The death of Sync for Reddit is what has made me join Lemmy
I barely use reddit anymore save for porn and niche subs but after that glorious app I had used for ages finally died a few days ago I felt devastated. it was like losing an old friend. I hope reddit dies an even slower and more painful death

Welcome! For me, it was Apollo (try WefWef). I love it here except for the server issues. All in due time.
Edit: I just tried all kinds of gestures for closing image preview, and apparently swiping up now works! The update today said something about this, so wefwef all the way for me. It also just added top day (and top hour!) the best app on all fronts so far.
Wefwef is the best in many respects - but the inability to press images to close them is almost a deal breaker for me. The back button takes me out of the feed and into the side bar, with the image still opened on top.
I'm not gonna press the x in the top right corner every single time, it's bad UX, my phone's too tall.
Connect for lemmy has this functionality right, it's just ugly looking in my phone (the images in the play store look so nice, I suspect it's a bug with my specific phone)
Looking forward to Sync - it showed me UI with UX I hadn't even considered requesting. Sync just got everything right for me.
I’m using wef wef now. I saw some bugs but I feel that eventually it would get better
Be sure to use different servers! Experiencing server issues (with your server or choice) is a pretty sure sign to spread out and try somewhere else.
Won’t I need to subscribe to all the channels all over again? It’s the main reason I haven’t.
Unfortunately yeah :(
There's an export type functionally to make it easier but the server needs to be functional in the first place.
More viable for new users who don't have an account yet or very few subscriptions.
