I’m currently using Memmy and it’s giving me Apollo vibes but I’m open to testing out other apps ^^

I mostly use Connect and sometimes wefwef too. I tried Jerboa but it's very laggy on my phone. And I'm waiting for Sync.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

All of them rig now.

So far really liking wefwef, but connect and liftoff are really good as well.

The app ecosystem will be changing a lot in the next couple months so I will keep testing whatever keeps coming out.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Used Connect but switched to mobile browser. Lemmy behave way less buggy and way more stable, while UI and functionality are just fine. Will try Sync when it comes to beta though.

Jerboa for the most part. Allows me a couple of accounts and lets me keep them separate.

Liftoff is pretty decent too, except the both accounts sort of merge and show up in a single feed.

Really cannot wait for Boost. Seriously, so psyched!

Mostly Jerboa, but also Thunder and LiftOff. All of them function nicely.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Firefox. My initial experience with Jerboa wasn't great but it is improving.

@DuskLoaf Just started using Ice Cubes for Mastodon (for this reply) but also using WefWef and Mlem.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

The web app for now. works well for me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Just waiting patiently for boost.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I really like Jerboa, has everything I need and Jeboas are so cute!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Liftoff is great so far. Used Jebora, but it was having some connectivity issues and the comment structure was a little hard to differentiate. Liftoff is really nice and notifies you when you lose connection to the server. Never had an iPhone so didn't use apollo unfortunately because I heard great things. I did hear that the Boost team are releasing a new app soon which boost was IMO the best one I ever used

I'm liking the initial beta version of Artemis quite a bit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (5 children)

This has been asked dozens of times in the past days and weeks. I wish people would use the search function.

Long term I hope we move a part of this to the wiki. https://joinfediverse.wiki/What_is_Lemmy%3F

To still provide something helpful for the current thread: https://lemmyapps.netlify.app/

I've been using a bunch. I've tried liftoff, Jerboa, the official PWA and wefwef. So far, I'm liking the vibes I'm getting from liftoff.

As a kbin user do these apps work for that or not? I chose kbin because i prefer the web UX.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Kbin doesn't have an API yet so the apps in development for it are scraping thier own. Artemis is looking incredibly promising and the dev is great.

I've been using a firefox shortcut for Kbin and it's been working great though in the meantime (mobile).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Cheers for the reply. i will do this for now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I've tried using the firefox shortcut on my phone, and it's less than great (imho). I can't type replies, it goes all janky, freezes up, won't go back to the home page, etc. Virtually unuseable.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

testing myself in a second... lets see

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ok this works well for me. Easy to read and navigate. Perhaps try again, maybe they fixed it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What device are you using? Perhaps its something with my google device not wanting me to use firefox.

The web ui is solid, but still patiently waiting for the Artemis app. Looks like it’s shaping up nice.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Same, really looking forward to a public release for Artemis!

I'm using Thunder. It's working well except maybe for the facts that upvoting takes forever and I keep getting 502 errors all the time, but I'm unsure whether that's Thunder's fault or it's just because my is instance is lemmy.world lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm with Liftfoff, until Beyond reaches its usable stage (RIP Infinity).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Between Jerboa and Connect atm. Prefer the look of Jerboa but it definitely is buggier. All of a sudden it wouldn't let me subscribe to communities so spending more time on Connect. Have signed up for boost though do will check that once it's released.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I use connect for lemmy on android

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Memmy ftw. But also, developing my own app for macOS right now :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

jerboa, liftoff & wefwef, although I see liftoff more.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I am using Liftoff and Jerboa with lemmy.ml - I prefer Liftoff. Lemmy.ml is pretty slow recently.
I also have a kbin account with subscriptions to the same communities, and on mobile I am using the web app: Howto install a web app.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Jerboa for browsing everything. And then Slide while at work because I disabled NSFW in Slide.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Liftoff! Why? Because I love swiping back from the middle of the screen instead of the sides.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Was using wefwef but could not get over the PWA feel, now using Mlem and loving it!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Kbin + kbin enhancement script + ublock through a Kiwi Browser "app" install. I tried all the Lemmy specific apps, including wefwef, and couldn't stand any of them. Some were completely borked because beehaw was still on .17, others were incredibly buggy or they had very weird layout & design choices that made the usability experience just too weird.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm loving Liftoff, but I am waiting for Boost to be available cuz the previews posted of it look more like RIF, and I always preferred RIF.
