Any good alternative Facebook mobile clients out there? (lemm.ee)

Tl;Dr FB sucks, looking for Android client to view friends/pages/groups posts only.

I don't like Facebook, but my main hobby community exists almost exclusively there.

I try to limit my usage to just within the bounds of my hobby, but it is difficult with all of the garbage FB tries to push in my face every time I look at it.

I would love to have a different client for FB that just gives me content on people I'm friends with. No reels, no suggestions, no ads, just friends/pages/groups.

I've seen that there are alternative FB clients for Android, but it's never clear if they offer something like what I want.

Before I spend time evaluating various clients, does anyone already know of one that does what I want?

I was just playing with setting up an account on friendica.world, and so far that shit is pretty rough.

I'll go play with Signal and see how I feel about it. Thanks for the suggestion!

it's a mobile application first, but desktop options are available. Good luck!
