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
Voyager because it looks and feels like Apollo for Reddit (RIP BTW)
And it seems to be the most trustworthy when it comes to data imo
I’m using Voyager too!
My Apollo still works for browsing somehow
This.
Voyager.
Me too. Voyager is a fine name but there was something dumb/charming about the name Wefwef.
Connect
seconding Connect, it Works
Yeah third for connect, and tbe creator is super responsive and genuinely tries
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.
I have tried almost all clients on Android.
Best In my opinion:
- Thunder
- Jerboa
- Raccoon for Lemmy
- Voyager
To me thunder has the best UI and UX overall, even though I prefers the “card view” feed from Raccoon and some functions of Jerboa.
i agree. Thunder is the best. It’s even better than paid apps
I’ve moved from Boost to Thunder. It’s a great experience so far.
Did you rank these in a particular order, or is it just four that you like?
I used Jerboa when I first transitioned from Reddit, but eventually someone recommended Voyager because it is similar to the RiF app I used to use. I like the interface of Voyager more than Jerboa, and I’ve been using it for a while, but I’m still open to checking out other apps.
Jerboa. From the Lemmy devs and works great.
Jerboa. Of the ones I have tried, it feels the most like Baconreader (RIP) to me.
I like Jerboa because it’s very straightforward and has no frills.
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.
Same, but you can repatch boost for reddit to work again. Check the boost Lemmy sub, it has a pretty big post on it.
Jerboa hits that same sweet spot that RIF did.
Voyager
Excellent app
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.
Ya, not supporting full search is weird…
And also, there is only one font size for the whole thing, ui, comments, posts, etc… Not good…
And other several minor things. Other then that, it is awesome.
I wouldn’t call a half-baked search functionality as “minor” but that’s probably just me.
I didn’t call that minor. I said “other minor things”.
Understood. Thanks for clarifying.
I had to switch away from Jerboa because it would crash any time I’d create a link with custom text in my comments. I switched to Voyager and it’s on lot more stable.
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.
Sync
Damn, I’m the only one using Mlem?
There’s dozens of us!
Also an Mlem user, here
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.
