I am very new to Lemmy, and I am using the Eternity app. But I am wondering which one you guys are using, and maybe there are better one's than Eternity without me knowing

Me too. Voyager is a fine name but there was something dumb/charming about the name Wefwef.

[-] [email protected] 47 points 4 months ago

Voyager because it looks and feels like Apollo for Reddit (RIP BTW)

[-] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

And it seems to be the most trustworthy when it comes to data imo

Boost. I used it on Reddit, continued to use it through the mod workaround, switched to Boost for Lemmy after they shut that down yesterday, and now here I am.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago

Same, boost layout is just so clean. Sad I couldn't keep my ad free existence from the other app but guy deserves to be paid.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

Same, Boost is really good.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

I also agree with Boost. I was super bummed when it got shut down. It actually gave me the kick to join Lemmy.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

I also use Boost.

The only thing I think it's missing is a seamless way to open other instances' homepage.

I have tried almost all clients on Android.

Best In my opinion:

  1. Thunder
  2. Jerboa
  3. Raccoon for Lemmy
  4. Voyager

To me thunder has the best UI and UX overall, even though I prefer the "card view" feed from Raccoon and some functions of Jerboa.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago

I've moved from Boost to Thunder. It's a great experience so far.

Jerboa. From the Lemmy devs and works great.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 4 months ago

Voyager

Excellent app

I like and use Thunder. It's cross platform on iOS and Android so I get the same consistent interface from my iPad and my android phone.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 4 months ago

Damn, I’m the only one using Mlem?

[-] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago

Also an Mlem user, here

[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Nope, I do too and I like it. I have no complaints so I am not too worried about missing out on some other features.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

There’s dozens of us!

[-] [email protected] 13 points 4 months ago

Boost and got the paid version. It's clean and responsive.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

That's what I use, too. I think most of what makes Boost so great is that the developer initially made it for Reddit, so they put a lot of work into the user experience and it runs great. Plus since I primarily used it for Reddit, it feels very familiar to use it for Lemmy.

Jerboa. Of the ones I have tried, it feels the most like Baconreader (RIP) to me.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago

Eternity is a solid one, was my main for quite some time until I used Voyager while waiting for Eternity to to update to work with the latest Lemmy at the time, and ended up sticking with Voyager.

I do miss the user avatars though, voyager doesn't have those.

Eternity

Infinity was my favorite Reddit app and I saw that Eternity existed, so I switched to it the moment it releasedits first alpha. I see no reason to use anything else unless it breaks and is no longer maintained.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

Jerboa hits that same sweet spot that RIF did.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

I just use the mobile browser. I use Mull for that.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

The Mull browser project shut down along with the rest of DivestOS. You may want to consider IronFox.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Oh, thanks! I'll move over there. Appreicate it!

I'm using summit. It's pretty good

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Another shoutout to summit, coming from an ex-Sync user. It's very nice.

Jerboa sorely lacks the absolute basic feature of searching for keywords in posts. It only supports searching for community names. I can't think of any other app that does NOT support general search.

So Voyager for me, mostly because it has the most active developer.

Haven't seen anyone mention connect

Closest to reddit is fun. When RiF got blocked was when I made the switch.

I used boost until I saw it was sending me dark pattern ads from an ad network, to which the dev had noted they reported it, until it happened again and I moved to voyager, where I no longer have such a problem.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago
[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

I am using boost for lemmy for some time now and am very happy with that app. I've tried jerboa, summit and thunder before but they felt somewhat incomplete at the time I used them.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago
[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

I'm using sync, not to sure about tbh

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Mobile browser because I have more control over what gets left behind on my device. I don't really trust apps, I don't like putting other people's code on my device unless I can review it, it's a trust thing and as a q υ є є я American I'd like to have a as little that could potentially be spying on my as possible in life.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

I like Jerboa because it's very straightforward and has no frills.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Mlem on iPhone - I like it best

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Thunder, because it works best with accessibility features like VoiceOver and TalkBack: https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Thunder, it's really good

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago
[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Same here. I tried Boost and didn't like it. Eternity works just fine.
