Also, this is unrelated to post, but what I would really like is a synchronized inbox for all logged in instances. Only the in box. I wonder if that is even possible. Loving the app

Nah, this is kinda one of the big differences for which i prefer thunder. I like the post density it brings. If you want your big image card views there are lots of lemmy apps out there that have this layout.
It works for me but I disabled actions on the LTR swipe for now because I keep accidentally upvoting or downvoting comments when I try to swipe back to my feed. I noticed it takes a specific kind of swipe action for it to work and I need to get used to it to make it repeatable. I don’t upvote/downvote in the first place anyway, so I don’t mind disabling LTR swipe actions.
The scrolling stutter on the feed can be smoothed out a bit by disabling external link previews. There is a bit of an overhead constantly calling out to external sites to scrape for an image to show. As for the comment feed. I think it could be better and I’m hoping it’s something we can improve on.
Your comment led me to take another look at where we display external links and I think there is an improvement that can be made. Currently that option I mentioned disables all external link thumbnails. But what we should do instead is only disable the image scraping and still show the thumbnails if Lemmy has them. Expect a fix soon :)
As a current Thunder and previous Syncfor Reddit user, I can understand Sync’s charm.
It’s a lot polished, the most polished Lemmy client right now. There’s absolutely no lag with weird config (e.g. link preview for Thunder), hell lot of customisation, ability to backup and restore settings, ability to parse virtually any links within Sync and even provide download option, etc.
Sunc benefits from using same old codebase with backend tweaking to Lemmy.
Thunder will ultimately catch up to that, but saying Thunder is current state is perfect and matches up with Sync in features is big hyperbole.
