• I know a lot of people don’t care for Sync because it isn’t a FOSS application. But it’s genuinely the best app out there right now by a huge margin. It’s extremely polished and it works so much more reliably.

    I use Jerboa mainly, and I’m constantly having to switch instances or restart Jerboa because something breaks. Sync doesn’t have the same issues, seemingly, it just works.

    For example, Jerboa makes it really difficult to “restart” the infinite scroll when something does go wrong. You hit the bottom of the infinite scroll and can’t scroll any further and the only way to recover is to either (1) scroll all the way back to the top of the feed so you can refresh or (2) restart the app. With Sync you can easily just press the home button again to go to the top of the feed. But honestly I never have to do that because it’s broken, I only ever do that to start a new session

    Overall, I’m a little stunned by the difference in quality. It’s actually remarkable
