Just want to say thank you to Connect dev Kuro for making Connect for Lemmy. Amidst all this hype for Sync and Boost, Connect remains ad- and subscription-free without compromising quality. This app is bomb and I won't be veering off to competitors anytime soon. Bonus points for being Canadian too! ๐Ÿ Thank you!

I am really enjoying this app. You've done a great job providing frequent updates!

I thought I was going crazy. I downloaded Sync. It's fine, but I honestly prefer Connect still. Connect is just so damn good! It's smooth and set up great.

With connect can you block whole instances for example block all @lemmy.world?

I will be sticking with Connect he didn't try to overcharge his users.

Hello!

Does connect work with Kbin as well? I know it's kind of different from Lemmy.

Yeah! Thx so much for the best Lemmy app around!

This is a little off topic but I like Connect after 5 minutes of playing around with it... So... Is there a Mastodon browser that's equivalently good?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Fedilab is quite good, lots of customization features. You can get it from F-Droid.

If like how Connect looks you might like Megalodon. It's a fork of the official Mastodon app with a number of usability improvements and such, I've found it to be a well-balanced app in terms of features and usability/design. I haven't used Fedilab, but I've seen people recommend it before and I'd say it's worth a shot if you like lots of configuration options.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I've used both a lot. Megalodon for a smooth polished app with plenty of features. Fedlilab for every possible feature you could imagine and then 12 more than that, but less polished. I'm sticking with megalodon for now

Connect showed up in my first search when ditching Reddit. I see no reason to move to sync.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I used to use Sync for the other site, but despite all the hype for Sync for lemmy I don't feel the need to try it when Connect meets all my needs.

I've seen people using other apps wishing that their app had this feature or that feature. Well Connect already has that built in! Spread the good word, lemmings!

Right. Handed. Voting.
