I'm sure it's nothing personal. For instance, I've been using Sync for reddit for over 10 years as my primary method of accessing reddit, so I know this is going to make me a lot more comfortable using Lemmy.
Yes! Meant nothing towards the Liftoff devs, it's the best app I've used for Lemmy. I had been using Sync for about the same amount of time and loved everything about it
but the devs of these popular reddit apps likely have recycled a tonnn of their reddit app's code into the Lemmy app and and are therefore working with a much more mature codebase that they're also much more comfortable with. for example, I'm loving liftoff but it has so many random bugs that, while not awful, are a bit jarring. and the vast majority of them aren't Lemmy bugs, they're just normal app bugs that haven't been worked out yet. and while I'm sure the liftoff devs are great, it's a new app and will experience growing pains that sync likely won't deal with as much.
I love liftoff but this is like going back home
Nah I'll stay with liftoff. Never used sync.. came from baconreader and liftoff has the same vibe.
