I’m currently using Memmy and it’s giving me Apollo vibes but I’m open to testing out other apps ^^

All of them rig now.

So far really liking wefwef, but connect and liftoff are really good as well.

The app ecosystem will be changing a lot in the next couple months so I will keep testing whatever keeps coming out.

Used Connect but switched to mobile browser. Lemmy behave way less buggy and way more stable, while UI and functionality are just fine. Will try Sync when it comes to beta though.

Mostly Jerboa, but also Thunder and LiftOff. All of them function nicely.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

The web app for now. works well for me.

@DuskLoaf Just started using Ice Cubes for Mastodon (for this reply) but also using WefWef and Mlem.

Liftoff is great so far. Used Jebora, but it was having some connectivity issues and the comment structure was a little hard to differentiate. Liftoff is really nice and notifies you when you lose connection to the server. Never had an iPhone so didn't use apollo unfortunately because I heard great things. I did hear that the Boost team are releasing a new app soon which boost was IMO the best one I ever used

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Firefox. My initial experience with Jerboa wasn't great but it is improving.

I'd like to know what I am doing wrong when trying to log-in. I can't be the only person having issues.

I have this account (Hazdaz) and I've tried logging into wefwef, Connect and Jerboa. On ALL three apps on my Samsung S21FE I get an error message that my credentials/password isn't correct. I've used my PC and reset the password. Changed at least 2 times now and tried again logging into these 3 Android apps and the error is the same. What can I possibly be doing wrong? The only way I can access Lemmy is on a computer. I've asked about this a few days ago and some helpful people replied but nothing they suggested worked.

How can this be so difficult?

Memmy for iOS

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm using Thunder. It's working well except maybe for the facts that upvoting takes forever and I keep getting 502 errors all the time, but I'm unsure whether that's Thunder's fault or it's just because my is instance is lemmy.world lol

I'm loving Liftoff, but I am waiting for Boost to be available cuz the previews posted of it look more like RIF, and I always preferred RIF.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I've been using a bunch. I've tried liftoff, Jerboa, the official PWA and wefwef. So far, I'm liking the vibes I'm getting from liftoff.

As a kbin user do these apps work for that or not? I chose kbin because i prefer the web UX.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I use kbin as well. As you stated, the interface is appealing.
I just migrated to the Lemmyverse so I'm trying new stuff out but so far, kbin is for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Tried lemmy and hated all that whitespace, kinda reminded me why I dislike normal reddit and always used old.reddit instead. So yeah, im a kbiner :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

You can browse in dark mode. It is available in the settings. Some instances allow for compact dark mode as well.

I went from never using Lemmy to using it so much more just from that simple change.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The web ui is solid, but still patiently waiting for the Artemis app. Looks like it’s shaping up nice.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Same, really looking forward to a public release for Artemis!

I'm with Liftfoff, until Beyond reaches its usable stage (RIP Infinity).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Between Jerboa and Connect atm. Prefer the look of Jerboa but it definitely is buggier. All of a sudden it wouldn't let me subscribe to communities so spending more time on Connect. Have signed up for boost though do will check that once it's released.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Memmy ftw. But also, developing my own app for macOS right now :)

[–] LemmyKravitz 2 points 2 years ago

jerboa, liftoff & wefwef, although I see liftoff more.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Jerboa for browsing everything. And then Slide while at work because I disabled NSFW in Slide.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I am using Liftoff and Jerboa with lemmy.ml - I prefer Liftoff. Lemmy.ml is pretty slow recently.
I also have a kbin account with subscriptions to the same communities, and on mobile I am using the web app: Howto install a web app.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Liftoff! Why? Because I love swiping back from the middle of the screen instead of the sides.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Was using wefwef but could not get over the PWA feel, now using Mlem and loving it!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Kbin + kbin enhancement script + ublock through a Kiwi Browser "app" install. I tried all the Lemmy specific apps, including wefwef, and couldn't stand any of them. Some were completely borked because beehaw was still on .17, others were incredibly buggy or they had very weird layout & design choices that made the usability experience just too weird.
