Hi All, What app are you using to browse Lemmy from mobile and why? It’s my first day
Jerboa (on android)
Jeboa. It’s not the prettiest but it works and I like it. I tried wefwef but it was not easy to block communities so I moved back to jeboa.
100%, there are quite a few nice apps out there and it’ll only keep growing but I keep coming back to jerboa for it’s functionally, I’m just waiting for “sync for lemmy” (former Reddit client)
But that’s not to say the other apps are bad at all
Vyger.app is beautiful Connect for lemmy (Android) has a great keyword filter Liftoff (android) is very popular but I can’t login with my instance with it for some reason Thunder for lemmy (android) is very nice and has a good balance of form and function and it’s also open source and probably reminds me the most of a solid Reddit client
The main reason I keep coming back to jerboa is because it’s very easy to post to any community from the main screen / feed whereas most other apps require you to navigate to the community you want to post to first (a small, but significant difference) and it’s also just very reliable and easy to see what’s going on at a glance
I’ve got liftoff, jerboa and connect installed. I keep reaching for connect first as its beautifully laid out, puts content first and has just enough framing to separate threads or comments, is improving fast and most of my early pain points are sorted now
I found the web UI on mobile a bit clumsy for my big thumbs.
There’s a couple early beta apps for iOS:
Thanks for the links!
I didn’t know about memmy. This is great.
