I tried one called Lemmur that I downloaded off F-Droid, however, it can not find this instance (lemmy.world). I want one that's open-source, and preferably from F-Droid (because screw Google). Which one do you guys use?

As someone who has 6 lemmy apps installed, and constantly cycling between them, I'd say for now connect and liftoff are the best although each has issues that the other migitates. I'd say you won't go wrong with either option, with it mostly being personal preference.

As a former user of infinity for reddit connect feels a bit closer layout to what I was used to, but liftoff seems to have a slightly better ui.

Connect is doing awesome!

Yeah, that's on me as I'm still working out the documentation. Essentially you prepend any user or community with the service you are attempting to hit up, so to view posts from android you would navigate to lemmy:[email protected].

Feel free to reach out with any other questions!

I did this for several days/updates and then settled on Jerboa.
