Whether you used Sync or not, we could all use more app competition in this space.

If it becomes available for Kbin that would be wonderful...

[–] Mudz@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm assuming it'll be compatible with the fediverse just like kbin+lemmy are compatible

[–] yungsinatra@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

The problem is, from what I know, that there's no full API documentation for Kbin available yet, so an app for Kbin is not possible to make now. Yeah, the option would be to create it for Lemmy and then just federate with Kbin.

I'd be 100% down to buy Sync pro again for a Kbin Sync.

[–] corm@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Same!

[–] Eggyhead@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For those wondering, there’s an app for Kbin in the works called Artemis.

When I search for it in the kbin subreddit, it looks like the post is deleted. Do you have a link? Very interested

Wow that would be amazing. I loved Sync. I just hope a toxic community doesn't drive him away again.

[–] tookmyname@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Is Lemmy toxic? I feel like all its shortcomings it’s far from toxic.

[–] DarkThoughts@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not a fan of Sync, but if they'd also support kbin I'd probably still use it due to the lack of any alternatives.

[–] Frostcoins@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly out of all the android apps sync was the best one. I tried Boost, RedditIsFun,koala and a bunch more but sync had the best extra features and look.

[–] Zednix@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Sync was my go to, it would be great if they came over

[–] hyperspace@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'd pay again, but only if the app itself is FOSS. Imagine using a proprietary app to browse a FOSS service...
