    Sync and Connect are pretty similar, but I prefer Sync. I like its design a bit more, also it is more customizable and has more features I use: customization of sorting for every feed and subscription, option to hide nested comments by default, button showing parent comment without need to scroll up. Also it can track comment count changes.

    I think people are talking about Sync because it has ads and its pricing is too high.

      I started using sync a week and I don’t believe I’ve seen an ad. Also, it hasn’t asked me to pay to use it. Am I missing something?

        The ads depends on layout you choose. I’ve heard the ads aren’t compatible with every layout yet.

        Ad placeholders are displayed in the slide view. And Sync doesn’t ask to pay for using it. It just provides payed options in its settings.
