      There are countless of QOL features. You can customise all the app’s colours, there’s a bunch of different view types for posts and you can set default views per community, you can favourite communities, select and copy on a comment, search through comments, highlight comments of the same user, … and much more! Most importantly there are a ton of settings you can toggle. If you can see it you can likely tweak it or hide it. It takes a while to change everything to your liking, but I think it’s worth it.

    The only downside for me is the ad trackers. If those get disabled when we pay for no ads, then it would be perfect

    Not saying that doesn’t happen, I just don’t know…

      Something I wish back on Boost for Reddit was a separate free app and a paid separate app without ads and trackers, but it’s something Google apparently doesn’t allow anymore. Reddit is fun was able to have reddit is fun gold because they had the separate app before the rules went into affect.

    I use Sync at the moment. Is there anything Boost offers over Sync that would be worth switching over for? Always looking for a better experience when possible

      I was mostly using sync while waiting for boost to get a Lemmy port, and could make sync to look and feel pretty close to boost for reddit. I had a rather pleasant experience with sync overall. Both are pretty similar out of the box, very configurable and very polished, but now that boost for Lemmy is out, I’m back on boost. Not that boost has a killer feature that sync’s missing, just that I find boost subjectively better.
