I was looking forward to trying Sync today now that it’s live, but my enthusiasm was immediately dampened after seeing the “Data Safety” section on the Google Play store.

Liftoff has been great, and want to say thanks for making an awesome app. This will continue to be my daily driver.


Edit: for clarity, because the post got way bigger than I expected.

Sync looks like a fantastic app, and the dev/s should charge whatever they feel is fair for their efforts, even if that’s through the usual ads + ad tracking.

My intent was just to post here in /c/Liftoff to thank the Liftoff devs for managing to somehow offer an awesome app without any of that.

    Sync and connect both have block instance options.

    BTW if you have blocked communities, that is account level and will travel with you when you install one of the other apps.

    I’m pretty sure instance locking is app based and not tied to your account.

      Hm… not sure whether it’s app or account based, I think Mastodon has it as account based… or does it? 🤔
