9 year user of Sync here. Was so sad to see it go, and can't wait for the Lemmy version! I'm using liftoff right now, and it's very nice.

We all know how shitty it was for Reddit to close the API, but had anyone else noticed how God -awful the Google search results are now? What the fuck with the "restricted/open in app" bullshit?!?!

Reddit can go suck a donkey
