The developer of Sync for Reddit is working on a Lemmy app
Reddit - Dive into anything
New subreddit talking about it here. I'm assuming it will eventually be a Lemmy community

How's Sync compared to Reddit Is Fun? I've never used the former
Sync was my favorite reddit app personally, its not the most similar to RIF though. As far as I understand RIF was more like old.reddit.com. Sync utilizes a lot of modern UI choices but the layout has always been really nice and has had amazing customization
Not like RIF, more modern space wasting with the 'card' approach. Although I'm not sure about customisation, I just remember trying it and it had the same design 'flaws' every other had until I stumbled into RIF, which was perfect.
Would love a RIF-like app.
That is pretty good to be fair, I'd settle for that, but RIF's compact is still superior for me.
Kind of a wash - I've always been a RiF devotee. I might have rejected Sync if it wasn't compact enough, or I didn't realize it could be set that way - I've always placed a premium on cramming the most info onto a screen as I can. Which is why I was drawn to /. and then reddit, and can't stand FB etc.
Yep, used compact view the whole time I used sync and it was perfect! chef's kiss
Sync was very big on customizability, so it did have the options to make your view incredibly compact as well. By default, it was always set to follow very closely with Google's design language, but you could get something very similar to the density of RIF as well.
