There are plenty of third party apps for Lemmy on Android/iPhone or Web, but are there any decent apps built for desktop use? Is it just simply a matter of relying on a web interface currently, or are there any well rounded apps out there that are worth mentioning.

I just use Firefox, not seeing any reason to download a extra app

Good to know, I was just having flashbacks to using Reddit on a browser and thought a dedicated App may be something in the wild out there.

Lemmy's browser experience is a lot better than Reddit's.

Same here.

But as a user of Firefox on mobile, I’m running into a weird persistent issue around the back button and post listings on pages beyond the first page. Sometimes, when I click into either the comments of a post or the post itself, when I click the ‘back’ button to return to the post list, sometimes I will end up on the previous page of search results (as though I pressed the back button twice).

Reloading the page seems to fix the problem (showing me the post list page that I expect), but it’s still weird.

Have you seen this?
