    I was actually talking about Sync. Wild to know there’s two Lemmy apps that are not free and no longer developed!

    Edit: I’m fairly certain one of the app devs that are super active, like voyager or summit, could add the feature you like if you bring it up

      Is sync that bad? The ads were a one removal for quite cheap. The developer has to get paid somehow.

      What app do you recommend on Android?

        It hasn’t been updated, let alone the dev hasn’t been online, for over a year and a half. Mind you the dev is still taking subscription payments for an app that is rather broken at this point. Most of the other apps don’t require payments and don’t have ads. It’ll fully be broken when Lemmy 1.0 releases. Compare that to any number of Lemmy apps that have been continuously updated without ads or subscriptions.

        What features you like in an app will be your own! But, I’m on android and have been very happy with Voyager. The dev is responsive, and it’s one of the handful I know that now also work with piefed.

          Wow no I haven’t noticed that. For me, it has “just worked” fine since I switched which was right at the beginning.

          I will look into voyager. Thanks 😊

      Summit! It’s what I’m using and the dev has a community on Lemmy and replies to requests or questions frequently, and posting patch notices etc. Definitely recommend it

      Edit: I misread your comment and thought you were asking. But yeah summit is great and I’ve heard good things about voyager too
