Memes about the Fediverse
Other relevant communities:
From my experience Photon is the best web client, Eternity is the best Android client and Voyager or Mlem seems to be the best iOS clients. In the free and open source side.
I don't wanna use proprietary client for the fediverse if great FOSS alternative exists.
But here are some proprietary client that looks great in my opinion Connect for Android and Arctic for iOS.
Don't forget connect. It's still getting updated.
That's probably why it was not chosen for this meme
Was about to say, Connect is the earth
yall sleeping on racoon
Is it still alive ? Like maintained, I thought it has been pulled out of the PlayStore and F-Droid
the last release was 9 hours ago
I was still on the old repo https://github.com/diegoberaldin/RaccoonForLemmy
The F-Droid link also changed thanks for letting me know !
I am using sync
Same. The only thing I'd add is a filter word.
Me too but it's semi-broken right now and hasn't had an update in a long time. I really don't want to switch, though.
Semi-broken? It seems to be working fine for me. Am I missing something?
There's a major incompatibility with newer versions of the Lemmy software where Sync shows a comment count but cannot display the comments. So at the moment I can't see any comments from posts hosted on sh.itjust.works. I know that there's other less severe issues too (I think spoilers are semi-broken in some instances).
I don't want to switch either. Pretty sure the Reddit shit just ruined all the motivation for the developer. He probably lost a huge source of income too
I finally uninstalled it the other day. It's clear the dev has abandoned it.
Maybe he died?
Same here, but it does feel like the app has been abandoned by the developer
I wish I could say I was surprised. The sync dev fucked me in a premium reddit license years ago when they invalidated the existing licenses and made people pay again for the premium to keep having it on reddit.
Glad I went with voyager over them.
I actually found out about this a few days ago. I suddenly kept getting errors and found out the app i used, Boost, hadn't been updated in almost a year... Now running Voyager. How did i not notice? No idea.
Still using Sync here, what exactly am I missing out on? Tried voyager years ago but coming from Reddit and using Sync for that, it was a pretty natural jump.
Just started using Thunder and it is a pretty easy transition from Sync.
I'll have you know that I switched to thunder because of your comment. Perhaps I had customized Sync a lot but it's taking a bit getting used to the interface.
It hasn't been updated in quite awhile, and I have heard some Lemmy features are still broken - I think some types of inline images and markdown mainly, and some upcoming api changes may break it completely in the nearish future.
Here is a comment I made in a relevant thread, where they discuss sync (here: https://lemmy.world/comment/14130358)
As someone who used sync on reddit for many years, I switched to Summit a few weeks ago and it's great. This post comparing a lot of lemmy apps made me finally take the plunge: https://lemmy.world/post/18159531
TLDR: A lot of formatting is messed up on sync.
Boost was my favourite client to use back on the reddit days. I migrated to lemmy before boost was announced for lemmy, but man it's a big help having it.
I have no idea what any of this means.
Mobile apps that have "died" - Voyager still lives on, stronger.
By died, it means no longer being maintained.
Jerboa is still here baby lfg
(No surprise though sense it is maintined by lemmy devs iirc)
There are literally three of us!
(or so it seems from these threads)
Guess I'm the 3rd. Jerboa has been flawless for me, I feel like.
Idk, maybe Voyager is good to, looks fine. I might check it out if I run into a reason to try it.
All day and night 👏
I'm using Memmy right now and honestly had no clue that it's dead!
Still hanging out here via Jeroba.
Jerboa for the win! Good, solid, and FOSS.
Thunder is my preferred client, with jerboa being second
Honestly thunder is perfect aside from being a tad slow to load sometimes. And it seems to have a little more tendency to experience network issues, but the UI is everything I could ask for
Jerboa might be my favorite if it showed full size link previews since I usually engage visually before I engage with text
Thunder still exists.
The best app by far.
This is a clever way to do a survey on user's preferred mobile clients
Memmy was how I first got into Lemmy. Feels bad that it doesn’t exist anymore.
