Please note this is just a beta and there are going to be bugs, but it works and it works nicely. Have fun.

does a purchase simply hide the ads or do they still run in the background, collecting data and tracking and draining battery?

I read in another post, that the ad library is not initialized anymore after purchasing ad-free. So no, it's not just out of sight, but really not running in the background anymore. Can't confirm if it's true, but it makes sense and would be correct approach by the dev.

Setting posts to be lists and the thumbnail to the right causes the posts to be completely screwy with thumbnails both on the left, right, and non-existent.

Finally! I can make comments on mobile again!

Just a couple of issues I have, otherwise great and already subbed.

Creating or editing a comment does not follow text size changes for comments (it does once it's posted)
Post text and title size (once viewing the full post) cannot be resized
When viewing profile comments there is no indicator of what sub section I'm viewing (ex: comments, posts etc).

Edit: Found 1 and 2 can be effected by the general font size.

amazing, I was even able to import my settings from the RedditSync app!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Anyone else seeing "view more comments" and then a message saying "no comments added"? Also the lines that line up comments and replies don't always seem to work the right way.

It's beautiful, its the sync I know and love. It's so damn beautiful.

Thanks! Great to be back.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

The fact that I can use my settings backup file from the previous version of Sync to immediately set this one up the way I like is just great. Nice work!

It already feels very familiar. Might be my main way of browsing Lemmy soon, like it was with Sync for Reddit!

Anyone know what it's built with? Jetpack compose?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Love this, really feels like reddit is back! Where can I donate?

The app is amazing, lj is a wizard.

Ok, I waited. This is good. Thanks LJ!
