Sadly I think I'm finally ready to put Sync out to pasture since it isn't maintained.

Voyager has been pretty decent for me.

    Thunder is my favourite. It's an android app and I got it from F-Droid (Izzy on Droids Repo). Clean and customizable interface, convenient features like for example multi account support. I would recommend it!

    Currently I use Boost for Lemmy, I even bought it to support it. Sadly there was no update since last july 😐

    Has it needed an update? He was really good with the Reddit app. If there isn't an active problem with the app tho, it may not need updated. It's what I use, and I haven't had any issues with it

    Edit: just to get onto my parent comment, he is working on an update for 0.19.9 features, posted 2 days ago. It seems there may have been some departure from regular updates, so hard to defend that, but seems like he's back on it?

    Summit is peak Lemmy!

    Awesome app, awesomer dev. If it doesn't do what you want, talk to them and they'll probably do it.

    Not FOSS, but free and no ads.

    Would not be enjoying Lemmy near as much without it thanks to all the great features like multi-community support and endless customization.

    Summit holds practically the same quality as Sync for Reddit had... If not more at this point.

    And yeah, the dev is great and very communicative, he must love his own project to be so active regarding it, and it makes sense I have tried the app since its conception and it has greatly improved.

    I don't want to bash other Lemmy clients.... But I have tried nearly all of them and Summit always speaks "smoother" for me.

    I agree, they definitely have to be passionate about it, and I feel it really shows. Truly shocked it never seems as popular as some others. I've given a number of bug reports and feedback/suggestions and they've all been addressed shockingly quick, and it's fun to think this or that bit is there just because I agreed nicely. 😇

    I'm pretty happy with Voyager. It's not perfect but it's good

    This is actually my favorite too! I downloaded like 5-6 different ones a few months ago and tried them all and played with the settings to see which I liked the layout of best. This one was my favorite.

    Apollo, er, Voyager.

    I use Eternity. AFAIK it doesn't have ads and it's pretty much what I'm looking for. I tried others but they had ads and I couldn't tolerate that.

    jerboa.

    summit is the only other client that i tried and wasn't irritated by, but I've reverted back to jerboa after a few days. i like how streamlined jerboa is, and how it just works and always has.

    it looks like the summit dev is working overtime getting everything in order and finishing several feature rollouts, so I'll check that out again in a couple of months.

    I have a hard time believing Summit Dev has time for a day job! 😂

    I feel every bug is patched same/next day and they keep constantly adding to the feature set. There have been a ton of upgrades this year, and it was perfect to me once they added custom user tags, so now everything is just a bonus.

    I like all their decisions and they take feedback in what works for us, and at this point you can turn almost anything on/off so you get what you want.

    the dev seems very dedicated, that's why I'll give summit another try later. quick links don't work yet, not all the setting toggles l are functionally tied yet to the features. there are also several tiny post/link/layout issues that I notice but don't have to deal with on jerboa.

    I'm interested to see where summit goes, it is the only other lemmy client I used for more than a couple hours.

    Tried Voyager and Jerboa. I prefer Voyager slightly over Jerboa

    I'm locked in to Jerboa. Not the most robust, and it doesn't show me notifications for mentions or DMs, but it has the perfect layout and aesthetic I want after a decade of using RIF.

    I was using Liftoff before it depreciated to the point of non-functionality.

    I have been enjoying Raccoon though development might have slowed down after a previous dev. left sometime back.

    Boost is a good alternative.

    Right now, it's Thunder.

    Yep I ditched Sync a while ago for that reason. Currently on Eternity as it supports foldable devices pretty well.

    I use both the Voyager app on my phone, and the vger.app website on my laptop.

    I'm still pretty new and I've only tried one mobile client so far. I'm pretty fond of Mlem. It seems to do what I need it to and it's pretty intuitive for me. Although it only works on iOS so that might not be useful for you depending on your mobile situation.

    Artic. Easy to navigate, very good privacy.

    Been using Avelon since the start. Is there anything better?

    If you liked RIF, you'll like Jerboa.

    I bounce between Voyager and Arctic. On iOS. Voyager on Android.

    I was using Boost but noticed some missing features, so I switched to Raccoon. I like it so far

  • [–] 3 points 1 year ago

    I like Jerboa, mainly because it doesn't have ads.
