Is it just me or did Lemmy suddenly became more active now that Sync for Lemmy is released? - eviltoast

I don’t know if this is just a placebo effect, but it feels like there’s a lot more socialization and faster upvotes in the past hour Sync was released.

    At least the experience scrolling through lemmy now is 100x better.

      It’s night and day, Jerboa felt like an app from 2010

        This. They were missing some key ease of access features like hide read posts

        Sooooooo thankful that sync is up and running

            Does Sync have automatically hide read posts? I couldn’t find it in the settings, could you point me to it?

              I don’t know about automatically but I have it on my actions. The three little dots in the top right you can bring up the menu and if hide read isn’t there you can hit the three dots again on that menu - action visibility, to add it. Can hold and drag the order of the actions too.

                Yeah, unfortunately that’s not permanent. If I refresh or come back later, the seen posts are back again. I don’t know if it’s a bug or an intended feature :/

              It does, at least auto-hide after seeing post media. Saw that in the settings. Very good offering overall.

                  Ah forget it, my bad. I must have been confusing apps, I was comparing a bunch earlier today. Sorry about that.

          Using web, going back always put the feed active, despite me changing the sort. So yeah, having the app back is good. And I got all my use patterns back!

      It’s nice to have an app that runs smoothly and doesn’t stutter or jitter while scrolling and navigating through lemmy.
