The only reason why we all used third party apps for Reddit, is because their app and website is abhorrent trash. It's great to have a choice, but Lemmy's website is smooth to use. I know it's mind blowing not to use a app for everything in 2023 but Lemmy just works.

personally it's more convenient if there's a mobile app, so I'm using Liftoff right now, until Sync, Artemis or Boost release ๐Ÿ˜€

But why though? What does an app get you that you can't get by pinning the site to your home screen?

A really big one I'm surprised no one has mentioned is gestures. On a huge phone I do NOT want to have to click a small button to do something. The lemmy website does not support this. Wefwef, however, does!
