I’m trying to stop using Reddit, but it having an app I know about makes it have quite an advantage.

I know there’s a few apps out there I can use to browse Lemmy, but I’m not sure about their names and the different features they offer.

    I’ve tried jeroba, liftoff and thunder. My experience with jeroba is mostly negative. It’s not good enough to be a full replacement for using a web browser and with the new update it crashes on my older, not bleeding edge phone. It can’t even open lemmy links people post half the time.

    Thundar is ok. I’m not a fan of its interface but at least you can actually browse communities you aren’t subscribed to.

    The third one I’ve tried is Liftoff and it’s the best one I’ve seen so far. It’s about the same in terms of quality as Boost for reddit. You can explore new communities in other instances, have more than one active account logged in to be able to simultaneously use different instances and best of all there’s a search.
