I am not a regular app user (I prefer my stuff on browsers) and I'm finding it excellent.
easy to use, fast, simple and functional and I absolutely love features such as "make texts selectable". it's infuriating when apps don't allow that.
imo it doesn't need to get much more complex than that... nowadays most mobile devs simply don't care about performance and target only high end devices
It still need features. 85 issues about enhancements on GitHub approve it. But it does not mean it will be complex. If everything will be done right performance would be nice.
hoping so. I guess just the fact that they are not running millions of trackers on you already makes a good performance/battery usage boost

I had some issues, but after I remembered to update everything is great.
I like it, except... I can't upvote or comment on anything. I'm signed in, as my comments/posts show up in my profile, but it tells me I'm not logged in when I try to comment. Any tips?
A quick bug is that Liftoff also only seems to show a selection of comments on my recent post. It says there are 8 comments, but Liftoff only shows 5 of them. Then I tried again and it showed 4 comments.

So far I replaced eternity with it. Eternity kept crashing and the swipe sensitivity was horrible. I'm liking liftoff. Crossing fingers.
photon client in browser is way better in my opinion. maybe you should try it. official instance is phtn.app
Only thing I think I can find missing is to set a default download folder. Outside of that, it's now my daily driver.

I couldn't enjoy Liftoff since it doesn't appear to have gesture support. Connect and WefWef are what I use until Sync for Lemmy is released.
Also, LiftOffs gigantic button at the top is an eyesore. I don't find the UI as well done.

It's my favorite, so far. A few things could be better. Like when you have large cards set, you still have to click to see the whole image of posts. Most of the time it's only cutting off the top and bottom so it's annoying when it should just show the whole image. Some other small things like that. But otherwise the best I've tried so far!
Edit: I think I'd like an option to enable the karma calculation to be visible or not, now that words spreading it's actually there.
