It's so funny. I have bounced between Boost and Sync for years. I really love them both. I think I tend to gravitate to boost for more graphical or visual subs, and I like Sync for commenting or reading more text focused content. I have paid for pro lifetime on both. I miss them, and am excited that Sync is trying to make the jump.

Has the Boost dev(Ruben?) Officially said the app is shutting down? Ppl keep saying it, but I haven't seen an official post or announcement. Reddit keeps saying "we are still working with some devs"...

Sounds like wall street :)

Thanks! So stoked!

A couple interesting options: Good Job Brain - always an interesting listen. They deep dive into different topics from a trivia standpoint.. super interesting.

Behind the Bastards - looks at bad people throughout history.

Source? I was all in on Sync and this would make my day. Did he post something about it?

I used the website stumbleupon.com. I used to waste hours on that site and just shuffle websites within my interests. It was a good way to find new websites to frequent.

The fiasco has broke google results since the protest...I am not sure Google is going to keep prioritizing those results of it ends in a poor user experience.

I was on board during reddits first year. I deleted my apps the moment sync announced it was ending service. I don't intend to go back - this post was just moreso me trying to see if this option would have been the "right" way to handle things.

Users that likely will never see an ad of they only use the 3rd party app

I am really working on making Lemmy work. It's slowly getting there for me...learning curves. I just miss the subreddits I had for my niche hobbies. It really bums me out.

But that is exactly the problem with third party apps ..they don't show ads so they make no add revenue on people using apps like Sync and Apollo or RIF.. The official app does. I understand why they are trying to push people to their app, but the route they took was worst case scenario.
