This finally got me in for reals. π€
No thanks, I used to use boost for reddit and I loved it.
But now on lemmy, there are FOSS apps that are just as good I'd rather donate to.
You can't change the primary background color outside of theme presets? That means I can't make it dark and pink, which is a deal breaker when I have such a gorgeous Sync theme going. I'll keep it downloaded, though. There were things I liked about it for reddit. I may come back around.

I'm brand new to Lemmy using boost now!
Welcome!
I wish it had swipe to up vote and downvote but other than that I love the aesthetics.
Thank shit lol. I'm a kbin guy so I'm still gonna wait a while for the kbin API to come out before I can use it with my main account, but at least its out and I can use it with a compatible one in the meantime! I left Sync for Boost (with Reddit lol) and I'm glad this is here now.
Hell yes! Been waiting for this
I love Boost, I bought it for Reddit. However, I got used to Connect now. The swipe to upvote and hide are intuitive to me now.
I was waiting for this app to release before I even signed up to be honest!

Has anyone figured out how to change the default feed? I'm not subscribed to any communities, so I always open to a blank page before switching to all.
Restore purchase feature needs to be added, couldn't "rebuy" it on a second device.
We ballin
I was a Boost for Reddir user, now I'm using wefwef. Works for me, not sure if I have a reason to go back to Boost.
the old app that still retains its old feature from Reddit that have been reborn and it is first Lemmy client that support widget. wow!!
I'm really happy with the interface to be honest, I was using Voyager up until now but Boost is my new go to!
First post from Boost for Lemmy! π
And thus begins my journey into lemmy
Best app. I want it on iPhone.
Blessing from the lords
I got used to liftoff where I could have up vote and down vote arrows on the right, so it's disappointing that I can't seem to find that option here on boost. don't feel like reaching for those vote buttons, otherwise I haven't noticed any remarkable differences from liftoff
