Not hating on open source, just let people use what fits their expectations and needs and stop deterring them with gatekeeping :P

    What is the benefit over the other options. All I’ve heard is the animations are smooth and liftoff seems smooth enough to me.

      Personally, the thing that the other apps don’t do right yet, is the layout on big screens. On a foldable or a tablet Sync looks way better than the rest and I have tried them almost all. Connect is the closest one on a regular phone.

      It has a ton of features and polish, and the UX is very good. Mainly that, value is subjective, but I’m willing to pay the dev for a good app.

      Multi windows, ability to cache comments are the biggest ones at least for me. Imagine desktop class multi tasking and not having your comments/posts reload because you were low on ram,etc. Smoothness is subject and I find other clients like Jerboa more smoother overall.

        Multi window sounds neat, haven’t had issues with ram yet. I always get a flagship device and use it till I don’t get security patches anymore or until my device slows down too much.
