Liftoff is a little better.
Second liftoff. Tried sync today and saw the "sponsored content" blocks and went right back to liftoff.
Haven't seen any ads on Sync, but I've only been using it for like an hour or 2 now.
I couldn't stand the other apps for Lemmy. They felt too disjointed. Plus coming from Sync for Reddit, I just get the same look and feel that I'd been using for years, so there's a definite bias.
Apparently Boost came to Lemmy too, so might give that a go too.
I should clarify. I didn't see any ads, just the blank block that said "sponsored content" so I don't think it's fully implemented yet.
I get people saying you can pay to get rid of them, but I'll wait until it's fully implemented to decide who I stick with / give money to.
That's weird, cause for me, it looks like sync pro when I scroll, there's absolutely no ad spaces or anything. Wonder if it's a bug or something.
