The RIF dev ended up going with some non-federated reddit alternative. I get it, probably a much less flooded market (we already have so many options for Lemmy). But a bummer nonetheless.

Sync for reddit was also cheaper, but the market for a reddit app is much larger than Lemmy’s. We’ll see how boost and others will be priced, but I expect it will be pricier than the reddit version.

The RIF dev recently released an alpha for his Tildes app, Three Cheers for Tildes. It’s in an earlier state than Sync but already quite usable.
