New subreddit talking about it here. I’m assuming it will eventually be a Lemmy community
Wow, tried to view it on my mobile and just got a pop up from reddit saying it’s unreviewed content and I should be careful, ONLY giving me the options either to leave or download the official reddit app to view it.
What a fucking shit show.

This is the new community on Lemmy
Edit of course it’s a lemmy.world community. Sorry guys, I’m not on the beehaw instance so I see both.
lol:
I’m genuinely excited though. I’ve been a long time sync user, and I’d love to see similar features available for Lemmy!
like if the app is serving different content than the browser…
Lol I clicked the link and reddit showed
This community has not been reviewed and might contain content inappropriate for certain viewers. View in the Reddit app to continue.
With the only two options being
continue in the apportake me homeI can’t follow this logic of Reddit’s. Ohh, a community hasn’t been reviewed to ensure it’s safe? Oh, a community is NSFW? Gee golly, if you’re on a mobile phone you’ll have to use our app to look at it! We can’t have that open to the internet (unless you’re on desktop then you’re all good, until we make an official desktop app)
It’s just their excuse to make you use their shitty app
Yup. Same here.
That’s hilarious!
Just WOW! I’m using SyncPro for 9+ years, I’ll support this app for sure!!!
Really hope Relay does the same
This is fantastic news. By far the best Reddit app for Android, so I have no doubt the lemmy version will also be fantastic.
Ahhh! Yes!!! Sync is my baby, dripfeeding my mainline supply of reddit for the last several years. Bought the lifetime and don’t regret it. I’m excited!
Will there be a version of the app for iOS?
Mlem is a good beginning, but I hope for an Apollo-level quality app for Lemmy. It’ll come, in time. And perhaps SyncForLemmy will be just that!
That is our goal with Mlem. And trust me, our team is working, as absolutely fast as we can! Keep in mind, though, we’re starting from scratch. 😁
Have to assume it’ll be Android-only like Sync for Reddit is/was, right?
There was a Sync for iOS beta at one point… in the dark days before Apollo.
There’s also Memmy. https://testflight.apple.com/join/6jaRU6rD
But it’s also unfinished
I’m testing Memmy and it’s rapidly being amazing, super impressed
As someone who paid for Sync Pro, I would gladly pay the developer again for a Lemmy app. I just hope /u/ljdawson won’t opt for a “subscription” based app.
100%. The few bucks I spent on Sync Pro were some of the best dollars I’ve spent.
Obviously lemmy.world isnt the ideal location for beehaw users to follow but you dont need to be logged in to view content so I’d suggest just browsing the syncforlemmy community natively for now. Right now there are no official posts by ljdawson anyways.
Seems like a consequence of beehaw’s actions
I mean yes it is a consequence of beehaw’s actions. Those actions were justified though and the consequences mild considering how easy it is to view a community without being logged in.
I’m not sure why you’re so defensive about it, but ok?
Im not being defensive. I’m agreeing with you but adding context for other people. It’s legitimately consequences of beehaw’s actions. Those actions have a valid reason though.
Your post is specifically worded/presented in a way to illicit a reaction from people, which you got. So it’s fair for me to qualify my answer when I agree with you.
That’s my favorite reddit client. I was hoping someone would do a similar client for Lemmy. This is great news, I’d totally buy a paid version of Sync for Lemmy just to support the developer.
And Boost will apparently be included as a patchable app in ReVanced Manager, allowing any user to use thir own API. i’m sure there could have been a very sensible way for 3rd party app developers continue their amazing work and Reddit get a share of the profits…This Elon Effect is stupid to a default
this has been my reddit app for over a decade!!! this just made my entire day!!
