I'm new to Lemmy and I am using Sync for Lemmy but so far none of my comments are showing up. I'm attempting to comment from my browser this time and I hope it works.
Edit: my comments seem to be showing in browser but not via Sync for Lemmy. Can someone recommend different Lemmy app?
Edit: you guys are great, I uninstalled and restarted and now my comments are showing up along with all your replies that just popped up at once!
You can 100% comment from Sync.
Source: This comment.
Why have you posted a blank comment?
I use Jerboa. It does crash for me on ocassion though.
No issues with sync. Using right now
I'm trying Sync right now and it works ok for me. I find Connect and Voyager the best Lemmy apps right now.
Connect would be my recommendation, surprised I haven't seen it mentioned here. It works well, and is pretty close to what the Reddit apps felt like
Jebora is aight, but lacks polish. I don't think yo ucan comment from sync yet... I got a "feature coming soon" or something when I did. I think this might also work on infinity for lemmy.
Edit: You can't post links to communities with sync yet
I don't know why people like you and me initially think it's spelled "Jeb-ora" when it's actually "Jer-boa"
lol I've been calling it Jer-oba. I don't know how I got here, I can't even read. 😮💨
Come on my illiterate friends let's have some fun with jemboria!
Jerm
Haha 🤣 same
Did you know the Jerboa is the same creature that Muaddib is named after? Qul-wahad!
😂 my bad... It's a weird name
Just commented this from sync
What he obviously meant, but phrased incorrectly: you can't create new posts from Sync. You should be able to comment on existing posts, though (doing it right now)
Edited my parent comment
Jeroba 🐁
I was having the same issues you are with posts being seen on browser side but I couldn't see my posts in either connect or sync.
They showed up later on tho and people were voting and responding to them in meantime. So I think it's probably just a server or api issue and not app related since for me at least the issue was consistent across apps
I also cant comment from sync. It shows error.
What does it say?
Sync is generally working for me, but I find it depends on server. Lemmy.world seems to withhold my posts.
Voyager is exactly like Apollo for reddit.
Liftoff probably looks most similar to Sync
Testing
My comments are appearing, but I usually have to refresh the post. I hope it's something that jldawson can fix on the app's side.
