Using connect cause it's the first one that popped up on a search when I originally switched. Can anyone give me good reasons to use a different one on this list?

    Voyager is basically a clone of Apollo, with support for both Android's and iOS's UI styles. Apollo was one of the best Reddit experiences, and it often won awards every year. Also, Voyager is pretty damn polished, it's super reliable, and it has one of the most complete Lemmy feature sets.

    If you're an Android user who has never used Apollo, it's worth a look to see what all the hype was about. If you're on iOS and miss Apollo, Voyager is kind of a no brainer.

    Only problem is that the app and play store builds still don't have push notifications implemented. Also no mod tools quite yet.

    It also needs a little refinement here and there - the pull to load is very short and you have to do it slowly or it snaps back immediately. Its too easy to tap the wrong thing in the compressed mode, and the slide to votes need more weight and snap.

    But these are nits - its really good compared to other ios apps. I really appreciate the long-press to block some communities. Until Lemmy learns how to better filter and reduce redundancy, this has been my most-used feature (sorry, all things yiff)
