Most clients unfortunately target Android. But for things I open often I prefer to not use Waydroid.

I recently found https://github.com/lemmygtk/lemoa. I found it's usable, but not very adaptive. What do you use?

@Shatur Mastodon here instead of Lemmy, but makes no difference on the Fediverse.

Depends on what you mean by "makes no difference" - there being good Mastodon apps for Linux phones doesn't really help those who can't stand Twitter-style social media!

@cnnrduncan I mean that I am able to consume lemmy content like this post and to interact with it like my replies. Personal interface preferrence is irrelevant, anyone is free to use anything they like.

In my opinion, personal interface preference isn't really irrelevant when you originally replied to somebody who was specifically asking for Lemmy app suggestions.

I thought about it, but looks like I need to register a different account on a Mastodon instance in order to login, right?

@Shatur
Yes. I think it either works or is discussed to make signing to Lemmy with Mastodon account work, but not the other way around.
Lemmy is pretty young I think, so its client app base will grow over time.

What client would you recommend? What I found inconvenient is that all comments are mixes with posts...

@Shatur
Yes, that's the way Mastodon works. I use Tuba, Tootle was also fine.
