Just want to say thank you to Connect dev Kuro for making Connect for Lemmy. Amidst all this hype for Sync and Boost, Connect remains ad- and subscription-free without compromising quality. This app is bomb and I won't be veering off to competitors anytime soon. Bonus points for being Canadian too! ๐Ÿ Thank you!

New to Lemmy and have just installed both apps (Connect and Sync). Can someone quickly and briefly list what makes Connect better in their opinion?

Connect dev here. Sync is a great app and I think the developer did a good job and it's benefitted a lot in terms of polish from being a Reddit app for years. I feel Connect is more or less at feature parity while being just over a month old. Maybe in terms of differences I would say Connect will never track you, doesn't include ads or data collection, and isn't a subscription service. But that's true for a number of open source Lemmy apps too and I also think Summit, Liftoff, and Thunder are really great choices too.

Thanks for being an awesome dev, I did use connect in the interim before Sync. I probably will still use connect to some extent for other accounts, and definitely recommend it as an option for those who don't wish to pay for an app.

10/10
