This is what finally made me create a Lemmy account.

[-] theyseemeroland@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago

Seriously, same here. Can't wait for this to release.

[-] PicnicLife@reddthat.com 10 points 1 year ago

Same! Let's goooooo!

[-] mikestevens@lemmy.world 38 points 1 year ago

Great news. I'm probably more likely to use Sync, but seeing not one but two well regarded Android Reddit apps migrate to Lemmy is just bloody awesome.

The developer has just announced that Relay will continue to function and will switch to a subscription model, so there probably won't be a Relay for Lemmy, unfortunately :(

Reddit user for over 10 years, here for good. I was a long time Sync user and at some point I switched to Boost and I'm not sure why because I also purchased Sync Pro at some point. My two favorite Android apps being developed to work with Lemmy made me create a new account here and I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes.

Register for the download if you will use it, this will show support to Mayayo!

[-] OrdinaryAC@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

I paid for Boost premium for Reddit a long time ago and will do it again just to support it here.

Between Boost and Sync, Lemmy is emerging as a promising option because there's going to be multiple strong 3rd party apps to engage with.

[-] Bosa@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Yes this is great! Between this and wefwef which is Apollo lookalike right now for iOS ppl this is great! Just need everyone over to Lemmy now but that'll prob take decades

This damn near brought a tear to my eye. I no longer miss reddit at all.

[-] ATalkingPenguin@infosec.pub 9 points 1 year ago

Never knew pre-registration for apps was a thing. Signed up for this one, looking forward to giving it a go

As a long term user of Boost for reddit, I'm so hyped by this now!!!!

[-] gtfomyinterweb@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

It's the reason I finally decided to create a Lemmy account. Been a Boost user for many years.

[-] FarLine99@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

Kudos to developer!

[-] majere@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

I'm in! Unless rif goes to lif, in which case cheers all around :)

[-] Heldenhirn@lemmy.fmhy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

Boost wasn't just my favorite Reddit app but my favorite App in general. I love the clean design so much. When the Lemmy App is released I will launch the Rocket to the Moon

[-] MegaUltraChicken@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Fuck yes. Boost was my favorite reddit app.

I do get the “distributed” nature of networks and the underlying philosophy, but only if there’s a common interface where lemmy/mastodon or other similar network created accounts can be used seamlessly in addition to the current behavior.

[-] rustytree@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Yes! Boost was my favorite.

[-] imugetsu@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Avid Boost user rejoice!!! Let's go boissss

[-] chico21rico@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Hell yeah, Boost rules

[-] chug@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Boost was my most used app for several years. Really excited for this and to see the Fediverse grow.

[-] cirkuitbreaker@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

Preregistered.

[-] n7gifmdn@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

This will actually make lemmy usable on mobile for me! I've been using boost for years, and I really can't wait.

[-] jsalvador@programming.dev 6 points 1 year ago

OMG, cannot wait for this.

[-] required@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Just pre-registered. Boost for Lemmy would be awesome

I thought Rubén said he was going to move onto smaller apps instead of making a Lemmy app?

Regardless, I'm glad this is happening!

[-] Paws@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I'm sure I read that as well. Hopefully he's had a think and decided that a Lemmy app would be really worthwhile. Excited to see what he creates, as I've used Boost for years and thought it was awesome.

[-] Majeed@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Nice! Really hoping BaconReader follows suit soon as well 👍🏻
