier to access subscribed communities. Also if you tap on the search bar you’ll see commonly browsed communities. For example I check memes but I don’t want them on my home feed so I just go to the community. And that’s just stuff off the top of my head. I would find more if I installed connect again to do a side by side. Don’t get me wrong connect is a great app but sync has been polished through the years and it’s shows.
