I have no idea, Boost has always been one to go long periods between updates, but it is getting pretty long since the last one

God I really hope its not dead. I know everyone suggests voyager but I don't like the gestures and it feels slower than just having buttons.

I use voyager and don't use any gestures. Looks like I turned them off in settings. And they have a ton of options for things you can adjust in the settings. I was a reddit is fun app user and am completely happy with voyager. But I'm also almost always just lurking. So more active users might have more problems but with how much you can adjust it I doubt it.

You can have gestures disabled on voyager and just use the buttons

I'm using Thunder and really enjoying it

Does it save your position in the comments of a specific post? That's my #1 criterion for an app. Boost is the only one that I've found that does it

Not that I can see

Like if you visit a link or go to someone's profile, then go back to return to the comments, will your scroll position be remembered so you can see the comment you were just looking at? If so, yes

Nice. What about if you back out to the main feed and then decide to go back to the comments later? This is where all other clients fail in my experience

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Ah, no it does not do that
