Influx of Lemmy brothers and sisters incoming. Already 3K and growing deep, we may as well rebuild together. Let's do this! 🤝

Edit : Yes there are workarounds using Revanced. Check the comments for some awesome help on how to do this if you wish! Just know, in the future it will most likely end up being patched annoyingly and I therefore recommend looking forward to the future with us here.

wefwef.app, Thunder, Connect, and Liftoff are already amazing btw. Boost for Lemmy and Sync for Lemmy are in the works.

Jerboa actually gives off RiF vibes for me, though it's definitely still its own thing.

On pc use this to make it look a bit more like old.reddit. I hope tweaks like this get combined into a single extension later like RES

    Liftoff is awesome, I just couldn't find it when searching the name on the Play Store. Opening this link worked: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.liftoffapp.liftoff

    I ended up sideloading the APK from GitHub, since my Aurora store installation doesn't intercept play store links 😥

    iirc you should be able to set it to open play store links. I know this because when i click on one it asks me what app i want to use with an option of the playstore, aurora store and fdroid.

    I'm using Liftoff which is the best one I've found so far, but I can't figure out how to look up communities which is actually a huge UX issue. Also I have a hard time separating posts on the front page, the cards need a visible border or something.

    I'm looking forward to boost. Already in queue to install once it comes out.

    In Liftoff, click the magnifying glass at the bottom of the app.

    Enter the term you want to search for in the top box.

    You can then pick which server/instance you would like to search.

    Tap the search button, then tap “Communities” at the top of the app.
