I am having hard time picking one.
I think I am gonna stick with Liftoff; the UI is good and it also has all the features you need for a social network.
Lastly, the developers are working like crazy.

I've been bouncing between Liftoff and Connect. I loved Sync for Reddit so I'll be using that when it comes out, though I also tried and liked Boost, Joey, and Infinity for Reddit.
I tried Jerboa but it was missing quite a few features at the time, but it's also really new so that wasn't a problem.
I do spend most of my time on Kbin so I just use the mobile web interface.
Wefwef has a web based app that works better than a lot of clients I tried on android.
Wefwef is my top choice right now and Connect is my second favorite.
Wefwef looks too iOS for my Material You Android
Yeah, I do agree that it feels a little out of place on Android, but currently I have been using it because it still feels polished and I haven't had many bugs with it. Lemmy clients in general are in their early days and many are quite rough around the edges. I've had a lot of bugs with most of them.
Connect for Lemmy has a Material You style to it and feels like at home on Android. It uses your current Material color scheme and feels a bit similar to Sync for Reddit.
I've been using a few, but so far I've found Connect to be the smoothest and more to my liking. I was a long time Sync user, so I'll be picking that up once it eventually launches.
Jerboa is working waaaaaay better than the previous versions. It is at last quite stable as of v39.
I don't mind jerboa tbh but I'm kind of waiting to see if sync for reddit becomes a thing.
Jerboa is my favourite, has been really smooth for me + the material you design makes it look so good!
I tried several and found wefwef to be there best
I have tried a lot, the three min ones I keep coming back to are jerboa, connect and liftoff. They all have pros and cons and I like each and alternate between them. Liftoff is a continuation of lemur by the way. Lemur was abandoned but someone else picked it up and develop it further, providing frequent updates.
I'm using jerboa right now. Got it from fdroid and it works really well!
I think we are still in the phase where there is so much movement this answer might become outdated rather quickly.
For what it's worth I have installed: connect, liftoff, thunder, jebora and werwef (web app). But there are more I haven't tried yet
Currently writing from connect, which is my favorite.
As reference for Reddit clients I used to used relay (on my phone) and slide (on my tablet)
I have most of the Android apps installed, but the two I keep switching between are Connect and Thunder. Both devs keep pushing out updates to the apps periodically and are very responsive to user feedback.
Liftoff but it doesn't let you see what comment or post someone replied to in your inbox. I'd say Jerboa is better for posting and stuff and Liftoff is better for browsing.
My current main is Thunder. Like all the rest it also has bugs, but none of them are particularly bad and the GUI is super slick.
Agreed, Thunder has been great. I just wish I could have vote/reply buttons on comments instead of only swipe gestures...
Any with notable Foldable and Tablet support? I used Sync for Reddit cause of how solid the foldable function was
I know the developer is working on Sync for Lemmy.
I've been using Jerboa and Liftoff, as the combination of both has what I'm looking for (Liftoff has an option to see feeds from other instances without having to log in), but most of the time I use Jerboa
Wefwef app was struggling last week. Today, it's been very solid. Sticking with it moving forward
Liftoff! Is superb. I don't have any complaints about it. My only gripe is finding the same content repeatedly. I just need to subscribe to more communities probably
Liftoff and Connect mostly. Connect is a bit more mature but keep an eye liftoff
I'm using jerboa, lift and connect. Each had positives and negatives. What's really needed, imo, is a way to centrally log in to all of the instances you have accounts on from one place and have it work on all apps. A single sign on.
Grabbing a new app and logging in to multiple lemmy servers is a pain in the ass.
Mainly Liftoff and Connect for Lemmy.
wefwef.app is not bad. Liftoff is good too but after last realme phone update it crashes the phone.
Right now Connect and Thunder are the best, in my opinion.
