Stillhart,

I’m not a fan. It’s laid out weird, like a Apple app or something. I just couldn’t get used to it.

Connect and Jerboa are the two I’m trying to decide between now.

blirdo,

I’m using Liftoff until Boost (formerly Boost for Reddit) releases their app. Boost was an amazing experience on Reddit so I have to imagine it’ll be equally good with Lemmy. So far Liftoff has been very good though. No real complaints but would love to see more customization options in the future.

Liftoff is what I’ve settled on, so far. I’ve found it to have the best performance of all the Android options.

Thunder has gotten a lot better, as well. It’s now the fastes for me, by far.

Thunder was pretty snappy. I didn’t know about that one, so I tried it just now. I’m afraid to say I think I like Liftoff better still, because Thunder uses swipe gestures for a few things and is missing a few “top” sorts, but it seemed like it has potential.

MentalEdge,

It didn’t have top sorting at all a few versions ago 😅

Theres a dozen of us contributing to it every day, it’s coming along very nicely, and making it usable without the gestures is a current focus. It’s already possible with posts, but next up are comments.

Keep it in mind! Check back a bit later and I’m sure you’ll be impressed.

Cool, sounds like it’s coming along well. I’ll give it another shot next update or so :)

Gestures can now be entirely disabled, and you can turn on buttons for posts and comments. All top sort options are now available.

Also play store release within next 24 hours.

Cool, thanks for the update! Coincidentally, Liftoff put gestures with no option to turn them off in their latest release, so I’ve been a little unsatisfied about that. I’ll try Thunder again.

The play store release is a huge deal too. Ngl that I probably wouldn’t have used Thunder if I had to manually update it from github for each new release.

Thanks!

PizzasDontWearCapes,

I switched to Liftoff from Jerboa.

There are a few features that either don’t exist or I haven’t found (jump to next comments thread), but it’s worked really well overall.

For context, I use Relay when I’m on Reddit

Check out Thunder! It’s my favorite Lemmy app so far coming from Relay. Similar to Jerboa but a lot smoother in my experience.

Galaxyboy_3598,

Truthfully, it was my least favorite of all of the Lemmy apps. I didn’t like it’s user interface. Was it recently updated?

I tried liftoff a few hours ago and same. Didn’t mind jerboa, but connect just clicked with me… I think because the flow is extremely similar to boost.

I couldn’t shake the same feeling I get when using discord when using liftoff. Just no.

To each their own. That’s why there are options.

Which one do you prefer?

Galaxyboy_3598,

I dabbled with Jerboa, Thunder, Liftoff, Connect, and wefwef.

I like Jerboa the most.

RampageDon,

Jerboa and Connect have been my two favorite

ahto,

Same. It looks and feels like “my first flutter app”. I switched to Thunder, which is also made with flutter, but is much more pleasant to use.

Xartle,

It’s my favorite of the options so far, I wish I wouldn’t default to lemmy.world, but that may be pilot error…

TwinTurbo,

There are a few default instances in the settings page, and you can add your own as well.

photonic_sorcerer,
@photonic_sorcerer@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Yeah, I think you can change the default page in settings.

sloonark,

You can remove the lemmy.world instance once you’ve added your own. Long press.
