Links not showing as read with latest version of Lemmy

sh.itjust.works Anyone else having trouble with links not showing as read? - sh.itjust.works

I’ve been using Sync for Lemmy for a year or so, but very recently (within the last day or so) links have stopped showing as read when I click on them and then go back. I tested this with a lemmy.world account and don’t have the same problem. I saw a post saying sh.itjust.works was updating to Lemmy...

Cross posting this from https://sh.itjust.works/post/25548740

There's an issue with posts not showing as read on newer instances of Lemmy.

Issue is documented here. https://github.com/laurencedawson/sync-for-lemmy/issues/539
I'm guessing this will become more of a problem once some of the big instances like lemmy.world upgrade to Lemmy 19.5.
- It's gotten so annoying I'll just stop using lemmy until it gets fixed
  
  I went back to Voyager, which is a shame because I really like Sync and pay for the premium version. But yeah, it's completely unusable right now.

Seems like it should be an easy fix for Sync for Lemmy to use post_ids instead of post_id.
In the meantime, I guess I'll poke around for an alternate Android client.
- I went back to Voyager for the time being. It's similar to Sync that it should do the trick until LJ hopefully sees the bug and gets a fix out.
