I like it a lot, but it has a lot of bugs that drive me crazy. Particularly with the Jerboa app, but also on the web. That's part of the early days for any software, though, especially one undergoing an explosion in its userbase. I'm happy to stick it out, and Lemmy is already a ~90% replacement for what reddit has been to me for the last 10+ years (feels weird to say that).

Try liftoff for Lemmy I've had a better experience with it

I've thought about it, but I prefer to install things from fdroid so I can get updates without having to check for it on their repository. If no alternatives pop up there soon I may just grab the apk.

Try Obtainium, it gives can give update notifications for apps installed from github.
