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

browser. i'll revisit that decision in a few months.

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!

Sorry it's not an Android app, but I recommend the wefwef, which is an open source PWA project hosted on Github. https://wefwef.app/

Connect for Lemmy at the moment, but I've signed up to be notified when Sync for Lemmy drops. Sync had everything I wanted for my Reddit app, and I'm hoping for a similar interface for Lemmy when it arrives.

wefwef is surprisingly good

I'm using liftoff until sync is released

Using Liftoff, it's pretty good!

wefwef.app until Sync for Lemmy is out

Connect for Lemmy on Android.

Jerboa had too many breaking bugs for me.

wefwef.app

Works really smooth.

Boost for Lemmy when it comes out. Been using Boost since 2017 and I hope to continue doing so!

I've only tried Jerboa, Liftoff, and Thunder so far but Thunder is my early favorite. I'll probably keep bouncing around until Sync is ready.

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

Jerboa does not work with all 0.17 instances, I'm using Connect and may switch to Sync

Wefwef is very smooth, but I'm also really liking Thunder.

Liftoff seems decent

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.

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.

https://wefwef.app/settings/install

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

Boost for Lemmy is coming soon!

Thunder, until Sync for Lemmy is released

Edit: okay, Liftoff is pretty good

So far Liftoff has my vote on Android.

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

Edit: I'm on https://lemmy.world/c/summit if anyone has feedback/feature requests/bug reports, etc.

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

Was using Jerboa and really liked it up until today, it just crashes now.

Downloaded Liftoff and it seems pretty good. I want something like RIF interface and both apps give me that.

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.

Connect for Lemmy

Pretty slick so far

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

Wefwef.app best app so far

Thunder is pretty amazing right now.

I'm using Liftoff and I've liked it so far

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

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.

I absolutely love wefwef

I use Liftoff it's clean app for Lemmy.

Connect for lemmy has been great so far.

I originally used Jerboa. It was okay, but not quite what I was looking for. I've tried Connect and Liftoff and like those better. I'm waiting for Sync, as that was my Reddit app of choice.

Started with Jerboa, but it started crashing on me yesterday (plus, it apparently isn't working right now with lemmy.world). So I tried Liftoff yesterday, which I'm using to comment this. Definitely going to Sync again once it's done!

If Sync for Lemmy releases with half of the features and polish of the Reddit version, it's going to default to be the app of choice.

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

Jerboa and Connect. The former has been a bit unstable recently so Connect has been my go-to most recently.

Liftoff, for the moment. But I think that there is still room for a lot of improvement. It is completely normal, this is still growing ^^

Connect and Thunder seem to work best for me. I'm on .world so Jerboa isn't an option at the moment

So far I've tried Jerboa, liftoff and wefwef. Being a RIF user for many years I feel Jerboa is closest to the UX but I am more comfortable with wefwef. Ask me again tomorrow as I will probably try other alternatives. This is like the good ole Linux distro hopping days when I tried over 30 distros before settling with KDE neon for the last 3 years.

Wefwef is pretty good. Liftoff as well, but I like wefwef better

You guys actually use an app? I just browse lemmy.world on my phone lol, it helps that the mobile interface is pretty good.

Jerboa, but can't wait for Sync to be released. If it's anything like the Reddit app, it'll be amazing (obviously after many iterations and testing etc).

I am currently using Jerboa (the UI is not that good) while I wait for sync

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

I use Thunder.

Wefwef until it exploted on lemmy.world, Jerboa is dead with lemmy.world as well...

Man, lemmy.world really needs to fix their instance to make it at time when "the big migration" happens.

For now I'm using Liftoff and Connect, with honorable mentions to Lemming and Thunder.

Actually I use all of them lol.

Soon to be Sync For Lemmy!

Jerboa for now. The other ones I've tried were not information dense, only showing 3 or 4 posts on screen at a time, or had other issues. Looking forward to trying Artemis and Sync.

Thunder

I'm using wefwef. Its very uhh Apollo inspired.

Thunder is pretty gorgeous with some issues.

Well, most of my the on Reddit was through an iPhone, so I came to like Apollo (I know us users were kinda like a rabid cult). But wefwef.app is crazy nice clone of Apollo and is a webapp so it works on Android!

Connect and liftoff

Waiting for boost for lemmy

I use Liftoff and also test Thunder. Liftoff has a complete search function and Thunder a very pleasant UI.

Jerboa doesn't work with my instance at the moment, as it still runs on version 0.17.4.

On Android I'm using 'Connect for Lemmy'

I was using Jerboa. But after a lot of bugs in last few versions I currently trying other apps.

Currently alternating between Connect and Wefwef

Using jerboa and wefwef web app.

I am using liftoff and wefwef

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.

Is there any that works well on desktop?

I'm using Jerboa

I am switching between Liftoff and Connect while I wait for Sync for Lemmy.

I'm not using lemmy but kbin. I'm just using the app shortcut that you can create in Chrome on Android. It works well enough for now

At the moment I'm just using the website, added to my home screen from the firefox app. It formats just fine on mobile, and it has all the features.

started with connect for lemmy. which is visually very clean but it neither has an edit comment function nor a block user function yet. lemming has both functions but loks a lot more clunky.

The apps are developing so fast that I'm going between the apps daily.

After a quick search, I've decided to settle on Connect. The UI looks really familiar to Infinity, which is a giant plus for me.

Flipping between thunder and liftoff, thunder is my preferred app but it is very slow loading feeds and scrolling compared to liftoff, once this is fixed back I go.

Tried some others like connect for Lemmy but the whole UI feels 'off' can't put an exact word to it just a feeling!

Been trying all of them but I keep going back to Liftoff. Looking forward to Sync and Boost.

Currently using a mix of Jerboa, Liftoff and web. Still waiting for the one app that can do it all.

Wef wef is ok for now

Jerboa for now. Works ok

I'm using Liftoff.

Currently thunder is the only one that works with my instance, lemmy.cafe.

Newbie here. Just installed Jerboa and two minutes later it shows "Network error". Installed Wefwef and it's ok. Taking notes to try the other ones.

Still learning about Lemmy and the communities to have an accurate opinion.

I tried Jerboa and it was very similar to RiF but too basic, I'm using Thunder rn and it's also similar to RiF but has more features than Jerboa, not perfect but definitely trending that way.

I'd like to see the content and user filtering capabilities that RiF has/had, as well as the security and privacy functionality.

I know this is more of a Lemmy side feature, but I'd also love for a "Top this Hour" sort as well.

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

Thunder for me

Started with Jerboa but started having issues with it. Now trying Liftoff and will probably give Connect a try also.

Wefwef is good, but Sync is better imo

Edit - Got confused trying out so many. Wewef best I've found so far, Sync not yet available.

New user here. I use the Web app for now. Connect seems to make my phone freeze for whatever reason and I can't seem to login with jerboa because "my server version is too low"...

Jeroba for me

I want whatever is closest to Baconreader

Commenting from "Connect for Lemmy". I started using Jerboa, bit it's broken just now, it'll hopefully be back in an update soon.

Kbin so currently just using hermit to make the web app until Artemis comes out

Thunder and jerboa

I'm moving between Connect, Jerboa, Thunder at the moment, they all have their positives and I can't pick just one yet.

Still on my phone browser. So far not seeing any downside to it compared to PC browsing, so I think this will be fine.

I'm on kbin, so i guess i get no app until artemis is out :(

Thunder.

Memmy on iOS is my favourite.

Started with Jerboa, but too many bugs, using Thunder now.

Jerboa is the most feature-complete, but it crashes pretty often and it adopts new Lemmy API versions a bit early, so all instances don't always have the time to get updated. Besides, the look is simple and functional, but I can't say it's pretty.

So far, I really like Thunder's looks, interface and UX. It's not very intuitive, but the swipe-based gesture system is really promising, and so far it's also the prettiestt. It still lacks many important features (editing posts and comments), but they're not essential enough to prevent me from using them, and I've been mostly browsing with that in the last few days.

Liftoff looks really good as well. As others said, it looks a lot like Infinity, which was my go-to Reddit app. However, I don't like the dark theme options we have so far: dark is too light, and AMOLED is a single black screen, which makes posts hard to distinguish at a glance. Once we get more theming options, I might switch to Liftoff.

Only used connect so far so can't comment on the others. Feels nice and smooth, looks great and has some nice features. Liftoff seems to be the go to here, might check it out.

Currently the PWA for the most part. Jerboa is a close second but doesn't support gifs. I also have a custom theme on my instance which I like better than the Jerboa defaults.

I'm using Lemmy as an android pwa. Works well. I liked Jerboa but it was too buggy.

I tried Jerboa and I couldn't login, now giving wefwef a try. Wefwef works but it's a PWA with iOS theme. I'd like to switch to App that is close to the original Android Reddit app.

I've tested many, but I always end up coming back to Jerboa.

Boost. It's not out yet though, so for now just web in the meantime.

Personally, I use Jerboa on mobile. It's got its own problems and compatibility issues, but they're also not so significant that it makes me want to go use another app, and with lemmy.world still being on an older version that probably isn't compatible with most apps that work for 0.18 and above, the risk of breaking everything makes it not that worthwhile.

Currently trying out Summit, seems to work fine, nice interface and easy to use.

I find Liftoff to be the smoothest and most reliable one at the moment. Wefwef has the best interface.

I have been happy whith jerboa, though since the latest update which doesn't work well with my instance (not updated yet) I have tried a lot of different apps. My favorites so far are jerboa (when it works), connect for lemmy and liftoff. All have pros and cons, but all seem eager to improve.

Just signed up today and am using jerboa.

I am using jerboa but really miss redreader, the creator floated making it support lemmy and I am excited for that possibility but am sticking with jerboa for now.
