Like there is the Official Mastodon app for Mastodon, and Element app for Matrix, which app is considered the most official lemmy app for Android [possibly also for ios]

Or atleast, the app which supports most(if not all) the features available in Lemmy

none of them.

i've heard that jerboa is from the same devs as lemmy, if that is 'official' for you.

i personally use sync, but just because i've used it for reddit and i like the interface.

Jerboa is the official Android app made by Lemmy's developers. Unfortunately it's a bit buggy and they don't have the time to focus on it because they're busy with the web version of Lemmy already. It's still very usable though.

Jerboa is notably not the official Lemmy app. It is made by the Lemmy developers, but they do not consider it to be any more official than any other Lemmy app.

Jebora seems to have this very annoying and deal breaking bug that makes it difficult for me to use it

Never ever experienced that in my massive whole maybe 2 months so far of using it... haha. I just wish I could block instances.

Yeah the post is an interesting question because the "official" app isn't as polished as you might expect it to be.

Lemmy apps are interesting in that they are all so different that you need to just try a few and find one you like.

Me personally, I like Sync, but I've also tried Thunder, Jerboa, and Liftoff. Each has their pros and cons, and you've just got to try them out and can't really rely on "most official" as a good metric

which one is most aesthetically pleasing?

[-] beeng@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

Voyager but it's a Webapp

[-] Paragone@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

Boost for Android is another option, eh?

[-] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

There is no official app. Just try out apps until you find one that you like.

I'm using Liftoff.
