Android users desperately need a better app for browsing Lemmy than Jerboa. Boost and Sync may just be that app.

Liftoff is the best one so far IMO.

Thank you Ruben!

It seems like the future for Lemmy is pretty bright with all these amazing apps switching over.

It's a shame that Christian decided to not develop Apollo for Lemmy for the time being. I bet that would also convince a fair share of users to abandon ship.

Great news! Waiting for Boost and Sync

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Can't wait. Boost is my most used app on Android and this will be great.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

No waaaaay! The dev said it's not happening, I'm so glad to see he's actually doing it!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It‘ll be great to see that icon on my screen again! This is amazing!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I changed the liftoff icon to the boost icon just to get me through.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Haha I did the same. That muscle memory tapping that icon too hard to shift.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Nice! Really hoping BaconReader follows suit soon as well 👍🏻

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I am incredibly happy to see this. Boost has been my absolutely favorite choice for a very long time

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I am thrilled, Boost has been the best Reddit experience for me since I stopped loving Bsconreader. I don't even remember what my problem with it was, I think it was crashing or.... something, haha.

Boost ended up being a UI I preferred significantly, and I never looked back! This is gonna be FANTASTIC, where do I throw my money?!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Awesome pawsome

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yessss I had all but given up hope. There is a god.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I saw that "subreddit" was changed to "communties" in the app recently so I was quite certain that a version for Lemmy is being at least experimented with.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

This is so exciting! Boost was my app of choice for the old place. I'm glad to see this here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

lol the downvoted post in one of the screenshots, the dev singled out @zac for absolutely no reason and I love it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was a RIF user and would like to see something similar over here. RIF feed is over. Rip.

Pretty cool. I think this would be a nice place to migrate to.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Great news! Love seeing the Lemmyverse continue to expand!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Wohooo!!! Favourite app!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You beauty!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Hell yeah, another great app joining the migration. Can't wait to get my hands on it. Keep up the great work.

"Contains ads" no thank you

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Boost has always had ads, it's one time purchase removal

I'm a total noob so using lemmy was a real challenge to get started, but I downloaded wefwef today and it's basically just like Reddit, very easy to use and feels very comfortable.
