Infinity for Reddit was my favourite Reddit client, and now that Infinity has a Lemmy fork I use it exclusively.

I have about 6 installed. Connect is good. Liking Infinity right now. Jerboa is really good, but I like to have comments sorted by top as a default which is doesn't do...yet.

Really, I'm waiting for Boost, but likely jump between a few for now.

Infinity for lemmy is coming along really nice!

I am using Connect for Lemmy. It is straightforward.

I have tested all of the IOS apps available and I like wefwef and MLEMapp the best. Both seem intuitive to use and have the handy list of subscribed communities easily available for individual scrolling.

Butting in again to complain that most apps STILL auto-load images in comments with no way to disable it.

A travesty.

I want to move away from voyager, I really do. But I can't as long because I just know someone will post that 720x38900px tall zelda fanart and ruin a whole thread. Or goatse.

I use Infinity for reddit and am now using infinity for lemmy, I like the familiarity and with a bit more work it will probably become the standard android lemmy app. Having said that I liked jerboa and still use it too.

Wefwef. Mlem is showing promise.

Thunder has the best UX out of any of the Lemmy apps I've tried so far.

Fuck, I thought I was a mainstream lemmy user and now I find out that using voyager apparently makes me an outsider. :(

Could we get a new pinned comment for this. Some of this is our of date now and it would be nice to discuss.

Apps, interfaces, browser extensions, scripts

They're all good in their own ways, but I'm starting to wonder if lemmy is actually still alive, I see a lot of bot transfered posts from reddit which is cool but of course there's no real interaction with them

I’m using the beta of Memmy for Lemmy (ios). It hasn’t been released yet, but it’s already stable, even though there’s work to do for what concern the UI and some features. I appreciate it because being new to Lemmy, it makes things a but more approachable.

I'm happily using fennec browser (firefox fork) on android. The web ui is fine, don't know why everyone wants an app.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Not sure if same on iPhone but wefwef.app is great on android. Tried jerboa, connect and liftoff, this one is a pwa and it works quite well.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

+1 for Liftoff. I've got 4 apps and wefwef pwa going and I keep finding myself going to Liftoff more and more frequently.

On iOS the one I’ve come to prefer is Memmy. Tried liftoff and was not a big fan. Kept defaulting to Memmy without thinking.

Will be checking out Wefwef/Voyager as I like to e idea of PWA vs a full app install.

Edit: installed wefwef/Voyager. This is going to be the daily driver from now on. Able to login to every instance (exception being Lemmy.world getting connection errors.) Colors are fantastically readable in dark mode. Still poking. Around but loving it.

I've tried almost all of them and shockingly Jerboa seems the best despite being the first as far as I'm aware.

Sync comes in last for having ads unfortunately. Or basically just disqualified.

I'm constantly trying out all the ones I can find but so far connect is the only one where I can customise the colours. I love me a sepia theme!

Luckily it's also great in other ways.
