Voyager for Lemmy on Android (slightly better experience than Jerboa imho), and Tusky for Mastodon. Soletimes Fedilab because it handles multiple accounts and platforms (Pixelfed...)

  • Mastadon - Moshidon (android) Mona (ios)
  • Lemmy - Eternity/Thunder (android) Voyager (ios) Alexandrite (web)
  • Peertube - Tubular (android)
[–] Resol@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

The Jerboa Lemmy client, and Mastodon's official client. I think they're both fine enough for my fediverse browsing needs.

Pixeldroid - Pixelfed Mastodon Lemmy - Jerboa, Eternity

toot! https://github.com/ihabunek/toot

Use it all the time in the terminal. Plus its a great name.

Jerboa on android. Its excellent.

Fedilab for mastodon on the phone.

Peertube for android. The new app is pretty good, just wish it had logging in and looking at my subscriptions.

Phanpy for mastodon on my laptop. Great mastodon browser.

w3m / Links2 for everything else of course.

I got everything but the image support working without any real effort. Just pip install toot.

Nice thanks for the info!

[–] LadyMeow@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I have mastodon and lemmy, and to a much lesser extent Bluesky.

I’m on iOS, so ice cubes, and voyager

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ngl I don’t like bluesky I had trouble trying to delete my account

[–] LadyMeow@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oh interesting, I deleted my first easily I think. I was going to leave it but ended up wanting it for a few things

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

Well I ran into a rate limit then it just wouldn’t let me click delete afterwards, in the end I had to make a GDPR request to delete my account and data

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fair enough, any particular web UI or just the default ones?

[–] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Default lemmy UI, but I changed the default dark theme to the light theme, the dark theme looks weird to me.

I don't think my instance has alternative web UIs.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

You should still be able to try something like Photon

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

You could try lemmy web apps, basically an app ui for on the web, unless you use lemmy on a computer

[–] Nemo@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Just lemmy but I've been meaning to check out funkwhale.

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Oh yes the music app right?

(Website)

[–] Nemo@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 week ago

That's right. It seems interesting but I don't have time to aggressively expand my music library in a conscientious way right now.

[–] minyaen@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago

Lemmy - Eternity (Android) Lemmy - Photon [phtn.app] (Windows) Mastodon - Moshidon (Android) Mastodon - mastodon, elk (Windows) Bluesky - Bluesky (Android/Windows)

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Tusky, for Mastodon, and Sync for Lemmy. Last I checked the Sync developer appeared to be missing in action, so might need to switch to something else in the not too distant future.

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I thought sync was a paid service?

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ads if you're not paying, unless you're blocking them, ofc.

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

Fair play, seems alright

Tusky on Android.

[–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

Summit on Android, only.

[–] z3rOR0ne@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Thunder for Lemmy on Android.

Tusky for Mastodon on Android.

I rarely use either Lemmy or Mastodon on desktop. If I do, it's just through the web client.

[–] small44@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Only Voyager, i would be interested in a decentralized bandcamp alternative

[–] I_Miss_Daniel@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Also Voyager.

Wish it had a 'forward' button for when you accidentally go back one step too far. RiF had that.

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

You could make the suggestion to the dev

[–] cmgvd3lw@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 week ago
[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

I use Mastodon and Pixelfed

[–] Moobythegoldensock@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Arctic for Lemmy. Also have Peertube app but there’s not much hosted there yet.

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

May I ask what made you choose peertube

[–] Moobythegoldensock@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ahh that makes sense, I’ve assume you’ve heard of invidious and pied and the other similar front ends

[–] Moobythegoldensock@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Invidious is basically a private front end for YouTube, however once you choose an instance go and change the settings to suit your needs. Try different instances and see which works best for you.

My favourite is https://inv.nadeko.net/

If you want to self host you can as well.

Hope that helped

Not that I’m aware of I’m not sure, however you can add the website to your Home Screen and make it a web app I believe
