No, we see it - it’s just dumb. Having a free as in freedom and beer set of clients is great for lemmy - but also having market driven clients available is healthy for catering to individual preferences. Boost existing isn’t your problem - clients that you like exist and please go enjoy them. I’m not certain why you’re lurking here, is it just out of masochism? The person you’re replying to at least put out helpful information about the application.

More choice is a good thing and four dollars for an app forever is extremely reasonable.

I worked my way through just about every Reddit client available for Android and Boost was the only one that wasn’t super annoying. I’m happy to support development of an app that I use every day, especially if it wouldn’t be available at all otherwise.
