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

On mobile, I'm using the Voyager app, which lemmy.world has installed as an alternative front end. Seems to work great.

On desktop, I'm using the amazing Alexandrite UI (https://alexandrite.app/) which solves all of my interface annoyances with the regular Lemmy UI (infinite scroll, opening posts without losing place in the feed, easily accessible communities list).

I love how flexible Lemmy is proving with its UI options... there really does seem to be something for everyone!

Wow, Alexandrite is awesome. If it rolls in an account switcher, it seems like it'll be just about perfect for me.

(dev here) I had an idea for how I'd build a profile switcher recently, it's something I want to implement soon.

I'd also kill for default comment sorting, if you're taking requests.

Awesome! Great work so far.
