How are you accessing Lemmy now? Browser or app? (self.syncforlemmy)

Hi fellow sync-ers,

Having joined Lemmy recently, I have been having a ton of fun. However accessing Lemmy through my mobile browser has been an awful experience, similar to my past Reddit experience till I found Sync.

I'm not sure how much longer I can tolerate the browser experience, and am hesitating jumping on a app. Where's your head at about this?

Edit (4 days later)

I've been on Connect and has been 8/10 so far. Gonna dual use with liftoff after seeing the comments.

I did a 5 minute ctr+F to see which were the most popular apps/ interfaces. Not sorted by pos/neg, just mentions.

wefwef/ voyager - 46
connect - 43
Liftoff - 33
Jerboa - 23
Thunder - 16
Firefox - 13
Thunder - 16
Old.lemmy - 5
Alexandrite - 4
Vivaldi - 2

For now I am using connect for lemmy. Which is great! And grown in Canada.

I second this. Been using Connect for about two weeks, and I think it's really solid. I would give it an 8.5/10 in its current state.

I'm gonna give Connect a go! Thanks for the recc

And I'm guessing you're here at Sync due to past loyalties, and may jump ship when Sync is up and/on Connect experience goes down?

Surprisingly no actually. I used RIF on Android and Apollo on iOS. I just joined the sub because I wanted to see what apps people were using too when I migrated like you, and I had seen a lot of people recommend Connect across multiple threads so seemed like a strong contender.

I may try some others in the future, but I see no reason to do that at the moment because I've been having a pleasant experience so far. Let me know what you think if you give it a try!

Reminds me of my Reddit journey before, gone through too many apps including RIF, baconreader before settling on Sync which I really loved.

T'was a fun time lurking around other apps /r and experimenting. and I kinda like it, like now fedi/Lemmy/Kbin etc.

No hate, just doing stuff and see what happens

Using Connect as well. It's working great so far.
