Hey ljdawson@lemmy.world or any other mod/dev/anybody.

Is Sync still a thing? I saw you haven’t commented on lemmy for 2 months now. There are no updates here or on the Play Store. Lemmy v0.19 is rapidly coming with breaking changes. Are you prepared for that?

Thanks in the name of the community!

    Someone asked him on the discord and new update is coming with the lemmy 0.19 release. Which shouldn’t be too far away now.

        Makes sense but that’s more than Liftoff users have been given. But maybe they’re working on an update for 0.19 too and just haven’t talked about it.

    I can’t speak for the Dev but I am guessing they have other things on the go. Releasing this app as quickly as they did and following up with subsequent releases for bugs and quality of life features probably meant neglecting anything else that wasn’t of major importance.

    They are probably getting back on track with that stuff?

    Well, I can confirm I’m using it to write this comment, very smooth experience for me.

    I’m using the free version, so far any ads I’ve seen are not intrusive and tbh fairly rare

    Yeah, I’ve been pretty disappointed in the development. There are still features listed in “Coming Soon” for Ultra subscribers (of course, the ones I was most interested in), and it’s been a couple months since there was any work on it. The main argument for the (greatly) increased price was entirely focused on developing Sync now, but that does not seem to be the case

      I’ve also been waiting for updates on regional pricing for Ultra. I want to support the dev, but can’t justify the price for what is essentially about 10 days worth minimum wage in my country.

    Hopefully there’s an update coming before 0.19 comes out and break Sync…

      Last time this was asked someone got ahold of him on discord. New Sync update comes when 0.19 officially releases.

    I wound up buying Sync twice before. And I have a network wide adblock, so it’s great. Exactly what I had gotten used to with reddit.

    However, lemmy is constantly changing and updating, so it’s reasonable to expect the dev to keep up with changes.
