  • Yes, the new one looks nice and clean. I think a bit of padding really helps to make it look modern. (yeah, I know this will ruffle some feathers because some people apparently prefer 0px padding on everything)

    One thing that always irked me a bit about the old “comment reply” window is that it has a fixed division of the comment you’re replying to, and your own reply. Maybe a toggle would be nice? (and it would also be nice if that top window would also show the text from self-posts when I’m writing a top-level comment; that way we would be able to copy/quote from the selftext. IIRC on reddit it only worked when I was replying to a comment)

    Thanks for your work! Using Sync here feels like coming home.





  • I like the timely updates and I very much like the UI. Not just the Material You color scheme (which I initially thought was a useless gimmick but have come to really like) but the look in general. Everything is just so pleasantly designed. I know that people around here hate too much padding but I think that’s what makes the Pixel UI look so good. On other phones I always have the feeling that the padding isn’t right; for example, on many phones (especially Samsung) the text in the status bar isn’t center-aligned vertically and it drives me nuts. Or the text is squeezed into the corners.

    On top of that there are useful features like Call Screening or Live Transcribe. And the voice typing is phenomenal.


  • It’s not cheaper at all sync ultra is €3 a month and add free is a €20 one time payment

    I mean, you cannot really compare monthly payments with one-time payments. Since ad-free is only available as one-time payment it only makes sense to compare the one-time payment prices for each of them. The one-time payment for ultra is ~180€. The one-time payment for ad-free is ~20€. Is that not cheaper?





  • Thanks man! I really loved the Sync user experience on reddit and I’m glad it’s now here too. In fact, when logged in on feddit.de (which currently isn’t prone to outages like lemmy.world) it runs so fast that I sometimes think the content has been loaded from the cache – but it isn’t. Really great.

    My only wish would be for Sync to respect the setting that I selected on the website to not show any post/comment scores. Not constantly checking scores really helps with digital detox and also leads to me reading posts that I’m actually interested in (by the headline) instead of looking at stuff just because it has a lot of upvotes.
