I tried basically every app going on Android and they are all either buggy as fuck, unintuitive or janky in some other way. The user experience was just horrible.
I really do not understand all the people claiming Sync has an equivalent. It just does not right now in terms of a polished user experience.
Honestly it's just Linux vs Windows kinda situation to me. No matter how many nerds tell me Linux can do everything the same and is more customisable and better, it's just a worse user experience. Windows is far more intuitive and polished and there is a reason it has the market share it does.
Yeah, but I'm using Sync exactly because I'm using Linux lol. Much more convenient and polished, and there's no such thing as intuitive UI, there's only UI you got used to.
Funny comparison to make considering that these are Android apps, running on the Linux kernel.
I really wanted to stick with voyager, but just switching between inbox and posts was just a crap shoot. Sometimes it would switch, sometimes it was acting as a back button... Then you'd lose your scroll position in posts... Just very alpha feeling
That said I hope they keep going! Competition is always good!
