    Sync just seems to work.

    And that is why I’ve used it for all these years. There are no weird quirks, it just does exactly what I need it to do.

      There are definitely weird quirks, I’ve only had it installed for 10 minutes and have already found this one when comments are sorted by top.

      It appears if a reply is voted higher than it’s parent comment then it will appear above it instead of under it. Quite annoying. Hopefully it gets worked out soon.

      Sync has by far the highest customization which I love, and will happily pay the $20 for the ad-free version when the kinks are worked out. Although, Jerboa is a close second, and if they put in a default comment sorting option, I might just stick with it as it’s FOSS.

        I’m not sure what I’m looking at in your screenshot. Everything looks fine and normal to me.

        I am also willing to give the app the benefit of the doubt because it is still in beta and has been available for less than 24 hours so far.

            I noticed that, this happens when I set comment sort to Top. Works fine when set to Hot. Still in beta, they’ll hopefully fix it.

            Thanks, that makes it a little more clear. Seems like that might be something more than comments out of order, though. At least as far as I could tell the hierarchy of post times appears correct, it’s just not showing everything.

              It’s putting child comments that have higher upvotes above the parent comments. So it seems to be sorting strictly by upvote without taking into account hierarchy. A child comment shouldn’t appear above the parent comment like it is doing.

            Had that one as well. Makes reading posts with many comments almost impossible. Let’s hope it gets fixed soon.

        I think they meant the old Sync. This one is in beta and bugs are still expected.
