Oh most def.

I guess I'm complaining that it isn't already there, but honestly I love Dockge. Won't be going back to Portainer. Pretty much since the beginning I've been using compose files, and it always bugged me how Portainer handled them.

Dockge is what I've always wanted, tbh. Just some QoL stuff here and there, but I'm very happy with it :)

Yeah that's usually what I do on a computer. But I didn't have easy access to a computer, so I manage my server from my phone. So ssh is usually easier lol

Agreed. Really annoying.

I love Dockge. Have also replaced Portainer with it.

But I hate that I can't just restart a single container easily with it. It's a small enough issue since most of the time I need to restart the entire compose file because of dependencies, but still.

I've tried, but I wasn't able to get it working. I'll look into it again though, cuz I'd love to do it all through NPM.

I agree, very beginner friendly. But also, it's what most people are gonna need.

I actually started with Traefik because I didn't know any better, and I kinda wanna go back to be honest because with Traefik I was able to configure a Minecraft server, without having to expose the port. But not with NGINX Proxy Manager.l, since it only does http and shit. But I REALLY like being able to do everything via a webUI since I only have a phone to manage my server .

So, I find myself stuck between functionality and ease of use. :(

You know what, yeah, completely fair.

If you don't mind me asking, what apps are, in your opinion, as good as Sync? (Removing the ads, and payment and shit out of the debate).

I've used Thunder, Jerboa, Connect, LiftOff, and maybe another that I can't recall. Last time I used each of them, they were nowhere near the level of Polish that Sync has. That being said, it has been a while because once the Sync alpha launched, I exclusively used Sync for browsing and Connect for posting. They might have changed and been updated, etc.

Couldn't agree more!

(I hope I don't come off as attacking you! I'm kinda just using your comment to piggyback and make my own haha)

It's closed source, as was his reddit version, so idk what anyone expected there. He also never said it was ever going to be open source. But I completely understand anyone who isn't willing to let go of their FOSS. FOSS is good for a reason! :)

I do understand the mindset that it goes against the fediverse, but I happen to disagree. In other threads, there's been discussion about how they are actively paying donations, patreons, paypal, etc to help fund their favorite instance or whatever else. That needs to happen to offset the cost. Especially if it is the instance owners hobby, and not full time job.

Well, what if we want a nice experience while using Lemmy? Sure, there's plenty of apps, but what if someone was able to dedicate their entire working hours to that app? To make it as good as possible? Well, then they'd need to make money somehow, right? Or they'd have to get a different job, and do the app as a hobby. This hurts the app, and then it just becomes another run of the middle Lemmy client.

I understand why people are upset. Lemmy is free. The fediverse is free. (Most of) the apps are free. But someone is paying for all of this, whether we realize it or not.

Matter of preference, really. I like a nice UI, smooth animations, clean aesthetic, etc. Sync provides that for me and more, so to me, it IS better than all the other apps. :)

It's the best UI currently :)

Perhaps I am biased, but I'd still like to point out some facts :)

Yes, it has ads. It also has options to remove them.

No, you can post. That's coming soon.

This app is also in its first beta release. It hasn't been officially launched yet. It just happened that a lot of people who were excited about Sync coming back drummed up a lot of hype for it when the beta finally launched, that we kicked off a massive news wave apparently.

Also, of the ones I've used, the fluidity of the app, the smoothness of it, and the polish (especially for a beta) is unmatched from the other Lemmy clients I've used (haven't used all of them, but I used a lot of them.)
