Not sure if this has been mentioned anywhere, but importing your settings profile after you export/backup from reddit boost works.
I had an old backup exported from the old boost and just tried importing, and it works. Just shows how much of the backend is still the good ol’ boost.
This was the same for the other app, sync. Preferences were just about identical in both versions.
Thank you, I almost got used to the defaults because I couldn’t be arsed to setup my colors again.
It makes sense because the lemmy apps (except for jerboa) are forks of their reddit versions, so most of the code is the exact same.
Yup. I haven’t tested how much actually does carry over, but my layout for views and such did, so maybe other stuff did as well.
Is it out now? When I just checked, it still isn’t available
There are some posts about how to get it. It’s not directly searchable from the store yet. Have to click a link from the dev and then you get access.
