Afternoon everyone,

I wanted to go over a few points related to pricing, stats and the roadmap

Pricing

  1. Sync for Lemmy is completely free with ads (the same as Sync for Reddit)

  2. You can remove ads in the account picker or drawer for a one time fee of ~$20

  3. Sync Ultra also removes ads but it's not required

  4. I'll be working on regional prices over the coming weeks

There are now 24k installed users up from 100 the previous day!

I'm going to be spending the next few days going through all of the comments / messages and fixing any crashes.

As always thanks for the support and hope you're liking Sync!

Lj

Installed and could immediately tell it was a great app. I just bought Ultra Lifetime.

My request would be the ability to collapse comments and to be able to promote certain post options buried in the menu to a button (like bookmark), namely, I use "hide post" a lot, and would like to choose to access it without having to drill into the menu. I recognize others might use other post options more frequently (like share or something), so it would be nice to make that configurable.

Thanks for a great app!! ๐Ÿ‘

Edit: thanks to some helpful replies, I now know that I can collapse comments by long pressing on them, and I can hide posts quickly by swiping them to the left!

Do you know about long-pressing comments, or did I not understand you correctly?

In the settings you can also reverse so a short tap collapses and long tap brings up comment options. And another setting to also collapse the parent comment instead of only comments below it.

I didn't know until now, thank you!!

Pro tip: if you long-press a setting it copies a sync link to it, so you can paste it like so:

Comment options > Single click to hide comment

Cool, thanks for the tip!

Long press a comment to collapse it

[โ€“] FederatedSaint@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you, I did NOT know that!!!

[โ€“] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Swipe to the left on posts themselves (not comments) and it hides them without the menu

[โ€“] FederatedSaint@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Awesome, thanks for this! Very helpful!!!

I just realized that hidden posts do not stay hidden between browsing sessions.

For instance, I will open Sync, swipe away a post to hide it, close sync, reopen, and that post is no longer hidden. Am I missing a setting? Or is this a bug?

[โ€“] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I think it's a bug that the dev is working on. Lemmy doesn't support hiding natively is the answer I got.
