    Great news. I’m probably more likely to use Sync, but seeing not one but two well regarded Android Reddit apps migrate to Lemmy is just bloody awesome.

    Reddit user for over 10 years, here for good. I was a long time Sync user and at some point I switched to Boost and I’m not sure why because I also purchased Sync Pro at some point. My two favorite Android apps being developed to work with Lemmy made me create a new account here and I’m looking forward to seeing where this goes.

    I paid for Boost premium for Reddit a long time ago and will do it again just to support it here.

      Same. And when I saw they would be shutting down, I sent $10. Considering how often I used it, it was money well spent.

    Oh yeah, this is definitely hot! Shoot me up there into the endless fediverse! It’s time to discover all those niche galaxies riding a nice vessel!

      That is weirdly poetic. Sailing the sea of information to discover the pockets of humanity there have gathered together to scrape out an existence. Bound only by a common idea, they have formed their own home far away for the popular places others have settled.

      We are the explorers. Show us your culture, teach us your ways, and we’ll take the story back with us to spread word of the strange and new. We map the path as we walk it and light the way for those who follow.

      Your place is waiting for you.

      Saw the post about Apollo going offline and someone added the info for wefwef. Preregistered for Boost but so far wefwef is working great.

      Edit: meant to write Boost not Apollo.

          Sorry. I should clarify. I was reading a thread about Apollo going offline and Boost as an alternative so a preregisterd for Boost. I wouldn’t turn down an official Apollo app for Lemmy though.

            Ah, got it.

            I would love to see Christian port to Lemmy, just for the PR. There would be a lot of coverage if it happened, and the exodus would increase.

            I’m dying to see Huffmann eat a fat turd at IPO.

              Some said that they had read Christian acknowledging Lemmy and that he said if it maintains this kind of user growth, he might work on Apollo for Lemmy.

    Boost wasn’t just my favorite Reddit app but my favorite App in general. I love the clean design so much. When the Lemmy App is released I will launch the Rocket to the Moon
