Last update was 6 months ago, Ruben was active a week and a month ago, so seems to still be alive at least.

Would be a shame, it has a lot going for it, even though the bugs are stacking up =/

Both Boost and Sync tend to get infrequent but large updates. Since the dev is still around, I don't think it's abandonned :)

I have been using it since da1, was using Boost for Reddit before. I still haven’t encountered a bug although I’m not a power user, hope it not gets abandoned because I didn’t find any app I liked, and checked like a dozen or so.

Might try Connect: [email protected]

I used Boost on Reddit and it was a great app.

I just stopped using Connect after I was unable to edit my posts any longer. I'm currently using Voyager. It's taking a little getting used to, but I'm not hating it.

Connect dev here, I'll check out what might be going on with Edit. Sorry!

More likely than not someone changed an API and stuff broke. It's been rock solid, but that had me abandoning ship.

I know how hard it is to maintain software - I've been doing it for over 40 years - so thank you!

Working fine for me, but I hope it isn't abandoned.

Most of them are. I'm still using eternity, but their last update was months ago.

Dev! Do not forsake us!
