Ah, found it now, thanks! I guess because swiping anywhere by default just went to the next post, I didn't expect it to have an option for swiping the comments too.
I tried Infinity too, while I miss swiping to upvote and reply to comments, the swipe to move between previous/next posts was interesting, so I'll have to test it more to see if I like it!
After Sync released I tried even more other Lemmy clients because of all the other recommendations in the Sync discussion threads, and there are definitely a lot of great Lemmy apps.
But as an old Sync (for Reddit) user myself I also get the feeling of familiarity using the Sync Lemmy app, with the customizability to even adjust what each "step" of the swiping gestures does, while using other Lemmy apps I mostly feel like I'm locked to "getting used to the app". So I understand why some people are so happy to use Sync again.
That being said I do agree that it feels expensive to pay even for ad-less, and people may not like that the free version has ads. Probably I will probably pay just for ad-less (not Ultra) once I have figured out if I like any of the other Lemmy apps better (or not.)
Out of the Lemmy apps I tried out, Voyager is the app I used the most, and it is definitely a great app! But I did miss the smoothness and customisability of Sync, so I will most likely use that on my phone from now on.
As much as I like Voyager, I do feel like there is some slowdowns/stuttering and feeling of the GUI not always doing what I intended to do. Not a lot, but enough to sit in the back of my mind.
That being said I'm still using Voyager on the iPad and also in the browser on my PC! (Which reminds me that I should try installing the Voyager app from the iPad app store, maybe that'll actually fix the occassional slowdowns.)
Yeah they are empty on my phone too, and I've never used any DNS-adblocking on my home network. I suspect it might be because whatever ad system Sync uses currently just doesn't have any ads for my country, but I don't actually know.
Help, my ads are broken, it's just a blank box with the text "Sponsored content", is it just because the app is still in beta? I don't have any adblocking installed on my phone lol
Oh well I may buy lifetime once that is available anyhows.
I'm not young either but I guess that's just emoji speak for "puppy eyes"? Although I've only seen it used in memes so I have no idea if kids are actually using it in messaging unironically...
I read some interview about how they had to "nerf" the headcrabs by making them latch on to your chest instead of actually your face because it was too intense for VR, haha
On my Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 I also noticed it takes a second or so after tapping before the animation even starts. It's not unbearable or anything, but it's enough to make me think that I missed the button and try tapping again sometimes.
Honestly at this point if that happens often enough and drives even more "regular" redditors away from reddit (and hopefully to Lemmy), I'm all for it.
