I'm currently using Jerboa but it's a little janky so I'm looking for recommendations

Edit: I think I'm gonna be using Eternity for Lemmy. Thanks for the suggestions!

Boost is best no doubt.

But for low end phones (like mine), Jerboa is a good alternative.

Does Boost for Lemmy need more resources than Boost for Reddit of something? BfR ran better than the home screen on my 15 year old tablet.

Haven't done a direct comparison, but i would say it runs the same.

But like i said i run Jerboa since it's lighter on design and it's better optimized (uses Android 8.0 SDK instead of Boost's Android 5.0 SDK)

I have tried Connect, Sync, and Jerboa. They're all pretty nice, but Jerboa just "feels right" to me. Former BaconReader user fwiw

Liftoff

Summit. It feels the most like RiF.

Check out Photon! It works on desktop and on mobile (as a PWA) and it's great! The dev is super active too!

Thunder has been slightly less janky for me.

[-] NOTIngo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

For now I kinda got stuck with boost. But I still have all the other major clients to try out from time to time.

Can anyone compare Sync to Eternity? What are the pro/cons?

[-] Dr_Cog@mander.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Sync has a monthly fee to get rid of ads, Eternity is always ad-free

Voyager is simply amazing (see !voyagerapp@lemmy.world)

[-] ptz@dubvee.org 1 points 2 years ago

Tesseract as a PWA. Photon as a PWA before that.

[-] NataliePortland@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

I have Memmy in iOS and it's great. The only thing I could wish is that I could either share memes or download them

[-] Minty95@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Until a couple of days yi would have said Liftoff but I must admit Boost seems slightly better, the pro version, the free version with ads is awful, but at only 3.50 euros that's not expensive and worth the money
