Just pre-registered. Boost for Lemmy would be awesome

Awesome, used to use the reddit version and really liked it, switched from the official app and never looked back. Excited to try it out when it releases (also this is my first comment on lemmy, been lurking for a week or so but I think it's time I start interacting)

Yes! Boost was my favorite.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

This makes me so happy! I've been maining boost for almost six years now and was so bummed when the dev announced he wasn't going to be working on a Lemmy app. Looks like he changed his mind!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Fantastic news. This'll really scratch the itch.

I never used Boost for Reddit, but with this many people singing it's praises... ***BOOST FOR LEMMY, LET'S GOOO! *** Sorry, Connect. You're still cool tho

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

Boost for Reddit wasn't, so I would expect the same here.

Can't wait. Boost is my most used app on Android and this will be great.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This is a game changer

[–] Thoxy 5 points 1 year ago

I have used Boost for so many time before I Switch to Joey but maybe the time use this app again.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This is most excellent news. 😀

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

great news not just for lemmy but all of the fediverse

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Now time for apollo haha Although wefwef is already brilliant

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I saw that "subreddit" was changed to "communties" in the app recently so I was quite certain that a version for Lemmy is being at least experimented with.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I will launch that 🚀 as soon as the app is available. Pre-registration is done, let's goooooooo.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It looks amazing on the preview images.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Yessss I had all but given up hope. There is a god.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

LONG LIVE THE KING

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Fuck yeah. Let's go.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Anyone use both sync and boost? I had used RIF so trying to get a feel for how each had worked before leaning towards one

This was my fav reddit app. Used it for years. Very excited!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Most excellent, cannot wait!!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I am thrilled, Boost has been the best Reddit experience for me since I stopped loving Bsconreader. I don't even remember what my problem with it was, I think it was crashing or.... something, haha.

Boost ended up being a UI I preferred significantly, and I never looked back! This is gonna be FANTASTIC, where do I throw my money?!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I'm so excited for this!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I fucking knew it, in one of the last updates in the menu it went from "find subreddit" to "find community"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (4 children)

How does this compare to liftoff?

Been enjoying that quite a bit

This is awesome news. Preferred Boost over Sync/Relay/Rif etc.
