I tried one called Lemmur that I downloaded off F-Droid, however, it can not find this instance (lemmy.world). I want one that’s open-source, and preferably from F-Droid (because screw Google). Which one do you guys use?
I’m using jerboa right now. Got it from fdroid and it works really well!
Enjoying Liftoff as of now. eagerly awaiting Sync for Lemmy
Boost for Lemmy will be out soon, just using the website/not using anything until then. Boost was the best Reddit app by far. And yeah, like others said, Sync is coming too.
I’ve been bouncing between Liftoff and Connect. I loved Sync for Reddit so I’ll be using that when it comes out, though I also tried and liked Boost, Joey, and Infinity for Reddit.
I tried Jerboa but it was missing quite a few features at the time, but it’s also really new so that wasn’t a problem.
I do spend most of my time on Kbin so I just use the mobile web interface.
Joey was my go to. Do you know if the dev plans to make a Lemmy based App?
I haven’t seen anything but I haven’t looked into it either. It would be nice to see because I used Joey before I switched to Sync. But I always like trying out different apps.
not a native app, but wefwef.app is 🔥
Finally gave it a quick run through… The choices for buttons and swiping are bass ackwards
You can change the tap/swipe behavior in settings.
Wef wef is pretty great, very impressive for a non native app
I was using jerboa earlier but wefwef looks way better than that. It feels a little slow on the animations for my phone though.
For me personally, and the app experience I’m accustomed to, Connect and wefwef are the current jam.
I am creating my own just for fun. let me know if you want to try it out. come join the discord for preview: https://discord.gg/4QxXNwJ7
Sure? I can test on tablet
Jerboa should be the recommendation based on what you are looking for.
Open source, saw someone else mention they got it on whatever F-droid is, stable af (0 crashes on pixel5).
Bonuses, it has buttons, looks clean, runs smooth, swiping isn’t obsfucating UX/UI as it does expected things like going back. (wefwef is painful if you can’t get behind IOS UI chicanery)
F-Droid is like the play store, but with all FOSS apps. You have to side load it, and then it essentially side loads all the apps you want from it’s store. Its pretty neat!
Try wefwef.app. It’s a PWA, and you can easily set it as an icon on your home screen. Supposedly it looks a lot like the big iOS app (apollo?) that started the reddit blackout. Has nice swiping gestures. Works an absolute treat.
Really impressed with wefwef - one of the few webapps that rivals a native app.
Wefwef is my top choice right now and Connect is my second favorite.
Wefwef looks too iOS for my Material You Android
Yeah, I do agree that it feels a little out of place on Android, but currently I have been using it because it still feels polished and I haven’t had many bugs with it. Lemmy clients in general are in their early days and many are quite rough around the edges. I’ve had a lot of bugs with most of them.
Connect for Lemmy has a Material You style to it and feels like at home on Android. It uses your current Material color scheme and feels a bit similar to Sync for Reddit.
Liftoff! Is superb. I don’t have any complaints about it. My only gripe is finding the same content repeatedly. I just need to subscribe to more communities probably
I’ve been using connect, I like it more than jerboa at least. But I’m planning on switching to Sync once it’s out
I bounce between wefwef and Liftoff. When one has a hiccup, I just swap to the other.
Waiting for Sync, if it has 25% of the user experience it had for reddit I’m a happy person
No one mentioned Summit yet? I’ve tried Jerboa, Liftoff, Thunder, Connect, Lemmur… pretty much all of the available Lemmy client and in the end I uninstalled all of them but Summit.
