I’m honestly surprised, but Lemmy 1.0 is closer and closer. I’m using it, 'till it works.
Sync for Lemmy
I already made this post a year ago, and indeed: Sync has been left to die, and we have been scammed.
Please give Sync a bad rating so unsuspecting users don’t use, or even worse buy, an abandoned app.

Sometimes picture will show with the error on top of it, sometimes it won’t show at all, just the error.
Is this app dead?
Having a little anxiety here because this is by far the best app. I purchased a lifetime Ultra membership and it wasn’t until I replaced my phone and couldn’t restore it, did I find out the developer hasn’t updated or posted in 2 years. (Somehow the Ultra got restored a couple days later).
I really hope the dev continued this, or issues a statement regarding the status. I also would pay for a version for Reddit (yeah I know, I just can’t quit that completely yet)
Edit: thanks for the responses. So far, Voyager seems to be the closest to Sync and best alternative for me. Really sucks the dev just abandon this.
Trying to log in to my account here on lemmy.zip. I input the correct login details and I get a banner at the bottom that says “Invalid login”.
I’ve successfully tested the credentials on lemmy.zip itself, and also Boost (which I’m using now). Both work fine.
Any idea what this issue could be? Love the look of Sync so will be disappointed if I can’t use it :(

Evening all.
I’ve created a status page to monitor all services I maintain to run Sync for Lemmy.
There’s not too many at the moment but will keep updating as I create new APIs etc.
Cheers, Lj
Upcoming releases
Hey everyone.]
So update 98/99 has gone live which fixes the crashes (thanks for the reports).
I’m gearing up for a pretty sizable release but just wanted to check in and ask if there was any issues you’re having that I should know about or any new feature requests.
Sorry for the bad comms but I’m making my way through lots of messages and posts on here. Thanks for the patience as I get through these all.
Cheers, Lj
