I need your opinion and suggestions on the best Lemmy client to use.

P.S., I currently use Voyager as my client.

Tried all, ended up using Summit.

Summit is a wonderful app, and the dev is super helpful. Can't recommend Summit enough.

Wow, that’s the new thing for me!

I've used Memmy, Avalon, and settled on Voyager because Apollo just scratched that itch like nothing else. There's not really any terrible choice other than web/no client app.

So at the very end you choose Voyager, right?

I used to use Boost for Reddit so I naturally started using Boost for Lemmy when it came out. But for some reason I wasn't quite satisfied with it.

I'm currently on Thunder and have been liking it a lot. Don't really hear it talked about much though.

If you’re on iOS, Arctic made some big updates that make it arguably better than Voyager IMO. The biggest thing that got me was color picker themes, so you can literally make your own theme (and save and share them). Also the markdown is pretty great now. Voyager is still pretty solid and very good performance and features.

I use Thunder currently. My first Android Lemmy client was Jerboa, which was fine.

I've tried Voyager, and I can't remember right now why I didn't stick with it, but I ended up just gravitating towards Thunder. It's UI strikes the right balance between feature full and minimal imho.

Thanks for your honest opinion, mate.

The web client is serviceable.

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

What do you mean by serviceable?

I was a Boost for Reddit user. Now using wefwef for Lemmy. Does the job.

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

Boost is available for Lemmy though

Tried voyager, thunder and jerboa, ended up using boost. Not that they are terrible, boost just vibed with me.

As someone who was used to Apollo ~~and is still using it~~, I’ve seen no reason to switch from Voyager.

I tried a handful, and the one I liked best is Thunder. There were aspects I liked about Voyager too, but Thunder was set up better in my opinion.
