Perhaps I am biased, but I’d still like to point out some facts :)
Yes, it has ads. It also has options to remove them.
No, you can post. That’s coming soon.
This app is also in its first beta release. It hasn’t been officially launched yet. It just happened that a lot of people who were excited about Sync coming back drummed up a lot of hype for it when the beta finally launched, that we kicked off a massive news wave apparently.
Also, of the ones I’ve used, the fluidity of the app, the smoothness of it, and the polish (especially for a beta) is unmatched from the other Lemmy clients I’ve used (haven’t used all of them, but I used a lot of them.)
If you don’t mind me asking, what apps are, in your opinion, as good as Sync? (Removing the ads, and payment and shit out of the debate).
I’ve used Thunder, Jerboa, Connect, LiftOff, and maybe another that I can’t recall. Last time I used each of them, they were nowhere near the level of Polish that Sync has. That being said, it has been a while because once the Sync alpha launched, I exclusively used Sync for browsing and Connect for posting. They might have changed and been updated, etc.
When did you last use jerboa? The quality of experience has gone way up with a huge number of new contributors. I used RIF for years and at first jerboa was way less polished but today I think it is better than RIF ever was.
I heard it has ads and you can’t post. Some people are a little too loyal

There’s a lot of opinion in that last paragraph that a lot of vocal sync users don’t seem inclined to see.
It’s equally fine that you like it and I don’t.
You know what, yeah, completely fair.

You have been able to post since it was released…
