I used Sync for about 10 years on Reddit. I really like the UI/UX, and I've grown accustomed to it. I've tried Jerboa, but it feels clunky and is missing features. I do like to support FOSS projects, but it's not like Sync is some big business. It's one guy who's built up a pretty good app, and he's generally well trusted in the community.

    Hey, use NextDNS. I use Sync too and I never see any ads.

    Edit: also use DuckDuckGo's app blocker that is built into their browser. It stops apps from calling home when they're not running. Sync is a grievous offender and tries to call home 300-1000 times per day when it isn't running.
