Sync! It's what I used on Reddit, and having it here made switching platforms so much smoother.
100%
Boost!
Boost. 1000% boost.
Has too many trackers for my liking
Voyager…formerly wefwef.
It is wild that on github, Voyager almost has much stars as Lemmy. I love this app so far. (And lemmy as well)
Me too. Same app for my PC and Android feels good.
It has all platforms - Web, PWA, iOS and Android.
It is free and open source. No tracking and no ads.
same. initially i was worried about the performance compared to "native" clients like Boost,Sync,etc but even as a PWA written in JS i have zero issues with it.
I previously used Voyager before switching to Boost. It was the only way I could experience iOS apps on Android.

Memmy (on iOS).
Astoundingly good for solo effort at sub v1.0.
Yeah. It’s my favorite at the moment, but it doesn’t seem well maintained
The github is active again! Looks like the dev is back from their break
Jeroba. It's good enough for me.
Jerboa*
Jehova?
Boost (the best social app ever) & Jerboa (simple, lightweight alternative).
I can't even begin to describe how amazing Boost is. It's the only android Reddit app that I will acknowledge, and it's the only client that got me into Lemmy.
Boost gang! 🚀🚀
You can 1- hand with boost. That's all you need to know

tried Jerboa at first but it was extremely choppy. Now I use Sync and it's smooth af
I tried many waiting for Sync release on Lemmy, but nothing felt as complete, it's just far and away the best IMHO.
Jerboa
Firefox.
Thunder
This is what I switched to when Memmy development stopped. I really like it so far.
I tried a couple, but I always go back to just using the web interface through Firefox. It has all the features I need, no extra ads, trackers or permissions, and is pretty comfortable to use. Then again, I don't moderate any communities and I'm not a very prolific poster, so my needs are pretty basic.
I'm using Avelon on Ios and I think it's great. I was using Voyager until some months ago.
Anything that doesn’t make you pay to remove ads. That files in the face of what lemmy is about.

Thunder rn. The design is minimalistic and supports Material You. It lacks some major features though.
Eternity, I came from infinity, so it's the only choice for me
Jerboa because you can see the number of upvotes and downvotes separately. And it's FOSS.
Boost is still smoother and feels nicer though.
Boost is the reason I'm contributing to this community.
Connect on phone, voyager on desktop
I recently switched to Eternity and I'm loving it so far. Only been using it a day, but I haven't run into any issues or anything to dislike.
I personally do not want to use any applications that have ads/tracking. I don't believe they have any place on Lemmy. I know already that I'm gonna be downvoted to oblivion, but I understand that these devs need to make money somehow. I just think it goes against the whole freer internet thing. Despite this, I don't really have a problem with them because they are contributing to the growth of Lemmy. And besides it is way better than using a centralised social media platform haha, so it will remain a personal choice.
Eternity, for now.
Connect, it's great!
Eternity
I like Thunder, which is open-source. The Devs are super nice too.
