Hi, long-time Sync user here; I would like to share with you what I consider the best settings to reach an excellent experience (IMHO obviously)
Below are only the changes I apply to the default values
Settings > General
- “use drawer navigation” [Enabled]
Settings > Experimental
- “sliding panel style drawer” [Enabled]
- “highlight stickied posts” [Enabled]
Settings > View type
- “slides”
- “preview full width” [Enabled]
- “save” [Disabled]
- “right aligned voting” [Enabled]
Settings > Post options
- “swipe to hide” [Enabled]
- “extend swipe posts …” [Disabled]
Settings > Comment options
- “single click to hide comment” [Enabled]
- “collapse parent” [Enabled]
- “single click to hide comment” [Enabled]
I absolutely cannot stand this behavior, if I accidentally tap instead of scroll then comment trees will expand/collapse and then I feel lost. Jerboa has this behavior and it was the most annoying thing about it when I used it, I’d say it was close to making me feel nauseous at times.
But hey, that’s the great thing about Sync being so customizable, you can choose whatever behavior you prefer!
List or bust.
I find volume key navigation very nice when the comment threads get really long.
Settings > Comment Options
- Volume Key Navigation
You can literally link directly to it.
hmm. the collapse parent setting isn’t working for me for some reason. it’s on but the parent comments aren’t collapsing. dunno what’s going wrong on my end ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
