Voyager is fantastic. I started with Memmy and settled on Voyager for a while. But I’m trying Avelon right now and it’s smoooooth. The swipe back function works much better on Avelon, and their “Explore” tab is great.
I like the fact that no client has a majority
You could argue that 25% for sync is quite something, and almost double that of the next largest competitor.
I am using it, it’s okay, not as good as Reddit Is Fun was.
but I have to say I am not as evangelical about pushing open source and lack of telemetry, so I don’t care about unintrusive ads as a free-tier, nor do I care a lot about collecting usage data to improve the app
This made me so happy to see people talking about my poll! This is exactly why I wanted to make it! :)
This reminded me of high quality gifs sub (I don’t remember the exact name)
Good alternatives are always needed, though! I love Sync, but then I am also not sure it would be as good as it is today if it wasn’t compelled to stay competitive with RIF, Baconreader, Apollo (to a lesser extent) and the dozen other Reddit apps that used to be out there (F in the chat).
I wish the Apollo dev would’ve ported his app and migrated his user base. IMHO, Syncs popularity shows that the developer was able to migrate a lot of their old user base to Lemmy.
I’m waiting for Boost since the reddit exodus. I’ve condemned myself to mobile browsing particularly to be loyal to boost and also the enjoy how much better 3rd party clients are when it’s finally live.
