I was looking forward to trying Sync today now that it's live, but my enthusiasm was immediately dampened after seeing the "Data Safety" section on the Google Play store.

Liftoff has been great, and want to say thanks for making an awesome app. This will continue to be my daily driver.


Edit: for clarity, because the post got way bigger than I expected.

Sync looks like a fantastic app, and the dev/s should charge whatever they feel is fair for their efforts, even if that's through the usual ads + ad tracking.

My intent was just to post here in /c/Liftoff to thank the Liftoff devs for managing to somehow offer an awesome app without any of that.

You have other free and amazing options that sync has no advantages over. They are all just as good, if not better.

  1. Liftoff
  2. Thunder
  3. Jerboa
  4. Connect
  5. Voyager (my favorite so far)
  6. Infinity for Lemmy. Early development, but still free and no ads

I don't get why I would go for sync, get tracked, watch ads or pay a monthly subscription!

Infinity is coming? Is it similar to the reddit version? And where can I see updates for it?

It's already out, but it still has lots of references to reddit. There's even still a ui for giving out awards
