I started off using Voyager, swapped to Mlem because of slight differences I preferred. Recently found out Thunder for Lemmy is available on the apple appstore and it instantly became my favorite. I like how unique the ui is compared to other, it seems better suited for browsing and posting on Lemmy, while the others feel better for the initial transition from Reddit. Very suprised it has barely any downloads or reviews when its easily the best Lemmy app on IOS.

Thunder reminds me of the more "modern" alternative front ends for lemmy some sites have while mlem and voyager feel more like the alternative reddit apps (blue alien) and give a similar experience.

On desktop, I've been using Friendica.

Currently using Arctic for iOS. I was using Voyager for a while, but the Arctic dev (devs?) are so good about bug fixes and adding new features, I had to switch.

I just really love the default ui of thunder, it nailed what I want for lemmy usage, makes the ocassional lage/wrrors less of an issue. Also like consistent ui across devices, but I find it too annoying to type on my tablet to browse lemmy there.

I have to get around to customizing it, thunder is mostly solid, a bit laggy sometimes, arctic is prob a better move on ios, I just wanted to get used to it, since piefed is forking thunder for their ios app and that will probably be my main eventually. Arctic is definitely more optimized for ios and the fastest I've used.

Eternity for Lemmy, Android. Used Infinity before, so when I switched to Lemmy, I switched to Eternity.

Sync on Android. I'll go down with the ship, I guess. If ljdawson never comes back I'll be forced to look into other options eventually, but for now it still works, despite some bugs. It just looks and feels the best to me, and I've yet to find another app that can exactly replicate how I have it set up.

Voyager on iOS. It’s the best for my use case and I like the UI the most.

Have you tried Arctic?

Still exploring but why I like Voyager over Mlem is that Voyager can load embeds where Mlem doesn’t seem to have that option. I don’t like to have to tap to see content.
