I'm currently using Jerboa but curious to know whether any of the ones popping up are a better experience!

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.

[-] supermurs@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Memmy on iOS is my favourite.

[-] wide_eyed_stupid@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Connect for Lemmy

Pretty slick so far

[-] bluemoose@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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

Connect for Lemmy at the moment, as it has a very similar interface to sync, 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.

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

[-] Oneeightnine@feddit.uk 1 points 2 years ago

On Android I'm using 'Connect for Lemmy'

[-] tree1000@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] Wildf1re@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

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).

[-] s0phia@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] Crackerjack@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Same here, loved Boost

[-] Suoko@feddit.it 1 points 2 years ago

Thunder and jerboa

[-] Xathonn@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] Weborl@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] aeternum@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] Erich@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] iliketurtles@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] T156@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] planforrain@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] slinky317@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] SilentStorms@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] Xanvial@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

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

[-] damnYouSun@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Jerboa won't even load for me. It just crashes and force quits.

[-] IoSapsai@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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"...

[-] hydroel@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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.
