Recently hopped over to Lemmy from Reddit, initially tried Boost and the web app and wasn’t super happy with the experience however after installing Singing I can happily say the experience has improved vastly. It feels more promising and premium than the actual official Reddit app!
I’m pretty sure “show short scores” is meant to abbreviate larger vote totals. So for example, if a post has 1234 points, Sync will abbreviate it to 1.2k.
That makes sense!
