Sync is doing fine but I honestly don't understand the hype.

There is a dozen apps out there since the reddit migration with some having nearly the same features but without ads, without subscriptions and regular updates ever since.

Off the top of my head: Voyager, Summit, Connect, Thunder, Liftoff.

Every single one of those apps except Summit and Voyager has janky scrolling, which is easy to notice on a 90Hz screen.

Sync has not dropped a single frame since my install on all my devices.

And every one of them has just one tiny annoyance I can't let go.

E.g.
Connect: only left hand voting. I use my phone almost always in one hand and it's my right hand.
Liftoff: no auto-hide the bottom (quite big) bar.
Summit: post actions only available when in the post. (Like save or share.)

So stuff like this. They are not the end of the world, but y'know: better without them.

And the stutter on most of them. Annoying as hell.

Interestingly I quit using Voyager because the scrolling wasn't high frame rate, but maybe that was because I was using it on Firefox? Thunder is smooth for me.

Yeah that's a Firefox issue, you need to enforce 90Hz on Firefox using adb to make it work
