What exactly is so bad about sync and what makes the others better? I'm not trying to be a jackass I've heard this before but I've never really understood it. I started on a couple of apps like I think probably jerboa and Voyager when they first came out and they were kind of buggy. Sync came out and it worked better than the others.
So what am I being a fool about please educate me, are we just giving it bad reviews cuz it's not updated and seemingly poor as hell communication by the creator?
The Lemmy API has started to change, causing some features to not properly work anymore (e.g. Marking as Read hasn't been properly working for months) and some content to become inaccessible (some posts and some comments just don't load anymore, especially noticeable with "error 17").
That's not to mention that new features simply won't be available, e.g. all the new stuff mentioned in the last release notes.
Time to switch then
