    Voyager/wefwef is the best one rn honestly, even if the design language is iOS

    Waiting for Sync and Boost 🙏🙏

    I have tried Jerboa, Connect for Lemmy, and Liftoff. Connect for Lemmy is my preferred option now as the UI is cleaner, available at Playstore, enough customisation for me.

    Boost for Lemmy is what I am looking out for at the moment.

    edit: OK, Thunder is my favorite now 😆

      Tried jerboa and it’s perfectly good enough. Threading could use slightly more distinction but its snappy and lightweight.

      Also am waiting for Boost for Lemmy though as that was my Reddit app of choice. Time will tell if I end up on it or stick with jerboa

        Used Jerboa for a couple weeks, but got sick of the constant crashes. Connect and Liftoff were both better than Jerboa imo

    I’ve tried: Liftoff, WefWef, and Thunder.

    Sticking with Liftoff for now as I like the UI more than WefWef while Thunder back gestures not working is a real deal breaker. Have found pros/cons of all of them and none has seemed perfect for me quite yet.

    Waiting for Sync, as that was my Reddit app of choice.

    I’ve got Connect and Liftoff installed and I can’t figure out how to view all my subscriptions in a feed in Connect. Am I just tired or is this a pending feature? Thanks in advance!

      Also, when you swipe from the left you can see Frontpage, Local, and All. Select Frontpage. That will show you only the what you are subscribed to.

    I am a former Baconreader user. Connect, with just a few options tweaks, is very close to what Baconreader was. I’m enjoying it.

      I tweaked Connect to look similar to RiF, which is what I used for Reddit. I’m really enjoying it so far.

      connect doesn’t seem to let me subscribe to other instances outside of beehaw though? or I’m missing something?

        Click the three dots and click subscribe while viewing a community on another instance. You can also subscribe from the left bar. Under your feeds and subscriptions, you can see top communities and subscribe. You can also search at the top of the left bar.

    So far I’ve only tried Connect and Liftoff, with Connect being the better of the two.

    However, being a serious Sync user for Reddit, once that app is ready for Lemmy, I’m sure there won’t be any other alternative.

    I was a Relay user for years and found that I prefer Connect followed closely by Jerboa.

    I’ve also tried Thunder and Liftoff which are both great but the UI/UX of Connect and Jerboa seem to feel more at home for me.

    I make an effort to use all four interchangeably but my thumb gravitates to Connect more often than not.

    On Jerboa. Probably need to give connect a shot at some point just to experience it. But I’ll almost certainly switch to Boost once it drops. Absolutely hooked on that for reddit for many years and it’s such an awesome client I’m sure it’s dev, Ruben Mayayo, will do no less for Lemmy.

    Thunder has the best UX out of all apps I’ve tried, and it’s not even close. And I’m fairly certain I’ve tried all of them.

      It has good ui, I love it too. But its inability to sort comments on post is dealbreaker for me… or am I missing the updates/features? 😅🙏
      For now, I use Liftoff and web-ui…

      I can’t seem to figure out how to get infinity for everything downloaded. Any advice? I used infinity for reddit and would love to use it for lemmy!

    Jerboa, Summit, Connect, Liftoff, Lemmotif, Thunder, Wefwef

    My favourites are Connect and Liftoff. And in the last couple of days Jerboa had a good catch-up run.
    I mean they ALL evolved a good deal in the last 2 weeks, it’s just amazing. Thank you, devs!

    Upcoming? Yes. Sync. I’ve used it for Reddit for like 6 years. I miss it very, very deeply.

    I’m currently using wefwef because it’s the most polished one regarding UI, that I’ve found. The jerboa one didn’t let me sign in via feddit.de because of version mismatch.

    But I’m very certain that I’ll switch to Sync for Lemmy once that’s out, as was a very long-time user of Sync for Reddit and it’s UI just was so clean.
