Does anyone else use the android app Connect for Lemmy? It reminds me of Infinity for Reddit. If you use it, do you like it better than Jerboa? I also found another new Lemmy app called Liftoff.

Just trying it right now, great app

Which of these apps allows me to hide posts? At this point that is the only feature I care about.

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

I have not looked at that feature yet.

Here is a nice chart comparing Lemmy apps https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/73564

https://wefwef.app is the most polished one I have seen.

Much better! Feels more similar to the old app I was using for reddit.

Love the icon, super cute :)

This has to be the best looking Lemmy app I've used to far. Great job!

I used Infinity up until yesterday, it's going to be offered as a subscription app starting July 1. Connect is very similar, I like the way it works. I have Jerboa, haven't used it yet.

Wow. This app is really nice at first glance. I like the gesture to swipe left on a comment to upvote. Reminds me of Sync for Reddit!

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

Just installed it. It's great!

I beg you Lemmy developers; consider releasing to Fdroid too. :(

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

Well done to whoever is behind this app. Been using it a couple of days now, and it's hard to fault it. You must have worked your butt off.

I like the general look of Connect, but the dark mode needs some work. When I click through a web link to a WebView, the web page's background and text are both dark, making the article basically impossible to read.

Hi Connect dev here. I'll see what I can do about fixing that! Thank you for the feedback.

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

Thanks, I really appreciate it! Let me know if you need any more details.
