I'm on android but I've tried a bunch (connect, summit, wefwef, another I forget) but I think Jerboa is the best. Seems the most functional by far. Can't wait for boost, though.
Tried all of them, liftoff is way better
Is there a better way to search for communities outside of your account's home instance on Liftoff that I haven't found? Connect currently has it beat on that feature, unless I've missed something obvious.
Glad I'm not the only one. It feels like I need to add a new instance every time I look for a community outside the ones I've already added. :/
It's so fuckin stable. Way few timeouts too!
Liftoff was really slow/buggy for me and I think searching for communities was hard
I miss the left-right scrolling navigation of bacon reader 😭
I just want to view one post and it's comments at a time and swipe left and right to switch between posts. Why does no other app do that?
After using boost for years the biggest thing I hate about jerboa is that short and long taps on comments is backwards. Drives me nuts.
I KEEP LONG PRESSING AND THE UPVOTE/DOWNVOTE BUTTONS DISAPPEAR! WHO WOULD WANT THIS?!
This is literally my one and only complaint for jerboa. Its maddening, I need an option to change the short and long taps lmao
Same here, my one complaint aside from other small nitpicky things.
thunder is really good though
I stand corrected connect is actually amazing
I was disappointed when I pressed the back button on the home page and it came up with a dialogue to exit the app
They asked if I wanted to exit connect instead of the obvious pun of "do you want to dis-connect"
I want to dis-combobulate myself after reading that pun
I don't think I tried that actually, shall give it a go. I mostly just wanted to give Jerboa some love. It's fun trying the new ones but people seem to overlook it a bit.
Liftoff is pretty awesome. I find it smoother than Jerboa.
