For me at least.

Looks like they enforced rate limits an hour before midnight UTC.

    Really looking forward to Lemmy on Sync. Hopefully it helps kickstart some greater exodus from Reddit to Lemmy.

    Really loved sync, and on principal have quit reddit. I don’t know if it does anything, but when I need search results from reddit I view the Google cached version instead.

    Looking forward to sync for lemmy (I NEED a read-on-scroll for lemmy, I don’t know how everyone else is handling it).

    I just used the revanced hack to make it still work by making Reddit think it’s my own developed app. Able to use it right now!

    But I REALLY like Lemmy, so even if I occasionally use Reddit after that dumpster fire, my usage will be split in half by Lemmy.

      I tried the Revanced patch as well, it worked flawlessly, but oh dude, it was still the official reddit app, it was so bad lmao I had been using Boost for about 3 years and honestly there is no point of comparison, 3rd party apps are so much better.

        I think you misunderstood, I used the revanced manager to patch Sync so I could continue to use it, not the official app to just remove ads (which would still be an improvement).

        Here you go. It doesn’t violate the terms of service for Reddit to use it this way, but given the fact that blacking out or John Olivering subreddits was also not against TOS but Reddit took action against it, it’s strongly recommended you make a new Reddit account if you plan to do this.

      I’ve tried Jerboa, Liftoff, and Connect, and so far Connect is my favorite. Definitely waiting with anticipation for Sync for Lemmy, though.

        Also on Connect and it’s daily updates are making it very usable. It’s quick, slick, has material you and even the bugs are somehow not really distracting, they don’t have a negative impact on the experience.

        Mostly things like “1 points” or the not reacting textarea toolbar. It could be coded by me, it makes me already feel at home.

    End of an era for me. Had the pro version for 11 years and was using the free before that. Most app screentime every day on my phone. I refuse to install the official reddit app.

      I had the official app installed for push notifications, but other than the initial setup I never opened it… holy shit it’s bad.

    There’s a Revanced patch for Sync as well as a few other popular apps that let’s you continue using 3rd party apps. I’m currently running a patched version of Sync Pro and it still completely works just like it did before.

        The current workaround is to become a moderator. Just create your own subreddit and that should potentially give you access to nsfw. Maybe also set the sub to nsfw for good measure.

      which Revanced patch allows to continue using it? I use the “recommended” two (Change Oauth Client Id and Disable Ads) and the patcher keeps aborting

        It’s the Change Oauth Client ID patch, but there’s some other stuff you have to setup for it to actually work. Here’s the guide that I used.

        Here’s the guide that I used. I’m also using a modded version of Sync Pro from mobilism, worked just fine in the Revanced patcher and let’s you use Pro without crashing.

    At least Sync and a couple of the other 3rd party Reddit apps will have a revival for Lemmy!

                I was a RiF user the day I got reddit and I was a RiF user the day I deleted my account, I just like Jerboa cause it seems to match the vibe.

                Was sync available on Android? I can’t remember.

    Yup, incredible, I was using SyncPro hours per day for 10 years, I certainly spent thousands of hours on it ☹️

      I can’t do it quite yet. Feels like a funeral today, and I’m only half joking. I probably sunk over a thousand hours into this app.

        It really does. I uninstalled it last night, and now there’s a big empty space on my phone where Sync is supposed to live. My wife and I were talking about it this morning, and we were talking about it in grief terms. It’s kind of like a family member died–a family member who held a lot of memories and history, and so it really is a kind of mourning process.

        For what it’s worth, that grief is part of what motivates me–like I think many of us refugees–to really push Lemmy and find our ways to get the most out of it. I want to punish the people who did this, and the way to do that is to hurt their bottom line. After I uninstalled Sync, my next step was the data request, and my next few days are going to be converting over bookmarks to their Lemmy equivalents until nothing is left.

        I feel the same about my baconreader app. They’re removing it from the play store and I can’t bring myself to uninstall it. Idk how long I’ll hold out but I might just transfer it to my next phone as a reminder/badge of honor or something.
