Well this was 8 months ago.

Still outstanding on Github

I assume the numbers never made business sense for them to continue development.
I guess so.
I was sorta waiting for Sync to become more fully featured before committing to an ad-free purchase, but I guess I should start looking for other clients again.
I use Jerboa out of habit because it's the first one I downloaded that more or less worked that also had the coloured bars down the side of the comments so I could keep track of what level of the comment thread Im looking at.
Heard good things about Thunder though.
Does it also have coloured usernames?
Back when I was still on Reddit I used Joey which, if a user commented more than once in a thread, their username would get the colour of the first "level" on subsequent replies. Any other username, including first comment, would be white/black (depending on night mode).
I've missed that feature on all alternative Reddit, and now Lemmy, clients I've tried.
