Sync. I would use thunder, but it currently cannot do some very basic shit like messaging threads with specific users.
Once they add that feature I'll probably switch to thunder full time.
Oh, no wonder I couldn't find that option; it doesn't exist yet!
Thunder is better in pretty much every other way though. Just need them to implement a way to have direct messages with people is all.
Sync
Summit.
Boost, Jerboa and Racoon. The latter two from F-Droid.
I do the Voyager. Can't remember how I landed on it, but it works good
In my heart it's still wefwef, complete with the little rainbow background lemmy.
I only remember switching to Voyager because I was having problems with images and other such things loading when I was using Jerboa when I first jumped ship to Lemmy.
Boost on Android
🚀
Sync
Jerboa
Love jerboa. It was rough at first but the bugs got worked out pretty quick. Now it's perfect, all the features I need and nothing that I dont
Thunder has become my main, has the least issues for me, been meaning to customize arctic since its a bit quicker being native. Thunder will sometimes take a bit to post a comment.

Voyager, because it was the most mature and feature complete app available when I left Reddit and I don’t fancy switching again without good reason.
It was a bit of a learning curve initially, coming from RiF, but I’m used to it now and rarely encounter any issues.
Boost here.
I actually still use Boost for Reddit because it's so incredible and unbeatable (especially for moderating), but I decided to lean more open-source otherwise.
Same, patched with ReVanced
Huh, what does patching it do?
Allow me to use Boost for Reddit after the API changes
Edit: or you probably mean Boost for Lemmy
You don't need to patch it; you just need to be a mod of a subreddit. I've had no problem continuing with using regular Boost for Reddit post-API restriction, as a mod in various places.
It stopped working for me, so I just patched it instead of moderating a sub
Fair, whatever works!
I use Boost. I tried a few others, and wanted to pick an open source option, but I never found one with UI I was satisfied with.
Just saying, I'm a huge Boost fan (donated, even) and still use its Reddit app to this day. Thunder is marvelous.

Voyager on iOS, Firefox on PC
I’m also in voyager.
Just the web interface for me - it does everything I want, so I have an instance of Firefox on my phone dedicated to social media, with always open tabs for Lemmy, Discuit, Tildes and Pixelfed.
Mlem (TestFlight version)
How do you get the TestFlight version?
I think it’s linked in the Mlem community? I actually can’t remember lol. Maybe it’s on the GitHub???
