Im using Alexandrite on desktop und Liftoff on mobile. Liftoff is great, I don't really miss much from the famous reddit apps.
App, funny enough never been here on the pc.
Waiting for Boost
web browser on desktop, but if synclemmy is going to be as hot as reddit syncreddit, then mobile usage will jump.
I'm suffering through Jerboa, heavily anticipating Sync since it'll change everything for me
Liftoff on mobile. Don't get to sit at a PC for web browsing much. If sync feels like it did on reddit. I will switch to that and customize it exactly how I want it again.
Same here. Liftoff does what I need it to do for the time-being, but will be switching to sync whenever it is ready to go
Thunder
Voyager
I have jerboa installed but it was buggy so I mostly use a browser (Vivaldi)
Currently using CONNECT on the phone and browser on PC. More or less exactly the way I used to browse reddit really
I'm not a smartphone guy. I use a browser version on my laptop.
Desktop browser on PC or tablet with multiple Lemmy instances pinned. I get different flavors of lemmy based on subscription. Also wefwef.app and old.lemmy. iOS Mlem and Memmy apps on phone.
Browser on on PC. On mobile, Connect or Lift-off; can't really tell the differences yet.
I was using Jerboa because i was used to Sync for reddit. But, I got a bit tired of how rough around the edges it is, so I switched to just installing my Lemmy instance front page as Firefox "app" on my phone and realized it's not that bad as a UI, so sticking with it for now.
I'll probably try apps again in the future but I feel more open to "installing" good web apps now. Incidentally I tried the same trick with Reddit's mobile interface after Sync stopped working and realized it's also not so awful as I remembered. I did prefer Sync but I'll see how it goes with this method. So it's mobile web interfaces on Android for me for now.
Having said that, in both cases I think I'd prefer a more "simple HTML" type experience like old reddit over these dynamic SPA things they both have going.
Liftoff
Liftoff on Android and Memmy on IOS. I prefer Liftoff.
Mostly liftoff (now), sometimes browser.
Browser. So far I haven't found an app that is user friendly, allows me to switch accounts, and doesn't log me out every 30 minutes.
Firefox when I'm at my PC, and when I'm relaxing I switch between Connect on Android or Memmy on my iPad.
I just recently started using the app Thunder, but also old.lemmy.world as well. Feel almost at home until Sync is released.
wefwef and safari
Browser. Waiting for Sync!
liftoff
I keep going back and forth between Voyager (buggy) and Memmy (missing features).
If scrolling was fixed (iOS) and images stopped partially loading in Voyager, I would stick with that.
If Memmy supported favorites (without subscribing to a community), then I'd probably stick with that.
I tried wefwef (now Voyager) but was annoyed by its account/instance selector I'm now using Liftoff, it's quite usable despite its meh design
Voyager or Memmy on mobile. Regular Lemmy on desktop.
Browser. Jerboa just wasn't working well for me anymore.
Kbin with PWA. Happy enough with that but interested to see what happens with the Artemis app as well
Another vote for liftoff. Has been great for me since I installed it.
Mobile browser, it's a bit clunky but waiting for Sync. I haven't been back to reddit more than a handful of times since before the blackout. Patiently waiting for Sync.
I tried quite a few: Jerboa, wefwef, Thunder, Liftoff, browser (Brave)
Ultimately chose Connect which functions great and has some good customizations I appreciate
Patiently waiting for Sync
Thunder
Iโm using wefwef on iPhone, nothing on my Android tablet yet. Waiting for Sync.
