The developer of Sync for Reddit is working on a Lemmy app - Beehaw

New subreddit talking about it here. I’m assuming it will eventually be a Lemmy community https://reddit.com/r/SyncforLemmy [https://reddit.com/r/SyncforLemmy]

How's Sync compared to Reddit Is Fun? I've never used the former

Not like RIF, more modern space wasting with the 'card' approach. Although I'm not sure about customisation, I just remember trying it and it had the same design 'flaws' every other had until I stumbled into RIF, which was perfect.

Would love a RIF-like app.

Sync was very big on customizability, so it did have the options to make your view incredibly compact as well. By default, it was always set to follow very closely with Google's design language, but you could get something very similar to the density of RIF as well.

Did it have the option to swipe between posts instead of needing to click on each one? It was a basic feature of the official reddit app that I'm surprised more 3rd party apps didn't emulate. Joey was the only android app that I found that had it

An option for a left to right swipe that goes through all posts on a subreddit one by one with a big media-centric post view? I haven't used the official app, but if that's what you're looking for, it does! I can't think of a single way to view reddit that Sync didn't have support for.
