The Boost android client for Lemmy is displaying these dark pattern ads pretending to be system notifications. What security/privacy conscious Lemmy clients do you recommend?

    Why would you need an app when an account settings page and a web interface for posts exist? What need is that combination not meeting for you?

      Yup, lemmy works fine in a browser.
      Also basically no apps support mod and admin actions or do it weird.
      I’ll say that DMs could be a bit better in the browser, but otherwise it’s fine.

      I don’t undestand the need to have an app for stuff that works just fine on browser. In my books less apps is always better. The desktop and mobile version of Lemmy on browser gets the job done perfectly and is way more polished looking aswell.

      Mobile browsers suck imho. Everything has to reload all the time, no good notifications, it’s slow etc
