The date of every build is the version number
I’m loving Connect for Lemmy right now, but certainly curious to see how this turns out! Sync was my go-to app for Reddit.
Thanks for the suggestion - Liftoff/else we’re great, Connect is outstanding until we get Sync.
Connect is absolutely incredible. I can’t believe how quickly the developer is massively improving the app.
It is already pretty great. The one thing that annoyed me enough to stop using it (for now) is that it displays two refreshing spinner animations whenever you pull down to refresh the feed. It’s a small thing, but it irked me enough to just stick to using the mobile app for a bit longer.UPDATE: Nevermind, it looks like this was fixed in a recent update. I’m back on Connect now, and it’s pretty great. Probably the best Android app for Lemmy right now.
Is connect open source?
They seem to be updating quite a bit lately. The latest update really made the experience 10x better with easier to read cards. Android btw
I’ve been swapping between jerboa and connect a lot. I like jerboas interface a bit more but connect is way more stable
Asked this in another thread but I’ll ask here as well.
I was a Relay users. One of the things I liked is that it would open a lot of things in overlay windows. Like youtube videos and such. Basically it had handlers for lots of file types and websites. Did sync do anything like that?
Yes, it did. It had native handlers for YouTube, imgur/etc. If the native handler had an issue (e.g. YouTube blocked it unless it was in YouTube’s player) then you could break out to an internal or external browser.
Thank you. Then for lack of Relay this is my great hope.
I was a relay user for a good while but I switched to sync after I saw just how feature rich it was. I think you will be happy with sync if you liked relay. Hopefully it will be nearly the same experience for lemmy!
