I use Eternity.
I use Jerboa. It's closest to the app I used for Reddit (Joey) after a few tweaks.
Flat list of posts, small thumbnails on the side. Clean interface. Default sort is all top day.
Sync, what am I missing? I used bacon reader on Reddit and haven't had too many issues with sync. But I also don't look past the first result when I search a store.
The developer seems MIA, again. It's been a while since the last update.
Just dropped Sync for summit
It just got a great update today.
I use Voyager, but I use it mostly for PieFed, not Lemmy.
I was on Connect but then I moved to this piefed instance and switched to Summit
firefox
Having tried almost all apps for Lemmy, Summit is the best. Not only is it feature rich, it also let's me view some content from instances that don't load for me on other clients. And this apparently only happens on Lemmy.zip.
Mlem has been rock solid for me.
Boost.
I use the Website, on my computer. I don't use Lemmy (and use no other social at all) on the phone.
Jerboa. I find the UI very nice. Right around amount of info and density (i hate excessive padding), fully customizable colors, not 1 glitch
Are you me? This is exactly what I needed too because I was on Sync for years now and had no idea development stopped. Started to notice a lot of small issues here and there with it and finally saw there's been no updates on almost 2 years.
I tried Voyager and I liked the gestures for votes and being able to customize things pretty well. Also trying out Boost right now and I like how familiar it is to me since I used it on Reddit, but now I'm missing the gestures.
The developer of sync releases a big update once in awhile with complete silence in between. it's always been like that
Eternity. I didn't like Voyager, too many bells and whistles.
Eternity is pretty simple, no user avatars, allows faster reading of actual content.
I like reading other peoples perspectives her, and Eternity does not seem to be recieving regular bug-fixes. So many Voyager Enjoyers that I may give it another try.
Boost for the longest time; but since I've been using Piefed, I mostly just use mobile Vivaldi/Firefox instead of an app (Boost still works with it; I just got used to using it over apps).
Does piefed have third party apps?
Yes, most of the Lemmy apps work with PieFed too. To varying degrees.
Blorp is quite fine
Boost. Only problem I have is videos often only play in thumbnail and load infinitely when clicked on. Not that important for me though.
With Jerboa and Voyager there were a lot of small problems that just made the experience worse.
boost is the porn one
?
boost is the one for porn
but… why are you saying that? what makes boost for lemmy the porn client?
Used Jerboa until it stopped working, and have been on Connect since. But recently, Connect is also breaking a lot of random things in their updates without adding much of value that I can see.
Any good PieFed apps that are similar to RIF? I've been thinking of moving there but I don't know if there are any good apps.
I use Boost. Not open-source, but the ads are non-intrusive to me and it just feels like home.
I just paid the $5 or whatever. Felt right to support the dev after using it on reddit for so long
Boost. Used to use it for Reddit, then they disabled the APIs or whatever.
Anyway, it's excellent. Highly recommend.
My browser.
It seems like every time someone mentions Lemmy apps, someone says that one app is better for one thing but another app is better for something else. Plus, if the unpaid, overworked dev pulls a disappearing act, what used to be a great app becomes outdated garbage. Screw that.
