He has abandoned sync development but not the business (find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk)

I like many among you loved sync and am frustrated with the bugs and lack of updates. It seems LJ has all but abandoned the app, so I did some looking around on the business of sync apps Ltd and can see from public records in the UK that he is keeping the business up to date. So it seems he is fine with collecting passive income from ad revenue.

@ljdawson@lemmy.world please just open source this app so the community can fix these bugs.

I myself have moved to thunder, very similar UX, lots of customization, and it's open source.

OK so that works but is awfully clunky - swipe partway right to upvote and fully right to downvote as opposed to tapping on the up / down arrow.

Yeah if that's not configurable I'm out. And I'm damned if I can work out where to configure it

EDIT

OK, it's settings, appearance, comments, show comments action buttons.

With that usability hurdle cleared, OK, I'll give it a burl

Thanks for detailing where to find that.

I was put off by the description of the app, but knowing that some customisation is possible means I'll probably give it a go now.
