I started off using voyager, swapped to mlem because of slight differences I preferred. Recently found out Thunder for Lemmy is available on the apple appstore and it instantly became my favorite. I like how unique the ui is compared to other, it seems better suited for browsing and posting on Lemmy, while the others feel better for the initial transition from Reddit. Very suprised it has barely any downloads or reviews when its easily the best Lemmy app on IOS.

Thunder reminds me of the more “modern” alternative front ends for lemmy some sites have while mlem and vyager feel more like the alternative reddit apps (blue alien) and give a similar experience.

    Currently using Voyager on my Android phone. I like it. Quite the upgrade over Boost (which I was using before, as I really liked Boost for Reddit in the before-times).

    Don’t like going into Lemmy on PC, though. It looks fugly as hell, and the UI looks like something from the 90s. I wonder if there’s a different way of accessing Lemmy through my browser.

    I’m trying out Thunder and it seems great but I can’t figure out how to show the upvote counts. Not sure if it’s a bug or a setting I need to change.

    Boost, it was the perfect Reddit client for me and now it’s the perfect Lemmy client, I didn’t have to sacrifice any aspect of the experience.

    God I love you, Boost my beloved 😍

    I’m on Android. It’ll be a cold day in hell before I give Steve Jobs a penny.

      I loved Apollo! I randomly chose Voyager as my first introduction to Lemmy and it’s been great so far

    Haven’t looked around for a while, but I’ve settled on Voyager.

    https://github.com/aeharding/voyager#readme

    Sadly, F-Droid tries to share the actual binary not a link to it via F-Droid (a la Google Play).

    I have the reference application, Jeroba, installed but I don’t really like it and haven’t seen it updated for a while.

    Eternity. As lacking in updates it may be, still woks well, and it is super customizable.

      I’ve tried almost every Android app for Lemmy, and holy heck, do I love Summit the most. It does everything I need it to and more. It looks great. It’s responsive. And the dev is amazing. They respond to bugs, issues, and feature requests lightning fast. No ads. Not FOSS, which is the only thing I’ve seen anyone gripe about.

      Been using it almost exclusively for a year or so now, and I can’t praise it enough.

    Sync on Android. I’ll go down with the ship, I guess. If ljdawson never comes back I’ll be forced to look into other options eventually, but for now it still works, despite some bugs. It just looks and feels the best to me, and I’ve yet to find another app that can exactly replicate how I have it set up.

      Excellent, just the example I needed to prevent me from examining my own use of Sync. I picked it up straight off of RiF and it’s been mostly fine. Spoilers rarely work and sometimes it just straight up can’t “fetch the image,” but I can do the things I care about, like downvoting and making ad hominem attacks. 10 out of 10 for me.

        I’m in the same boat. The ads have become terrible for me so I’m in the market for a new app anyway. I was hesitant to purchase a subscription because of the low number of releases.

        Glad I didn’t

        […] like downvoting and making ad hominem attacks.

        Thunder can be used for that too, you blithering imbecile.

        (Sync alumnus, only on Thunder because I moved to iOS. Sync is still the best 😢)

      I have used others and to me nothing else has the right blend of stability, performance, good defaults, and ability to customize. Boost is best on android.

    I use Voyager on Android. It’s a quality app that just works. On my iPad I use a safari plug in called sink-it.

      I’m a bit confused. Looking at the App Store Sink it appears to only be for Reddit/Twitter and not Lemmy or am I missing something?

      I was swapping back and forth between that and mlem for a while, I like the custom interaction bar in mlem. Feels nice to finetune, but voyager just works and has plenty of settings to get the necessary customizations. I like that the issue for me is that they are all good, so I just end up using them all.

    Voyager on iOS. It’s the best for my use case and I like the UI the most.
