Yeah, same here with Infinity

It was my app of choice and I got so use to it, whenever I go back to it every once and a while, I just remember everything I miss since switching to jerboa

Biggest one is definitely the smoothness, idk y but jerboa has a subtly noticable stutter every time I swipe around the feeds, whereas Infinity is completely smooth, running at 90hz flawlessly

And there's alot of other small QoL and rough-around-the-edges things, too

The minute that Infinity for Lemmy comes out, if at all, is the minute that I return to my home app

Honestly I'm liking Liftoff more than I liked Infinity. Maybe you could try that.

Honestly really wasn't a big fan of the look and functionality back when I first tried it, but it looks like it got updated recently with some more customization and theming options

Closer to Infinity but still I miss it

It also still has the weird scrolling stutter, but overall does seem more polished than jerboa

Thanks for the recommendation!

Connect is also quite clunky.

As you say it QoL stuff, like highlighting text is difficult, and not all markdown functions are supposed.
