I’m currently using Jerboa but curious to know whether any of the ones popping up are a better experience!

Sync for Lemmy but it’s a bit basic right now
Flexing on people
wow what a flex 😂
That was mean… And awesome!
Any chance for alpha/internal testers like we were on the Sync for Reddit?
Wink, wink!
Cheers brother! Nice to see you around here.
Wait… Is this posted from Sync for lemmy? 😍😍😍 I can’t wait!
Nice flex.
I was a little bit confused until I saw your name
browser. i’ll revisit that decision in a few months.
Same. I’ve installed a few apps to keep an eye on their development, but web is still my favourite for now. Some of the apps have gestures and easily collapsible threads, but UIs aren’t completely polished yet.
Try wefwef it’s a web app with gesture support. Seems to be one of the more featured GUIs so far.
Connect for Lemmy.
It’s being updated to add features and fix bugs pretty much daily. Which means it is improving at a crazy speed.
It’s come a long way since I first started using it - about 3 days ago!
Another (mostly) happy Connect user here! It’s crazy the blistering pace at which the Dev keeps pumping out updates. I keep alternating between Connect and Thunder. I think Liftoff still needs some UI polish and it doesn’t handle jumping to communities in different instances very gracefully.
Connect here too. Jerboa kept crashing on me. When it did load it couldn’t connect. When it could connect it wouldn’t load in icons and left some posts blank.
Right?? if the dev keeps going as strong as it’s been so far I can see Connect being a competent option even after Sync Launches.
Jerboa, Thunder, and Liftoff.
- Jerboa is the most complete, but it’s not very good… It’s slow and the UI is very bland.
- Thunder is great, and has some very nice features. It’s still pretty buggy though.
- Liftoff might be the best out of these 3, but there’s some very bad bugs/problems when dealing with separate instances.
IMO. I use Lemmy on desktop most of the time anyways.
Liftoff for me. Really happy with it.
Connect for Lemmy on Android.
Jerboa had too many breaking bugs for me.
I’m testing connect right now and so far it works very well. Unfortunately Jerboa crashed for me all the time since the last update. I’m still hoping for a bacon reader version for Lemmy.
Using Liftoff, it’s pretty good!
Liftoff is still ‘early access’ and yet… so polished. It immediately became my go-to.
I can’t believe that just a couple of weeks ago, we had a single (Android) solution. Suddenly, it’s hard to keep track of all the clients…
I literally have 5 installed. Exciting times. The birth of a social network created by users for users.
Yeah just found it today and I quite like it so far. Had been using Jerboa but the after v0.0.37 that was pushed out made it’s just crashing on startup since I was logged into lemmy.world. However I would like to see an option to not merge the feeds of all logged in accounts. I prefer a UX to switch what account I’m viewing with and see only the subscriptions of the selected account.
Apparently my desired feature is already present. From the Home tab the Subscribed/Local/All button expands to let you pick which logged in account to show.
Wefwef has been great and it’s a PWA so no need to download.
Honestly, not sure at this point. Jerboa has the fullest features as far as everything goes. Every other app has been missing some key functionally for me to varying degrees. Not to say any of them aren’t good, but none have truly, ultimately impressed me yet. Sync was my go-to on Reddit, so I have very high hopes for that launch. If I had to pick one alternative that I could use, but still doesn’t quite tic all the boxes, it’s Thunder. Especially right now, as Jerboa crashes on launch.
EDIT: Liftoff is where it’s at. It has all the features other third-party apps are still missing.
So far Liftoff has my vote on Android.
I am unable to find it in the playstore. Could you link to it? There are too many apps called “LiftOff” haha
It even has the poop post on a screenshot there
Okay, looks like it’s “unavailable” for me to test. My partner managed to download it though as a “test user”. Does anyone know how it’s possible to qualify for it to get early access?
wefwef.app
Works really smooth.
I’m using liftoff until sync is released
+1 it’s been a great experience so far
wefwef.app until Sync for Lemmy is out
Yeah, same. Tried wefwef and it’s smoother than I expected. Gonna keep using it until Sync out.
Liftoff all the way! At the moment is miles away. Hopefully more will step up in near future.
I was using Jerboa but it seems a little unstable, had it crash on me a number of times.
Currently I’m using wefwef as a Chrome app thing.
Liftoff, it’s functional and looks good. Waiting to try Sync for Lemmy, though.
