I'm asking new joiners because I know it can be confusing at first to see issues with content discoverability, instances unavailability, people migrating accounts, etc.

One thing that I've really enjoyed about Sync is how good it is at restoring its own state. I don't think I can ever remember a time where I went back to open Sync, and it wasn't where I expected it to be.

I swear it also just seems to know when its a good time to actually reset its state, and take me back to the home screen. Logically I know that Sync doesn't have machine learning capabilities built-in to "guestimate" this and is probably just a state-cache invalidation timer (or something along those lines)... but it certainly does feel like some dark magic!

    Yeah that's what I mean, legit when I'm using Connect for Lemmy I just swipe to another app to respond a message and go back to Connect and all is gone lol, and this shit is worse because I have connect to hide read posts so yeah, it is a funny quest to find the post I was before.

    This isn't specifically of connect though, I'd say it happens to all the Lemmy apps but Sync and maybe Voyager.
