It was announced back in June but I haven't heard anything about it since.

I started Lemmy with Jerboa, switched to Sync, tried Eternity (Infinity), un-installed immediately, and am now very happy using Voyager.

So for me personally, Boost is a little late.

Voyager is pretty good, but it has a lot of missing features. Not only that but it doesn't behave as well as a native app, because it isn't. It's pretty smooth for a PWA, but still no match for a native app.

What missing features are you looking for?

Also worth noting that Voyager now has a native version on the App Store/Play Store that enables more features compared to the PWA version!

Personally, the number one feature I'm looking for is the ability to turn off displaying karma completely.

I just can't use the app knowing that it's front and center every time I go to a user page.

What's your opinion on photon or alexandrite? I like those even more personally.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Alexandrite is very nice when you're on PC, but on a phone screen its a lot easier to just use a third party app.

Don't know when you last tried but it was recently updated and has "cards" which makes it a lot more useable on mobile :)
