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.

I couldnt figure out how to post pictures with that app and there were a few bugs, but then again, it's Lemmy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

All features are not yet ready, image uploads, or even adding links to posts, is one of those.

There was a new uldate today, which added a lot. Full support for posting should be coming in the next one, there is already a PR for that.

I never have bugs with lemmy only time something happens is if they are upgrading the server!

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Uploading pictures hasn't been implemented into Thunder yet.

Thank you so much. As a Relay fan, I've been looking for something to fill that space. And lift off wasn't quite doing it for me.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out

That feature is on Jerboa now!

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Just started using it today and works well. Previously was using Relay for Reddit and like that feature. Might try liftoff sometime but jeroba is getting the job done so far.

Kinda same path. Jerboa -> Liftoff >< wefwef ๐Ÿ˜

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

As a fellow former Relay user, I also like Liftoff better. It's closer to what I'm used to.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Funny, I'm the same in every way. Didn't really have too many complaints about Jerboa but really finding Liftoff to be slick.
