MODERATORS
Tried sync but honestly given that it's an advertisement supported app, I couldn't find a single justification to keep using it, short of the generic "spez bad sync good" base.
I switched to Jerboa, I don't like the idea of accessing a free community via a paid/tracking app. It doesn't make any sense to use an app that actively works against my interests, just because they did a good job making the app fast.
Jerboa seems good so far, I'm only ~9 hours into it though. It's definitely more stable than lemmy beta was.
Also honestly I'm already tired of every fan boy (you're out there don't act coy) yelling about how amazing it is. My all page has waaaaay too many posts about sync, doesn't feel organic. Was instantly not an issue when I switched to Jerboa however.
Reminds me a lot of how I had to block the "enough musk spam" because ironically they were filling my all page with TOO MUCH MUSK SPAM. Wtf
That's interesting. All the sync stuff feels the same between sync, summit, and thunder. I guess ymmv
Yeah I've no idea, could have just been a timing thing too, I'll never know. But I do know I like FOSS
