Thunder. It was the first I found when leaving Reddit and it had been a good experience so I’ve not looked at other ones.
Firefox. I used jerboa for a while but it got confused one of the times the admins forgot to renew the domain or cert or something plus you have to remember all the names for the emotes.
It’s one if Lemmy’s main advantages that the websites are light enough on resources to not need a client. Praise open source :)
Blorp because it works fine and I liked the name.
A web browser. Why limit myself with an app, when Firefox can do anything I want?
I just type in the URL into phone browser and use it that way
Connect. First one I happened to try, it works well, gets good updates, and is Canadian
I have Jerboa installed from F-Droid, but I use Firefox.
Can I ask why anyone doesn’t use, like, a browser? What’s the benefit?
The browser doesn’t remember where I was in my feed when I go back from reading a post. It’s also slower
The same one I use on my laptop, Firefox/lemmy-ui.
I use boost because it was what I used for reddit and it has a good swipe view.
Fuck apps, anything that can be done in a browser will be done in a browser for me
“Where’s my battery?”
Voyager, cause I like it the best. I tried a bunch.
I was using Sync for Lemmy until a week or two ago. It was nice and familiar because that was my reddit app of choice prior to api-gate, but for some reason it kept frequently erroring out and not showing posts or images. I switched to Voyager and so far it’s been pretty good
I was a sync user for many years on Reddit. Then also I paid for the subscription on Lemmy. The app stopped being updated so I left. It had been around a year at the time since anyone heard from the dev.
I haven’t checked back. What’s the latest? Still got the “LJ does this but he always comes back! He’s so great!!” crowd; or has everyone jumped ship?
Honestly, I don’t know. The app had been really spotty for months, I didn’t check about updates or anything, I just jumped ship. If the maintainers abandoned it though, that would explain why it broke.
Because it’s garbage and I’m just too lazy to switch
Voyager.
I used “Reddit is Fun” for years on Reddit but when it came time to switch to Lemmy I picked Voyager (wefwef at the time) because the UI was the most similar. I tried many of the other popular apps and I was happy with most of them, but Voyager was (and is) my favorite.
It’s simple. Lots of text. Easy to use. Looks nice.
