Tried a few different ones and like boost the best. I finally just paid for the non-ad tier. One time cost of 3.99.

Recently I have been trying Connect, which is another great app. Connect has improved a lot since I first tried it, also doesn't have any ads. But all things considered - Boost is bit more polished than connect. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Rekorse@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 years ago (1 child) What's wrong with voyager?
