Hi everyone, first comment on here. Going to try to get an MVP out within the next 3-6 weeks.
I’ll be posting updates on discord:
Cheers, Ljdawson

MVP! MVP! MVP!
Minimum Viable Product, if anyone wants to know the answer.
Thought I agree on most valuable
This is going to be a game changer. I’ve been using Sync Pro since 2015 and can’t see myself using anything else for mobile browsing. Thanks for the awesome app!
That is great news! I look forward to trying it when it is ready. I really enjoyed using Sync and was so sad that ruined their ecosystem.
This is awesome! Thank you!
This is exciting.
I’m literally getting emotional. For me, Sync was reddit. Been using it for over 11 years. Can’t wait to be an early adopter and never let go again.
If you need beta testers familiar with the original Sync or anything, happy to help!
That’s fantastic news!
Wow that’s awesome news. Thank you!
Sigh…I just put on new underwear too.

We’ve been using it for sync development for the last few years.
When there’s enough to release of course they’ll be changelog and posts etc too.
The whole fediverse needs some serious UX work.
Well yeah, but that’s the difference between volunteering and being on a big salary. Hopefully the influx of new users will lead to more code input though, and more donations.
Yeah using it rn is pretty ass compared to old reddit and 3rd party apps. Good things coming tho.
It’s exciting to see all these apps ramping up development. Honestly, the greatest gift that Reddit gave to the fediverse is sending all their former third party developers here, because that will greatly accelerate development.
Thanks Obama… I meant Spez
The end of Sync is the reason why I will leave Reddit at the end of the month. So nice to see that we eventually might get a new app for Lemmy!
If only sync for reddit would auto-update to sync for lemmy
Same And double samez
As a recent lemmy convert from reddit who exclusively used Sync, this made my day. Thanks for the news.
i will follow the sync app to the ends of the earth
I saw it in the redditsync subreddit already - this is such great news, especially since I’m still struggling to get used to the Lemmy interface. I had bought Sync Pro 7 years ago and it is probably the most heavily used app on my phone.
As a iOS user I really hope Apollo will follow!
Doubt it. He sounded really burnt out
Just created an account then downloaded Jerboa. I am +/- ten minutes old here in Fediverse yet. About to delete my 11 year-old account in Reddit. Thank you u/spez
Same here !
This is genuinely exciting news.
Likely a game changer that has be giving Lemmy a try. Jerboa isn’t too terrible either.
I agree. Been using Jerboa as well and it’s nice and usable enough as a placeholder, but I’ll be watching the Sync development. Can’t wait!
Jerboa has been nice, besides the weird glitch where it shoots me back to the top of a post when scrolling down. Lol
Otherwise it’s pretty good for a FOSS solution!
The newest update looks good imo.
I will pick this up day 1! Been using sync for years and have always come back to it.
I’m genuinely so excited for this and and the same time hoping boost makes one too. They recently dropped their latest update and it looks beyond pretty with the rounded edge cards and adaptive colours.
Great news!! I would rather Infinity for Lemmy, but it’s a great step in the right direction to make a best community. Althought Infinity is open source. If I were programmer I will do Infinity for Lemmy. But I need time before know how to program.
I want an infinity for lemmy as well
Please, to some programmer: make this posible!
Yep, i’m permanently on Lemmy with this news.
Wow, I’ve never even used Sync but from the screenshot of the Reddit app on Google Play it’s one of those UIs so good that make you want to use it. I’m currently fine with the Lemmy PWA but the more feature-complete Reddit apps that get “ported” to be used with Lemmy the better, especially to ease the transition for new users.
Sync is an absolutely wonderful app. I look forward to his contunued dev work
