I used Sync. Sync went to Lemmy. I moved to Lemmy.
- Upvoting from my sync app.
  
  Up vote this if you also did! ☝️
  
  Downvoting from my sync app.
  
  Why would people do this? Seems kind of mean. I thought we were having fun together...
  
  Because you're just fishing for upvotes
  
  What? I'm telling everyone to up vote the other dude ffs.
  
  Sadly people are just stupid and cynical, but I see it dude 😎
  
  Thank you ❤️
  
  Sync downvote feature works great!
  
  Why, bro?
  
  It's meaningless anyway. What karma are you gonna farm?
  
  I'm telling everyone to up vote someone else, for fun. I try to be nice, you know, have some camaraderie, but everyone down votes me instead. Like, I thought we were different from Reddit, somehow. 😑 I don't care about karma, I care about the actions themselves, and it disappoints me.
  
  Sorry for this, seems like people misunderstood your comment
  
  Thank you for that. ❤️

  Oh, cool. That actually seems pretty chill. Fits the vibe I'm going for on this platform. It's what I was looking for on Reddit but was disappointed again and again.
  
  Maybe we'll bump into each other again one day. 🤝
  
  I mean in general upvotes or down votes are fairly meaningless on this platform.
  
  I know that, I just wanted to have some fun...
- Same, Sync was Reddit to me.
  
  Absolutely. Every other interface was trash.
  
  And the official app and web interface were a port-a-potty upturned into a flaming dumpster.

  Could you believe that there are some poor souls that just went straight to Reddit using that garbage app and didn't even make the effort to patch Sync?
  
  The patching never worked consistently for me, and after I bit I realized that Reddit wasn't a place I wanted to be anymore.
  
  The patch works fantastically for me, but I agree on the last part.
- Same. Except I moved before Sync on Lemmy was a thing so went with Jerboa. Then the prices for Sync came out (I had bought it for Reddit before and refused to have ads ever), and I just stayed with Jerboa.
- There are dozens of us!
- I used Sync for Reddit. I still do (Vanced patch) but I used to too.
- Yup
