Sadly I think I’m finally ready to put Sync out to pasture since it isn’t maintained.

    Thunder is my favourite. It’s an android app and I got it from F-Droid (Izzy on Droids Repo). Clean and customizable interface, convenient features like for example multi account support. I would recommend it!

      Too bad it can’t handle private messages apart from reading; you can’t even easily mark them as read. The interface is mostly excellent, though, and hey, I’m using it for this comment right now.

      Was trying out Voyager and Thunder yesterday. Thunder seems like the winner to me. Voyager’s appearance isn’t customizable enough for my tastes. I am not a gesture person (I prefer to turn swipe actions for posts and comments off entirely) and really need more tappable things for Voyager to work for me.

      One thing I would like in thunder is the ability to hide more of the interface when replying to comments. I have large thumbs and in landscape mode (which I type in exclusively) the button bar takes up a lot of space that could be better used for seeing my typed text and the comment I’m replying to.

    I did so last week, when the amount of posts where Sync wouldn’t show me the comments became annoying. I switched to Boost, and after some tinkering got it to a state where the UI was adequate for me.

    I use Eternity. AFAIK it doesn’t have ads and it’s pretty much what I’m looking for. I tried others but they had ads and I couldn’t tolerate that.

      Has it needed an update? He was really good with the Reddit app. If there isn’t an active problem with the app tho, it may not need updated. It’s what I use, and I haven’t had any issues with it

      Edit: just to get onto my parent comment, he is working on an update for 0.19.9 features, posted 2 days ago. It seems there may have been some departure from regular updates, so hard to defend that, but seems like he’s back on it?

    Until thunder adds the ability to DM people properly I can’t really fully leave sync behind. The second thunder gets DMs working I’ll be ditching sync as well.
