YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

I installed Connect, Jerboa and Liftoff. Those are the three that are on the Play Store (so easy to install) and look professional (sorry Lemmotif).
I opened each one and Liftoff immediately stood out for how cleanly it presented the information. I am not a huge fan of the navigation style, I assume that's the iOS style with the buttons on the bottom. I'm sure I can get used to it.
Connect was pretty good too. Easy to tell posts apart, though I like Liftoff's presentation slightly better. Connect put the pic/preview above the header info, while Liftoff always has the header first. I much prefer Liftoff's style there. Connect uses a very familiar navigation bar on the right, which I really like. The color scheme is ass, hopefully that changes later.
Jerboa... I literally can't tell when one post ends and another begins. Completely unusable IMHO.
So I am going to mess with Connect and Liftoff a bit and see which is better from a day to day usability perspective. They both have pros and cons at first glance so it's time to dig deeper.
EDIT - Okay gave Jerboa another shot and it's not that bad. It's actually pretty decent within a given post. I'll mess with it some more too.
Liftoff does look the nicest, but it's not registering my upvotes (at least from what I can tell).
I also couldn't figure out how to add other instances.
Overall though, glad we have a few nice options on Android. Using both Liftoff and Connect daily.
I've been living in Connect for now. It's got some issues (as do they all) but it's been doing the majority of what I need for now. The dev is very responsive on his community and is already implementing a feature I requested to fix the color scheme issue I complained about above. No idea if that was in the works before I mentioned it or they just work fast but apparently it will be ready tomorrow.
Tomorrow I'll spend time in Liftoff exclusively and see how it feels in comparison. But so far, pretty happy with Connect.
I've only tried Jerboa and I didn't dislike it. My only complaint is threading can be a bit unclear as the indentation is not huge but, the colours help there.
Looking forward to try boost for Lemmy as I was a Boost user on Reddit. But who knows, I may just stick with Jerboa for the name alone
Is the name supposed to mean something?
No idea, I just like it
