I'm finding that I like bits and pieces from the various available frontends, but I haven't heavily gravitated towards one in particular.

If you have gravitated towards a specific UI, which one and why?

I’ve settled on Memmy (which I think is iOS only). I like that it’s pretty true — maybe 100% true — to the Lemmy web app’s features but with more of a designer’s eye, I guess. Just a lil’ polish. Not trying to be something the backend isn’t ready for.

Memmy is very buggy and crashes a lot. It was a strong contender 2 months ago. But the developer, by his own admission, can’t be arsed to update it in a timely fashion. In the intervening weeks strong contenders for iOS have arisen. I think Lemma is the most promising, although it’s available via TestFlight at the moment.

I've been very happy with Memmy but noticed the updates have gone way down. It's unfortunate they've lost some interest.

Basically they are rewriting it as they say they didn’t really know how to use the tools when they did v1. Which is why it’s an acquired taste.
