lemmy was "spammed" with comments about sync for lemmy.

Thunder works on my graphenos pixel without problems. No bugs, nothing. It works as intended. I can write and edit posts. It looks very polished. It's beautiful, it's material you.

I don't get why people "freak out" about sync. I could freak about thunder! Thank you for writing the app!

As a current Thunder and previous Syncfor Reddit user, I can understand Sync's charm.

It's a lot polished, the most polished Lemmy client right now. There's absolutely no lag with weird config (e.g. link preview for Thunder), hell lot of customisation, ability to backup and restore settings, ability to parse virtually any links within Sync and even provide download option, etc.

Sunc benefits from using same old codebase with backend tweaking to Lemmy.

Thunder will ultimately catch up to that, but saying Thunder is current state is perfect and matches up with Sync in features is big hyperbole.

Where did OP say that? They very clearly state that their needs for a client are pretty basic.

If we're being pedantic, then OP didn't even mention that their needs are basic. They only mentioned they can write and post, which doesn't say much.

But they did mention that it's polished with no bugs, which is not true. They talked about the material You design which again is basic in Thunder and exhaustive in Sync.

And finally they mentioned Thunder being perfect which it isn't and it's improving by every release.

Clearly with direct comparison, it lags against Sync in every department and only that's what I mentioned in my post.

I can't believe I read all that thinking you might actually tell me where OP said, or even implied, that Thunder
