With the ad adjustment came these banner ads on the top of comment sections and they are atrocious so much so I don't bother reading comments anymore. They all have the obnoxious white backgrounds and they flicker since they move. It feels light no matter my phones britness they are blinding and since content doesnt get loads of comments the banner is just distracting while reading. I'm on board with ads as I haven't paid to remove but this specific style changes how I'm using sync now.

arent they already selling our data? at least the settings page seems to suggest it.

anyone can suggest a good FOSS app thats polished like sync?

I just switched to Voyager, it's pretty good so far.

How does it compare to boost?

[โ€“] madnerds@midwest.social 1 points 8 months ago

I've not tried boost, but Voyager has a pwa, just try it for yourself if you're curious.

Jerboa user here. It's functional, though I still open sync whenever I want to search the platform for something. I haven't been a fan of most updates (dev likes to change how votes are displayed without giving users the option to revert) but overall I like it

Same here. I like Jerboa but it drives me nuts with the new way votes are displayed. I gotta calculate how much upvotes a post/comment has.
