I'm a sync guy but this news has me so excited. I will try Boost for Lemmy when it comes out and likely support it anyways.

I am thrilled, Boost has been the best Reddit experience for me since I stopped loving Bsconreader. I don't even remember what my problem with it was, I think it was crashing or.... something, haha.
Boost ended up being a UI I preferred significantly, and I never looked back! This is gonna be FANTASTIC, where do I throw my money?!
Awesome pawsome
I am really excited for this one . Always loved boost .
This is good news. Boost was my favorite until I switched to infinity.
Contains ads? Data shared with third parties? Not feeling it.
The paid version doesn't have ads. But yes I switched to infinity because it was FOSS. I also liked the ux better.

we're up for a treat folks!!
It‘ll be great to see that icon on my screen again! This is amazing!
I was so happy when I found this out. I hope Lemmy gets the support.
Nice
Test
It will be good feature wise, but privacy? 
Yeah seems pretty shady to me, I'll wait for a FOSS client for Lemmy. Maybe Infinity will come in clutch and make Infinity for Lemmy.

Where Apollo for Lemmy :(
Great news! Waiting for Boost and Sync
I love how a day ago he said he wasn't going to make an app and then changed his mind that quick. So damn excited!
Great news! I loved boost for reddit.
I still can't believe spez did this. And continues to do this. What a prick
Actually if this causes decentralized social media to get more popular we should be thankful lol

Wow.. I just uninstalled Boost after midnight. Looks like it will be back soon :)
Great news! Love seeing the Lemmyverse continue to expand!
I saw that "subreddit" was changed to "communties" in the app recently so I was quite certain that a version for Lemmy is being at least experimented with.
It looks amazing on the preview images.
You beauty!
I am incredibly happy to see this. Boost has been my absolutely favorite choice for a very long time
