Hi Lemmyfolks,
I'm currently using the Jerboa client for Lemmy. I'm curious to know what other 3rd party clients people are using?

I have tried pretty much all of the apps that I've seen being mentioned (Jerboa, Liftoff, Connect, Thunder, Summit, Lemming, etc.). Using wefwef.app which is a PWA inspired by Apollo. Going to stick with it until Sync for Lemmy comes out because I was on Sync for R****t before the whole fiasco. Registered for Boost for Lemmy as well. Wefwef is pretty nice and smooth for the time being though.

P.S.: My first comment on Lemmy using wefwef :)

I'm testing out all the ones I can find for android. I've got Jerboa, Connect, Thunder, Summit, and Lemmynade. At this point, all of them have some missing features/functionality here and there, but my favorite so far is Lemmynade.

Several of these are not on Play Store, only on F-Droid or directly from Github. I know Lemmynade is only on Github for now, and 1 or 2 of the others but I don't remember which.

I've briefly tried Jerboa and Lemmynade and I've stayed with the latter as it seems less buggy. What features you miss with Lemmynade?

[–] theboomr 1 points 2 years ago

I just had a very specific setup in Joey for Reddit that was exactly the way I wanted it to be, with a layout that mostly supported a left handed mode and a bottom navigation bar, and customizable compact modes and a really huge amount of customizable options in general for the UI and how things are displayed/laid out.

I've tried many client, but keep going back to boost. 😁

Wefwef.app is th only good one I have used

[–] tuts 2 points 1 year ago

Also Liftoff

[–] ThatBlokeJosh 2 points 1 year ago

Thunder is cool, but Jerboa is the best rn. Connect and Liftoff are also good.

[–] coffeemonster 2 points 1 year ago

Sync currently previously connect and before that thunder

[–] Opacity9850 2 points 1 year ago

I have tried liftoff, thunder and wefwef.. Sticking with wefwef because it's like very much like Apollo just missing features here and there which they might add soon!

[–] PixelatedSaturn 2 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Ive seen Jerboa and Connect for Lemmy. Are there any ones that are not on playstore?

[–] NEOpera 4 points 2 years ago

I'm using thunder which is available for both ios and android. https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder/releases

[–] Puzzlehead 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

interesting, didnt know about Connect, will check out!

[–] vanillabear 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Connect works but unfortunately the Images are cropped in the feed

[–] DickinsonSA 1 points 1 year ago

I can concur, connect seems very stable - been trying quite a few but still waiting for Boost.

[–] 65gmexl3 2 points 2 years ago

not yet, i'm using the browser with extension to look/feel old reddit style.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago
