I’ve noticed my battery hasn’t drained nearly as fast while using Sync compared to other Lemmy apps. Has anyone else had the same experience?

    No but it wouldn’t surprise me.

    As much as I like the Jerboa and Liftoff apps, the ones I have used other than sync, They’re laggy on my pixel 7 where sync is butter smooth. Means to me they’re likely acting inefficiently somehow.

      Jerboa is laggy on your Pixel 7? it’s perfectly smooth for me on my Pixel 5.

        Yeah, i’m not the only one. It stutters when scrolling or loading into a post. Sync doesn’t do that at all.

    Huh, I think you’re right. My battery has been holding up better recently, and that may very well be why.

      I was using jeroba and I have noticed a significant change in battery use since switching to sync. I dont have receipts or anything, so take it as you will.

      After you deep-throat the Dev and swear financial allegiance for all eternity, it’s important you justify your bad decision to the world without providing any metrics whatsoever whilst comparing it side by side with shitty web apps that constantly auto update for no reason.

      Infinity APK is free, already available and as it stands right now, far more feature complete than sync.

      These people are the worst byproducts of capitalism gone wrong. They’re actually proud of being dommed.
