Boost works fine
Left Sync for it, temporarily, until Sync is back to updating. It's been like this back in the Reddit years too.

I remember boost taking it's sweet time. But sync always updated more regularly.
ljdawson was always gone for months back in the day. A year is a long time, but I'm not that surprised. The only reason it's a problem is because, unlike Reddit, Lemmy isn't really stable.
Both Sync and Boost are stable apps, so to speak. But it is a problem when the site itself gets a lot of stuff updated. The app devs need to sort their schedule out tbh.
Raccoon is also nice.
I have been testing it as well. From what I have seen it's still in the beta stage.
Voyager has been good. They just implemented a custom emoji fix to that ensures emoji are the correct size regardless of their uploaded size.
I miss Liftoff
Never heard about it. What was so go about that client?
It was the app most like reddit if fun (rif). I liked it. To me it was the most intuitive layout.
I started with liftoff then moved to connect. Has all the stuff I was used to with RIF.
I was using Etehnity, but I had some issues with it and recently started using Raccoon instead, which has been pretty good.
I started with Voyager and eventually moved to Mlem, which has given me zero issues thus far
