the post has another screenshot attached of the user somewhat defending this

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago

I only see the one post. But I see the other guy who linked it. I have to stop using sync it sucks

[-] Wav_function@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago

Looks fine to me on sync

[-] Tarquinn2049@lemmy.world 15 points 6 days ago

Hmm, worked fine for me on sync.

I use Boost and I like it. But I've also heard good things about Voyager

[-] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

+1. I've been using Voyager since it was called wefwef. It was the closest thing to Apollo I could find at the time and it has worked great for me for ~~2~~ 1.5 years now. The team has done a ton of improvements over the last ~~2~~ 1.5 years as well so it's had great support.

To be fair I haven't looked at any other apps for Lemmy since I stumbled on this one in the early days after the first reddit migration due to the API fiasco, but that's because this one suits me just fine.

edit: Guess it hasn't quite been 2 years yet.

I was a RIF user on the old site, and Voyager was close enough I just went with it. Some very minor bugs annoy me, but it's pretty solid!

+1 for thunder. Been using it since I first joined Lemmy and it's been really good. The interface is similar to that of Joey as well, which was my go to Reddit app before they killed third party apps.

[-] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

For me it was because I loved Boost for Reddit and when spez did that thing back then the dev pivoted his app and it retained all functionality so it was pretty much seamless for me. I bought the app (twice) for the ad-free experience and I launch the rocket (for a small fee) every now and then.

[-] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Boost is great. So glad he made a Lemmy version.

[-] Ditti@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 6 days ago

As a former Sync user, I can wholeheartedly recommend Thunder.

[-] jwelch55@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Am I missing a setting for "hide read posts"? That's the one thing that ruins using thunder

[-] Ditti@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

One more thing I just noticed: when you long-press the floating action button in the feed, there's a "Dismiss Read" option which seems to remove all read posts from the feed. Although you have to trigger it manually, it might be good enough?

Edit: And I can do you one better, I think: Go to Settings, Account and disable the "Show Read Posts" option. Because as it turns out, this functionality is built into Lemmy.

[-] jwelch55@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Sweet, yeah that'll do, thanks

[-] Ditti@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 days ago

Interesting, that indeed doesn't seem to exist. Best workaround I can suggest would be to enable gestures and then assign the hide action to one of the gestures.

Try Thunder as well. Available for Android and iPhone I think.
