Don't know what app I like yet.

  • Connect have the worse UI in my opinion (things are hidden).
  • Jerboa crashes a lot on my phone.
  • Thunder is slow to load and the search is bad.
  • wefwef I like the search and exploration, but the text editing is the worse.

Where's Sync?!? ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Wasn't aware of Connect, that might actually be the one to hold me until Sync comes out. I was jumping between jerboa (for the swipe actions) and thunder (for the UI similar to sync), but connect seems to have both and a few other things that remind me of Sync (cards for posts, hold to collapse comment thread, swipe actions for post).

I know you posted out of frustration but thanks for the suggestion!

I get frustrated with the way connect does hold to collapse, because it means that I can't copy text to cite in comment replies.

You can tap the comment, go on the three dots and it will give you the option to copy text. Haven't really tried but I assume it would copy the entire comment so it would probably need some editing in case you just want to cite part of it.

Yeah, I can understand that, in sync you can at least copy while you are replying, connect still does the collapse on the reply page with the single comment you're replying to

it means that I can't copy text to cite in comment replies.

Like /u/Danilo said; you need to tap the comment, copy text and then insert as a quote. It's not exactly intuitive, but it seems to be the way to do it. I hope it gets fixed.

Edit: spelling.

On liftoff there's an option in the three dots button to make text selectable.

Also can't delete comment from profile, have to go to post and navigate to find my comment to delete it
