I'm currently using Jerboa but curious to know whether any of the ones popping up are a better experience!

Sync for Lemmy but it's a bit basic right now

[-] Sponholz@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

That was mean... And awesome!

Any chance for alpha/internal testers like we were on the Sync for Reddit?

Wink, wink!

Cheers brother! Nice to see you around here.

I was a little bit confused until I saw your name

Flexing on people

[-] TurnItOff_OnAgain@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Wait... Is this posted from Sync for lemmy? 😍😍😍 I can't wait!

Connect for Lemmy.

It's being updated to add features and fix bugs pretty much daily. Which means it is improving at a crazy speed.

It's come a long way since I first started using it - about 3 days ago!

[-] fr33man@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 year ago

Another (mostly) happy Connect user here! It's crazy the blistering pace at which the Dev keeps pumping out updates. I keep alternating between Connect and Thunder. I think Liftoff still needs some UI polish and it doesn't handle jumping to communities in different instances very gracefully.

Connect for Lemmy on Android.

Jerboa had too many breaking bugs for me.

Using Liftoff, it's pretty good!

[-] gazoo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Liftoff is still 'early access' and yet... so polished. It immediately became my go-to.

I can't believe that just a couple of weeks ago, we had a single (Android) solution. Suddenly, it's hard to keep track of all the clients...

I literally have 5 installed. Exciting times. The birth of a social network created by users for users.

i like liftoff it's like Infinity for reddit

[-] gon@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Jerboa, Thunder, and Liftoff.

  • Jerboa is the most complete, but it's not very good... It's slow and the UI is very bland.
  • Thunder is great, and has some very nice features. It's still pretty buggy though.
  • Liftoff might be the best out of these 3, but there's some very bad bugs/problems when dealing with separate instances.

IMO. I use Lemmy on desktop most of the time anyways.

Liftoff seems decent

[-] elboyoloco@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Wefwef has been great and it's a PWA so no need to download.

[-] burretploof@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I was using Jerboa but it seems a little unstable, had it crash on me a number of times.

Currently I'm using wefwef as a Chrome app thing.

[-] CaldeiraG@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Jerboa is the best Boost-like app for me but Liftoff has been a good alternative to .17 instances

[-] idunnololz@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I might be just a tiny bit biased but it's Summit for Lemmy

[-] AnAverageSnoot@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

So am I! Thanks for your hard work!

[-] Hotzilla@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

How do you sub/unsub community in summit?

Edit: found it, swipe right

Thunder, until Sync for Lemmy is released

Edit: okay, Liftoff is pretty good

[-] TheFrirish@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I'm using wefwef which looks a bit like Apollo. It's browser based but you can install it on your home screen as a browser app.

[-] Art3sian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

WefWef is SOLID. Nothing will ever be Apollo but this definitely a easy transition from it.

wefwef.app

Works really smooth.

[-] L3ft3r1s@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Liftoff all the way! At the moment is miles away. Hopefully more will step up in near future.

[-] OverfedRaccoon@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Honestly, not sure at this point. Jerboa has the fullest features as far as everything goes. Every other app has been missing some key functionally for me to varying degrees. Not to say any of them aren't good, but none have truly, ultimately impressed me yet. Sync was my go-to on Reddit, so I have very high hopes for that launch. If I had to pick one alternative that I could use, but still doesn't quite tic all the boxes, it's Thunder. Especially right now, as Jerboa crashes on launch.

EDIT: Liftoff is where it's at. It has all the features other third-party apps are still missing.

[-] glarf@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Connect for lemmy works great for me so far. Though it doesn't support wide screens very well.

[-] HanSooloo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Wefwef looks really simple slick and Apollo like. Those are win for me.

[-] Gxost@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Liftoff, it's functional and looks good. Waiting to try Sync for Lemmy, though.

[-] rei@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago

I'm just using the mobile website. It works and it doesn't pester me to use something else, which is really refreshing!

Using Jerboa right now, but to be frank: I haven't tried any other apps, because I am actually waiting for Slide, so whenever that launches I'll switch.

[-] ghariksforge@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'm using Jerboa

[-] talou@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

jerboa most of the time : it's quite light (3,2Mo), it's on fdroid, it's pretty useable. But it's crashing a lot thèse days
