Sync for Lemmy app replacement which has multi windows for posts & communities (reddthat.com)

The sync developer has been MIA for a long time (1 year or longer) and I fear it will stop working sooner or later when Lemmy instances start updating to v1.0 in future.

I use Sync because it has a nice Material you theme, is smooth, supports caching posts & media offline (also keeps the comments, posts loaded even if android reclaims memory from the app)

I can open posts, comments, and even communities in a seperate window if I choose to do so.

Anything with multi window support out there yet? I used voyager for posting. But, want sync like multi window capabilities.

Thanks, I did.

You could use Boost. The developer has only been sorta MIA for 6 months.

Did you read my post? I want a client which support multi-window

[-] Twinklebreeze@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Apparently not well enough. I was mostly joking as I'm not sure boost is being actively developed anymore.

I have boost installed since it came out. But, 6 months vs a whole year is different. Plus, multi window in not possible in it.
