Ditto. Used to be a Boost user on Reddit, joined Lemmy when Boost was released for it, but ended up switching to Connect because boost was finicky for me for some reason. Never saw any reason to look back, i like Connect better
I’ve been using sync pretty much every day since it became available, it was my Reddit client of choice too, so it’s helped me cut Reddit out entirely.
Sorry to go slightly off topic, but does anyone know if any of the iOS apps have a similar experience to sync, particularly those with iPad support?
I like experimenting and switching, so no choice is ever “final”. Speaking of open source apps: Jerboa is the only native (kotlin+jetpack compose) for Android and its author is one of the very creators of Lemmy itself so he is an authority and I really like his “philosophy”. Thunder offers a very polished and appealing UI/UX. Liftoff is feature rich even though somehow buggy. Apart from the mere app features, the community, the developer attitude, its being an open platform etc. are all factors to consider in my opinion.
Same. I kept switching between the others until Boost was released. Boost just “feels right” to me in a way others can get close to but never quite succeed at.
I prefer Sync but I can’t figure out how to embiggen all text, so comments and stuff are fine but the actual text of a post is miniscule so I’m back on Voyager. I find the navigation a bit clunky but overall it’s good. I also used connect for a while but it was slow.
Edit: thanks everyone who linked settings but none of those are it. Here is an example of what I see on posts in sync vs the comments. I also forgot it doesn’t give me in app notifications if I get a message or response. I don’t want push notifications but it doesn’t give me in app notifications either. i.imgur.com/iUY2Sfw.png
Unfortunately that isn’t the piece of text I need changed. I edited my commentveity a screenshot where description is extra large and comments are only large.
