For those of you that have never used Sync here on Lemmy. Sync for reddit had a tablet mode switch you could toggle on and it was easily the most user friendly app with tablets it could split your feed in half while allowing you to scroll right in the feed and on the left hand side for your threads and it created multi tabs for threads you had open.

I wonder if Sync for Lemmy will be able to do the same thing.

Tablet and foldable will be ready for the first release. Cheers.

Awesome, thank you. Right now, not a single Lemmy app or web app supports tablets/foldables, so Sync will have a huge advantage over everything else if this feature is present at launch.

Nice phone you have there. Got to show mine to a really old Dutch lady yesterday. She was flabbergasted. Had just gotten her first iphone and had no idea what to do with it. She was really nice.

How much of a redesign have you had to do for Lemmy? Have you been able to retain all the UI and presentation and mostly just rework the API and data handling code?

Bit of both but I'm making great progress

Foldables FTW!!!

Tablet mode is one of the best Sync features. Works great on my Surface duo and I sideloaded it on my windows machine as well, which works well. Hopefully it'll get added at some point, it's my main reason to use Sync.
