Hey The Dev, this is just a one off, random non technical user’s ( I know what <br> does and thats it) question thar are you still advancing (developing has such a Heavy Tone in it) your app? I mean, I LOVE it for the heavens, particularily on the user interface, but its kind of lagging behind of abilities of other Lemmy apps.
Also the big concern is general security as time flies by.
So as a very satisfied but also a little concerned user: whats upp? Is the app still in development, even slow burn?
Edit: I’m a wee bit drunk and not an english speaker, okay, I edited some typo’s.
The last thing we ever heard from the developer was that he just became a father. I just assume taking care of a kid is insanely time consuming.
Boost and Connect are good alternatives.
Is nobody using Sync for Lemmy?
Sync is kind of in the same situation but there is at least confirmation of an update coming with 0.19
Sync has been in this situation since 2013, but ljdawson always brings the complete API standard featureset under the latest UI design guideline.
I can’t recall how many iterations Sync for Reddit went through in its lifecycle.
Oh I’m a longterm fan too. I’m just saying if a couple months without updates bothers you it’s not the app for you.
I was searching for a way to donate to the developer today and couldn’t find one, does anyone know if this is an option? I hope it’s still being developed too because it’s by far my favorite Lemmy app 😭
Looks like it’s dead, no commits after August. You might need to switch to another app soon, thunder and jerboa are some good looking apps.
Someone was asking the same question here and they were told that 3 months of halt don’t mean the project is dead, at least 6 months have to pass… sincerely I don’t know where they got the 6-month-rule from, but let’s just wait and see.
