I'm currently using Jerboa but curious to know whether any of the ones popping up are a better experience!

Wefwef until it exploted on lemmy.world, Jerboa is dead with lemmy.world as well...

Man, lemmy.world really needs to fix their instance to make it at time when "the big migration" happens.

For now I'm using Liftoff and Connect, with honorable mentions to Lemming and Thunder.

Actually I use all of them lol.

[–] ghariksforge@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'm using Jerboa

[–] Bongles@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

At the moment I'm just using the website, added to my home screen from the firefox app. It formats just fine on mobile, and it has all the features.

[–] InAmberClad 2 points 1 year ago

I'm moving between Connect, Jerboa, Thunder at the moment, they all have their positives and I can't pick just one yet.

[–] FairLight@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Liftoff, for the moment. But I think that there is still room for a lot of improvement. It is completely normal, this is still growing ^^

[–] ConditionOverload@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Soon to be Sync For Lemmy!

[–] eldrichhydralisk@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm just using the mobile website. It works and it doesn't pester me to use something else, which is really refreshing!

[–] Bongles@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I'm so tired of that, Especially when a site says to use their app and won't let you keep browsing the site because the popup is in the way.. Why even have the website anymore.

[–] oryx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Started with Jerboa, but it started crashing on me yesterday (plus, it apparently isn't working right now with lemmy.world). So I tried Liftoff yesterday, which I'm using to comment this. Definitely going to Sync again once it's done!

[–] Oneeightnine@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago

On Android I'm using 'Connect for Lemmy'

[–] markkdark@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I use Liftoff it's clean app for Lemmy.

[–] Pandoras_Can_Opener@mander.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

started with connect for lemmy. which is visually very clean but it neither has an edit comment function nor a block user function yet. lemming has both functions but loks a lot more clunky.

I use Thunder.

[–] Incendiary01@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago
[–] shortwavesurfer@monero.town 1 points 1 year ago

Thunder for me

[–] slinky317@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

If Sync for Lemmy releases with half of the features and polish of the Reddit version, it's going to default to be the app of choice.

[–] jcalais@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thunder is pretty gorgeous with some issues.

[–] MrNemobody@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I've tested many, but I always end up coming back to Jerboa.

[–] talou@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

jerboa most of the time : it's quite light (3,2Mo), it's on fdroid, it's pretty useable. But it's crashing a lot thèse days

[–] Hanabie@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'm using Liftoff.

[–] bluemoose@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Started with Jerboa but started having issues with it. Now trying Liftoff and will probably give Connect a try also.

[–] GuitarGeek@waveform.social 1 points 1 year ago

Only used connect so far so can't comment on the others. Feels nice and smooth, looks great and has some nice features. Liftoff seems to be the go to here, might check it out.

[–] supermurs@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Memmy on iOS is my favourite.

[–] wide_eyed_stupid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Using Jerboa right now, but to be frank: I haven't tried any other apps, because I am actually waiting for Slide, so whenever that launches I'll switch.

[–] avatar@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago

I want whatever is closest to Baconreader

[–] Suoko@feddit.it 1 points 1 year ago

Thunder and jerboa

[–] aeternum@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'm on kbin, so i guess i get no app until artemis is out :(

[–] tree1000@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I'm not using lemmy but kbin. I'm just using the app shortcut that you can create in Chrome on Android. It works well enough for now

[–] Weborl@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Newbie here. Just installed Jerboa and two minutes later it shows "Network error". Installed Wefwef and it's ok. Taking notes to try the other ones.

Still learning about Lemmy and the communities to have an accurate opinion.

[–] SheenTStars@monyet.cc 1 points 1 year ago

Still on my phone browser. So far not seeing any downside to it compared to PC browsing, so I think this will be fine.

[–] iliketurtles@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm using Lemmy as an android pwa. Works well. I liked Jerboa but it was too buggy.

[–] T156@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Personally, I use Jerboa on mobile. It's got its own problems and compatibility issues, but they're also not so significant that it makes me want to go use another app, and with lemmy.world still being on an older version that probably isn't compatible with most apps that work for 0.18 and above, the risk of breaking everything makes it not that worthwhile.
