Anyone using the Sync for Lemmy app? I sure hope it starts supporting Kbin soon because it’s hands down the best Fediverse app already. It has only been out a week.

Unfortunately, being in Kbin this Magazine is not very viewable on it yet. Something to do with Kbin doing things differently - any ideas on what that means?

    Sincere thanks for the list. I listed Sync because I used that for years on Reddit, and I just consider it default. The updates were endless and free and the sheer quality of the app was notable.

    So API is the issue? How is it that Lemmy instances have an API - have the created their own? I am non-schooled in this - just not used to it because I have been on Reddit for years.

      Yup, the guys that make lemmy built an API fairly early on. It’s built in to lemmy itself, similar to the way reddit used to be.

      Kbin is newer, and hasn’t yet prioritized an API. They may have by now, but I’m not fond of the web version at all, so I don’t use it enough to keep track of where development is.
