Thunder has the best UX out of all apps I've tried, and it's not even close. And I'm fairly certain I've tried all of them.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thunder would be the obvious one for me but the lack of a swipe action to return to the fees from a post is a showstopper for me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, that's the one thing for me as well, so I've been using liftoff since it has the functionality, I will move over to sync when it gets released though.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm also a big Sync fan.

Connect is closing the gap quickly, and has not supplanted Liftoff as my daily driver.

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

My problem with connect is that if I touch a comment it changes colour to cyan and makes the text unreadable, apart from that it's pretty decent.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is it available on the app store?

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

You can find Thunder on their Github or using the IzzyOnDroid repo.

There's also a full list of the apps and where to get them over here.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cool thanks. I've never tried side loading anything on my phone before. I might give it a whirl for fun.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Enjoy! The amount of dev support for Lemmy is pretty exciting.

It has good ui, I love it too. But its inability to sort comments on post is dealbreaker for me... or am I missing the updates/features? πŸ˜…πŸ™
For now, I use Liftoff and web-ui..
