I'm just here to read what everyone else is using. I only know of jerboa

[-] MarcellusDrum@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I've tried Jerboa, Connect, Thunder, Liftoff, Lemmotif, and the PWA. Jerboa has the best interface/ux imo, by far. Thunder is the least buggy to use, and the developer is a machine, doing constant updates. These 2 I think have the most potential.

I'm trying connect now. Jerboa keeps crashing like madness on me...

Here’s a sneak peek of one I’m working on too:

A lot of good options coming up, will be fun to see how it plays out!

I started with Jerboa but now use Connect. I'm happy with it.

[-] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 years ago

Typing with connect, you can tell it's beta quality but it's pretty good so far

[-] jzefbeio54@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Thx you stranger, this is the boost-like app I was looking for !

I use jerboa but I'd try out any libre client. I'm not interested in proprietary apps.

Funny enough I never saw the need for dedicated website apps for e.g. reddit, but the fediverse is somewhat clumsy to use in a browser (I'm aware that browser extensions can help) so an app actually improves the experience a bit.

[-] SHITPOSTING_ACCOUNT@feddit.de 7 points 2 years ago

I'm using Jerboa, but it keeps crashing and on every statup complains that my instance is not compatible with the updated version. This drives me back to reddit and when it shuts off apps, I'll probably go back to real life.

[-] lemmyvore@feddit.nl 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

In the latest version of Jerboa I can't change from All / Active anymore. 😊 Also I can't figure out for the life of me how to make a top level comment, they're doesn't seem to be a button for it.

I'm so used to web clients I can't get myself to use third-party apps anymore.

[-] richneptune@lemmy.fmhy.ml 8 points 2 years ago

For me there's one massive flaw with the mobile web version of Lemmy - that when you go "back" after viewing a post the page scrolls near to the top of the page. If it weren't for that I'd happily give up the quest for an app.

I just found out about wefwef.app

[-] wutBEE@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Same here, completely switched, it’s obviously made by the Apollo dev and no one can convince me otherwise. Wefwef has immediately made Lemmy usable to me, can barely notice a difference from Reddit running through Apollo.

Liftoff, jerboa and thunder currently.

Edit: does anyone know if any android app allows hiding posts? (locally on the device, i think the servers don't support)

Using the PWA until Sync for Lemmy is released.

[-] uthredii@programming.dev 4 points 2 years ago

You should try out wefwef.app

It is an Apollo like web app for Lemmy.

[-] zexu@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago

wefwef & thunder here 🫡

[-] neavts@feddit.de 6 points 2 years ago

It’s absolutely crazy how great wefwef is, considering it’s a progressive web app.

Just Jerboa normally.. but it's so buggy that I discovered Connect. It's amazing.

I'm using Connect for Lemmy right now, because Jerboa keeps showing the server version error when opening it.

I've used the PWA, Jerboa, Liftoff, and Connect.

Jerboa is probably my favorite of the bunch. I prefer how compact everything is and the 0.0.33 version was working well. I upgraded to 0.0.36 and performance took a bit of a hit so I figured I would explore alternatives. Also when I looked at other options 2FA support had not been added (it's working as of this post)

The PWA is more than functional,and I like it quite a bit. Don't like that backing out of a post navigates to the top of the page though.

Connect is good too, just personally not a fan of the larger interface, even in list/compact mode.

Currently using liftoff. Performance is good, 2FA support is available, and in list/compact mode it's tolerable. I still do prefer the compactness of Jerboa though.

[-] HiddenLayer5@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago

Why do I keep instinctively switching between clients when Lemmy is down thinking one will get past the 500 error better than the other one?

[-] leifrstein@vlemmy.net 10 points 2 years ago

I'm using liftoff (Android), best one I've found so far.

Which app is most like RIF? I'm using Jebora currently.

[-] ugabbel@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Jebora is glitched in my phone so now I'm using liftoff, the UI is not the best, but at least it works

They each have their own bugs and quirks so I hop around, currently on connect and it's been stable enough today. Tomorrow, who knows, maybe back to liftoff or jerboa.

I‘m using wefwef.app as webapp on iOS and as website on Desktop-PC and it reminds me of the Apollo app for reddit.

Didn't realize there were so many options that's great! Using Jerboa on Android now and it's been my only experience with the platform so far so I'm definitely open to recommendations

I've settled on thunder for now. Flawless since the latest update

[-] mustbe3to20signs@feddit.de 5 points 2 years ago

I prefer Liftoff at the moment for the UI similarities with Infinity for Reddit.

Sounds about right!

I keep alternating between Mlem, Memmy, Thunder, and the Lemmy ‘add to homescreen’ ‘app’
