A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

There are two apps, in particular, that I am testing.

Mlem (iOS) & memmy (iOS & Android)

Both are plugging away and looking very good.

Currently testing out thunder (Android) and it's pretty sleek, especially for a side/hobby project.

Much prefer it to Jerboa, though it has quite a few less features.

Going to try out Liftoff later.

Edit: Okay, Liftoff is pretty impressive, but some accessibility issues and certain things are finicky.

I'd try memmy, but it looks like I'd have to build it from source for Android (I don't see an APK in their GitHub releases) and I'm far too tired to do that. It'd be great if it hit F-Droid soon.

So far, Jerboa's been the most "feature rich", but some of the bugs are very annoying. Don't want to try anything not FOSS, so Connect is out for me.

Thunder is good, extremely work in progress but what's there is really confidence inspiring for the future. Next update is already bringing stuff I was wishing for.

Thunder is my upcomer choice and i use both it and jerboa as needed. Omcecthunder gets a thing for telling me what posts i have read at a glance i will most likely use thunder exclusively. Jerboa is good, but the thunder dev has really worked on screen reader accessibility and it shows. He has fixed quite a few of my accessibility bug reports already and the app is top notch

Thunder is spectacular and it's still in alpha! Dev seems super nice. I'm still mostly using Jerboa, but Thunder will likely be my daily driver once it hits beta :) it's just so slick!
