I’m on android but I’ve tried a bunch (connect, summit, wefwef, another I forget) but I think Jerboa is the best. Seems the most functional by far. Can’t wait for boost, though.
Is there a better way to search for communities outside of your account’s home instance on Liftoff that I haven’t found? Connect currently has it beat on that feature, unless I’ve missed something obvious.
I don’t think I tried that actually, shall give it a go. I mostly just wanted to give Jerboa some love. It’s fun trying the new ones but people seem to overlook it a bit.
I have all the crypto stuff disabled. I’ve seen people say that Brave makes their GPU usage go crazy but they never go into much detail and in those posts there’s always half of the comments saying they have the same issue and the other half saying they dont, maybe they have the brave tokens enabled? I don’t know much about crypto but I suppose that could be the issue
Anyway I just use it because I saw Brave had a new search engine and I wanted to try it and then I forgot to switch back to whatever I was using before. But I don’t have any issues with Brave and I don’t have a reason to use a different one right now so I’ll keep using Brave for now
That’s cool! I thought it was all Swift but I checked the GitHub and yeah it’s using react-native. Hopefully that’ll mean cross platform support is planned in the future.
I need one that allows me to submit too. For now Wefwef is still beating Memmy on look/feel for me. Liftoff! has the best featureset but I don’t like the looks so much.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: [email protected]

Tried all of them, liftoff is way better
It’s so fuckin stable. Way few timeouts too!

Glad I’m not the only one. It feels like I need to add a new instance every time I look for a community outside the ones I’ve already added. :/
Liftoff was really slow/buggy for me and I think searching for communities was hard
Liftoff is pretty awesome. I find it smoother than Jerboa.
After using boost for years the biggest thing I hate about jerboa is that short and long taps on comments is backwards. Drives me nuts.
This is literally my one and only complaint for jerboa. Its maddening, I need an option to change the short and long taps lmao
Same here, my one complaint aside from other small nitpicky things.
I KEEP LONG PRESSING AND THE UPVOTE/DOWNVOTE BUTTONS DISAPPEAR! WHO WOULD WANT THIS?!
thunder is really good though

I stand corrected connect is actually amazing
I was disappointed when I pressed the back button on the home page and it came up with a dialogue to exit the app
They asked if I wanted to exit connect instead of the obvious pun of “do you want to dis-connect”
I want to dis-combobulate myself after reading that pun
I miss the left-right scrolling navigation of bacon reader 😭
I just want to view one post and it’s comments at a time and swipe left and right to switch between posts. Why does no other app do that?
As a former boost user, I’m waiting for Boost for Lemmy
Been on Memmy since the early stages and… damn that development speed!
Yeah it’s so impressive isn’t it
Ngl I think I like wefwef more after using both. Something just feels cleaner about it
I just use lemmy.blahaj.zone as a Brave home screen app, the other apps I’ve tried are either missing features or I don’t like how they look
But Boost was my favorite for Reddit so I’m also waiting for that and then I’ll see if I stay on the web app or move to Boost or maybe try a new one
Boost was so good!
And the best part is that you get to support Brave by mining cryptocurrency for them whenever you use it

Give Mlem for iOS a shot.
Ngl these names are so cute
Patiently waiting for Sync to release on Android…
or boost…
… to rule all iPhones?
Does memmy do kbin, though?
Both…… both is good
Been using Memmy since I moved away from Reddit and love it. Might be time to pick up Swift so I can help the dev.
It’s built in react native iirc
That’s cool! I thought it was all Swift but I checked the GitHub and yeah it’s using react-native. Hopefully that’ll mean cross platform support is planned in the future.

How do i get Memmy? I can’t find any way to download it for android.
buy an iphone and download it
I think at one point they were planning on having an Android version too, but have scrapped it for now.
Probably because Lemmy apps for Android are saturated as hell so they decided to focus on the smaller base
There are none as good as Memmy though. And none with the design of Apollo (except wefwef, but that’s a web app. It’s ok, but it causes problems)
It might only be for iPhone.
Can we get any of these alts without using Google?
Memmy is an iOS app so no Google needed.
A couple are available on F-droid Https://search.f-droid.org/?q=Lemmy
Memmy for my phone, wefwef for the desktop. Best of both worlds
