How do you like connect? I've been using Jerboa but wouldn't mind checking some others apps out

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

personally it is kinda superior to Jerboa, since it has a feature that is my favourite: keyword filter, but also i can browse instances that can be defederated from each other, all the fediverse in one app: could even browse hexbear.net (which is not federated with anyone yet), kbin.social, ..all on the app (and can browse instances as a guest without an account, which makes things way eaiser. unlimited block list. no bugs. it was suggested to me and i keep suggesting it for others since i didnt regret using it.

I've tried a bunch, including Jerboa and Connect. Thunder is by far my favourite

maybe make a pros and cons chart and post it

yea each person has some certain favourite features that aren't common on all apps.

I went from Jerboa, then Connect for a while, then Liftoff, and now I sometimes use Thunder.

Liftoff is currently my most used app though.

In case you aren't using the Thunder nightly releases, big Thunder major release soon :)

I like the jerboa design but the scrolling is so awful that triggers me.
