Ratings and reviews

Glitchy. 1) the graphics don't always load so I have to use some other app to see the graphics; 2) once I responded to someone and my comment appeared under an entirely different comment; 3) twice my comments posted as someone else's comment with my username on it. When I refreshed the page, it fixed itself. But that was weird. And 4) After most recent update, your comments are not deleted until you manually delete it by erasing it and typing over it with a character or something.

As someone who usually only reviews apps when they suck, I needed to make an exception for Sync because it does, and I can't stress this enough, everything right. I have yet to find a single issue with the app (aside from the occasional bug, though they tend to get fixed reasonably quickly so I have no issue with that) and I've been using the app since back when it was a reddit client and it's always been great.

So far love it! I'd never used Sync for reddit, but I wanted to try new third party apps for Lemmy as I wasn't impressed with my current app, and happened to see that the Sync devs had reworked their app to function with Lemmy. My experience with Sync so far is wonderful. My only complaint: I'd like to be able to pay for a version that doesn't collect my data for sale to marketers. Sync is very clear and upfront about their data handling policy, but still I'd be willing to pay for more privacy.
