We all be going to Reddit and letting people know about the migration to Lemmy.... And make sure to promote one of the 3rd party apps to the redditors. The best one I've tried so far is Connect for Lemmy on the Google play store.

Wefwef is really good too…feels like Apollo

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yo thanks for recommending wefwef. I think its the best way to view lemmy and now I've stopped using Connect for Lemmy. Still waiting on Sync for Lemmy though.

Ooo this does work. I’m really digging wefwef. This is great. Thanks for the link!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Yay! I’m glad you like it too πŸ˜„ if you go into settings > install app you will also see instructions on how to add an app icon to your homepage πŸ˜‰

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yes it’s awesome! Glad you got it working!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

is a web app, and a really good one. Im using it with hermit on android

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I’m using it on my iPhone right now

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a web app so you can just use Safari and add it to home screen. It'll be more or less like using an app but through your web browser.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

i've never heard of a web app, til.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Using it right now. It’s awesome. Loving the community as well.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It is available. It’s a trick because it’s not in the app store. Go to https://wefwef.app and follow the instructions

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm using Connect right now and I'm quite happy with it. Though when Sync launches I'll be switching to that. I used Sync pro for reddit for years and would be happy to pay for that again.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ayy another Syncer in the wild. Can't wait till it releases.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Try out Liftoff. I like it quite a bit. Jerboa kept crashing on me, and Liftoff had a certain feature that Connect doesn't have (yet?)

I'll keep bouncing around and checking them all out over the next few months

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Have tried most and Liftoff is easily the best I've found so far. Former Sync Pro user.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm sure you're aware that LJDawson, the sync dev is porting sync over for lemmy too

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I had never heard of Lemmy till I saw that announcement. Probably not the only one, but now here I am.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yep! Can't wait.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm still using Jerboa for now, but I'm switching to Boost for Lemmy as soon as it's out.
