I did a poll and nearly 30% of the people who voted said they used Sync! It's stayed around that percent the whole time too!

EDIT: Here is the poll I forgot to put this here like five times lol https://strawpoll.com/wby5A21R1yA

I've got several of these installed and I keep finding myself using liftoff. It's not perfect, but it let's me combine my subscriptions from several accounts into one view. I like that a lot & don't see that option in the other apps.

Oh I liked Liftoff and didn't even know it had that! I'll have to check that out!

Anything in particular you like about liftoff?

Seeing as you're asking this all over the thread, I have a feature request: can we get poll embed? Assuming strawpoll has an API (or if it's possible on the client side without an API or much of a performance hit)

It allows me to browse an everything feed from multiple accounts.

Therefore for example I could get my beehaw communities in my feed with this account's too and when I open a post to comment it just pulls and submits from the appropriate account.

So for example if it was a submission from lemmy.world it would be pulled from my sh.itjust.works account and would submit my comments from there but a beehaw post would do the same from my Beehaw account without having to actually manually switch between accounts.

I'm not explaining it well. Just get an alt account that's defederated from lemmy.world and try for yourself.

The combining of subscriptions i s exactly why I like liftoff as well. Used a couple other clients, but Liftoff seemed the most stable and easy for me.
