theres so many lemmy clients i guess thats one of the benefits of lemmy being licensed under agpl and has a free api
Lemmy UI and Jerboa seem to work well for me and they are both open-source.
Sync on my phone and Photon on desktop.
Eternity is one my favorite client
I access Lemmy through the browser all the time. The experience is solid and consistent across devices and I need access to both mod and (occasionally) admin tools.
I'm using a mix of Sync and Eternity. I was using Infinity for Reddit before the migration.
Because Sync came first, it's still my default way to navigate Lemmy but Eternity is slowly growing on me. I prefer to alternate between a few apps to stay up to date on the alternatives, and to ensure I don't become dependant on a single app/interface.
I've also tested a few times Photon, great web UI which can be installed as a PWA.

Voyager is 90% Apollo and is absolutely solid. Try Voyager App. Intuitive, beautifully designed and based off Christianβs source code.
I've found Summit the best for me, personally, on Android. I've been able to configure it closest to how I used RIF which is what I wanted.
I use Connect. Ive not had any issues.
Im not a power user either though, so maybe theres some features not here, you may want. No idea
But theres custom themes. You can pick your own colors for the different elements.
I was previously using Memmy and itβs good, but it hasnβt been updated for a while. Iβm giving Avelon a try and it is nice so far.
Hell yeah, 30% sync users. I've always thought Sync was the best reddit client, and now it's the best Lemmy client.
To be honest I was extremely skeptical about Sync because I didn't use it for Reddit and I thought that the default web-ui is pretty neat even on my mobile phone. But curiosity got me and I installed it, even though it's not FLOSS and it has ads in it which are two no-goes for me. Still I'm using it on the phone predominately, but I hate myself for it.
after trying a few, Eternity was the first one that worked without errors on my older Android phone. i enjoyed using Infinity previously and i'm glad it was repurposed
Just an interesting note, I see a lot of talk about Avalon in the comments being amazing but not as many votes as other clients. It seems pretty new, but already has a loyal userbase. Wish it was on Android so I could check it out!
