You ever felt like you've been stabbed in the chest?

Edit: got myself a less ancient phone and let me tell you: it's beautiful

[–] jayandp@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 year ago (3 children)

What kind of device do you have?

The best Palm Pilot that money can buy.

Are you kidding me? Just checked this community for the first time in a month and this post is 15 minutes old? That's freaky timing

I've been checking every single day hah. Great timing on your part.

It appears that it is getting close to a full release for Sync for Lemmy. My only concert is that it might go to a subscription only method of payment. I'd rather pay a lot for a one time unlock or even like a 2 year unlock instead of a monthly subscription.

Im getting subscription burnout and I'm sick of having to juggle literally a hundred subscriptions every month. If it does go subscription based, sadly I'll probably pass on it. Which would be a sad close to a long history of using sync.

We're talking over this on discord:

Consensus is one time payment to remove ads or subscription for ultra (which also covers ad removal)

[–] Gazumbo@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

That seems fair. I'm in the camp that is really hesitant to take on another subscription but also understand that this your living and it has to be worthwhile for you.

Not related to this app, but I agree very much about subscriptions. I cancelled most of mine.

There will be a single time payment for ad-free as was the case with Sync for Reddit. Any subscription based model is for the features which are going to require running (and paying) for a server. Even for Ultra (the paid subscription model) we would most likely have a lifetime option.

Aw man, a pre-register? I mean obviously I pre-registered, but you got me super excited for a second lol

[–] Trapping5341@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Same here πŸ˜‚ saw the Google replay link and clicked through "install" instantly then realized it was just a pre register πŸ˜‚

Congrats @ljdawson@lemmy.world

[–] alternativeninja@lemmy.sdf.org 56 points 1 year ago (12 children)

I'm in the beta. It's great. It really feels like nothing happened.

Layout is the same, etc. Only thing not implemented yet is the inbox.

You guys are in for a treat

Anyone else noticed that Connect for Lemmy has just changed its design? Feels like it's taken a lot of "inspiration" from Sync...

[–] Neve8028@lemm.ee 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I remember the dev of connect was in this community praising sync a little while back so I'm not surprised.

[–] kuro_neko@lemmy.ca 55 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Connect dev here - I am! Big fan of Sync (which probably comes through in Connect's design language). RIF and Infinity is also a source of inspiration.

I'm looking forward to replacing the Sync icon I still have sitting on my homescreen that just throws a 401. Can't bring myself to kill it.

I paid for regular Sync, I paid for Dev Sync when the new UI was only in that channel, and I will gladly pay for Lemmy Sync the second I can!

I'm excited and pre-registered. I didn't pay for sync for reddit, but now that I am more educated about the life of developers and third party apps, I will def pay for sync for lemmy. I have heard good things about some of the existing apps, but I have just been using the web browser while I wait for the sync app to be ready, and I am so ready to download and use it. <3

Can't wait to delete all the other lemmy apps I've been trying. Most do most things well, but none do everything well like Sync.

Lemmy have it! πŸ˜„

[–] LarkinDePark@lemmygrad.ml 17 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I wish RIF became LIF. :-(

[–] Subverb@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

All due respect, Sync was better. I appreciate that you liked RiF but give Sync a try.
