I’m new to Lemmy and using sync because it works for me. I was a relay for reddit user, but I quit reddit and this is a reasonable facsimile for me. I’m happy enough with this interface but time will tell.
Same situation here, used Relay for years. Still getting used to Sync, but it’s very customizable so I can configure it to be somewhat like Relay. But still waiting for Relay for Lemmy.
I did like many aspects of the official Reddit app until they enshittified it, so I’m reusing some concepts it had. It’s still in alpha phase, and even then, there’s some things I liked that I’m not sure I’ll implement. I particularly liked the second tab in the bottom navigation bar when it had your list of subscribed subreddits and an alphabetical scrollbar. That was super awesome. I’ll definitely try to add something like that in the future, probably after I get feature parity with the official UI.
I’m avoiding pop-ups by editing the current relevant components. So, when you press “submit”, the error message will be inside the form instead of as a pop-up. Or when you report a post, the form appears inside the post instead of as a pop-up. It’s much more intuitive to use and I think I can make it faster to use.
I am happy with Jerboa. I used to use Boost and Infinity for Reddit. I tried out Infinity, Voyager, Sync and connect. So far, Jerboa has been the best experience for me.
I keep flip-flopping between thunder and liftoff. I like the visual design of liftoff but thunder feels easier to use … I could probably fiddle about with their settings and make one that last bit better than the other in either direction but I’m not sure wich way to go. (Posted from Liftoff)
