I’m posting from Memmy for Lemmy on iOS, but flip between it and Mlem as they out-update each other. Glorious days, these are.

[–] ndr 7 points 1 year ago

I’m using Memmy, Mlem, Liftoff, Thunder and wefwef lmao

You aren't wrong...

[–] sethal 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Memmy and WefWef mainly on iOS.

[–] sethal 3 points 1 year ago

I’ll add that Mlem is pretty awesome too.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Tried quite a few and enjoying WefWef the most right now, gets updates frequently too. It's a cross platform progressive web app and good ones are rare to see. https://wefwef.app/

Liftoff. I tried the rest but Liftoff seems the best.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Right now my main app is Liftoff, with Jerboa being a very close second.

[–] cityslicker343 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What is it about liftoff that you like Vs the other apps that are in TestFlight

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Tried most I could find on github and the playstore, and liftoff was the first that kinda ticked all the boxes. Only thing I'm missing is an option to view all account at once, with a filter for duplicated subscription posts.

Currently I use Jerboa first, but if that doesn't work I switch to Connect, then Wefwef then just a web browser. All to wait for Sync for Lemmy to release.

Lemmy Connect

Android user here, i use Jerboa πŸ™‹β€β™‚οΈ

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm using Jerboa right now. When I'm on my laptop I use Firefox.

[–] pushECX 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Currently using wefwef, but I’m waiting to try the others that are available for iOS once they get out of the TestFlight stage.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

FYI Memmy is on the App Store now. It’s a slightly outdated version but there should be an update for that any day now.

Desktop browser. Firefox more specifically.

[–] TheTechNerd 7 points 1 year ago

Memmy

Btw I love the name Memmy for LemmyπŸ˜‚

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I just use the mobile website. It works and doesn't harass me to use something else, which are both huge improvements from Reddit!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The Mlem app deserves more attention. Wefwef is very good but Mlem should be in the mix. I switch between both.

Mozilla Firefox

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Even though there are plenty of great and quickly evolving mobile apps, I use the web interface both on desktop and mobile devices. It's actually quite good, and since I'm a mod and instance admin, the feature completeness is key. Apps are not there yet.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Connect and wefwef. But also keeping an eye on the other apps when they get updated.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Already in love with https://wefwef.app . Feels really snappy on both Android and iOS, really great job from the developers. Also copying the Apollo UI/UX made me feel comfortable since minute 1.

[–] AlmightySnoo 4 points 1 year ago

wefwef and Firefox!

[–] entropicshart 4 points 1 year ago

Memmy for Lemmy on iOS and Mac is awesome

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I rotate between Jerboa, Connect, Liftoff, and Thunder. Lately, I've been using Jerboa the most though.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I've found myself defaulting to liftoff lately and not regretting it, but threads like these remind me to not get complacent! I found jerboa tough to get started with but decent after configuration was done. I like wefwef as well.

Fwiw I was a Boost user on Reddit

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

My eyes.. nah I use the regular lemmy website on my computer and wefwef/jeboa on mobile.

[–] PatientExpired 4 points 1 year ago

Been using Memmy on iOS & the official website for Mac

[–] codenamekino 3 points 1 year ago

I was using Firefox on android for a couple of weeks, with a link of my home screen to make it feel more like an app, but everything I left the app, Firefox would crash. I re-downloaded thr DuckDuckGo browser and tried the same thing with that, and had much more success.

I also downloaded and tried Jerboa, but it wouldn't remember my browsing preferences, always defaulting to Local communities, sorted by Active. Also, Day was the smallest increment under the Top sorting. None of that matched with my preferences.

[–] itscozydownhere 3 points 1 year ago

Memmy, love it

My eyes

Just kidding, i use Liftoff.

[–] linearchaos 3 points 1 year ago

I have installed and tried all of them. Right now, WefWef running under Brave is winning on Android.

It's fast, the gestures are great The media works, I can resize and download images easily get to read and clear my inbox and see my post history.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I use mostly the web app. Memmy, Mlem, Jerboa, Liftoff, etc. all look cool, but to be honest, I'm not sure I'll ever go back to having an app on my phone like I did with Reddit. I think I want my engagement with Lemmy to be more on a "when I feel like it" basis than a "when a push notification summons me" basis.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Thunder on Android. Waiting patiently for sync for lemmy.

[–] Bel_Shamharoth 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm just using mobile Chrome until Sync for Lemmy is released.

[–] dogebread 3 points 1 year ago

As a huge Sync fan, Liftoff is pretty good for while we wait. If you're looking.
