Honestly, jerboa and liftoff are painful to use after switching off Sync. Looking forward to the new release of Sync.

Connect is pretty damn good, and I have no qualms about having to depend on it for the next several weeks. Too bad for it that my loyalties lie elsewhere.

If Connect and Jerboa had a baby it would be perfect.

I'm waiting for Boost, however. I can't wait for a familiar UI with all of the features I consider must haves.

This is how I feel

I'm a sync fanboy too, but It's a little bit not cool to praise one project by shitting on another, considering jerboa is FOSS and sync is not.

Comparing is not shitting on.

I'm a fan of FOSS too, but you just can't argue that Jerboa isn't more than a little rough around the edges.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It being FOSS does not instantly make it higher quality.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I can't disagree but as an open source maintainer I kinda feel bad anytime I ever say bad things about an open source project.

The best one for me so far has been Thunder - so easy to use with a sleek UI. Compatible with both iOS & Android.There are obviously some missing features, but it's pretty good for a beta version app.

Thunder, Jerboa, Connect - they all evolved a lot in the past few weeks.
