Been switching between Thunder, Liftoff and wefwef, so far I'm liking Liftoff the most, with wefwef coming in second. I used to use Boost for Reddit so now I'm waiting for Boost for Lemmy to drop so that I can finally switch from Reddit for good.

I'm waiting for both Sync and Boost to come out with their Lemmy offerings and will probably end up with one of those. In the meantime, I'm trying Thunder and WefWef, but have also heard good things about Liftoff. Here is a list of the current (and upcoming) crop if you want to experiment: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
On mobile I don't really mind just using the browser. Everything works quite well and I prefer it over most of the apps. Now trying wefwef and it seems like a bit of an upgrade.
I use lemmy as a PWA. You can install it directly from your browser.
The last few releases of Jerboa have been atrocious. It's currently crashing when backing out of activities, voting, or commenting. I tried Thunder but the UI is extremely confusing for me.
The first time I tried installing jerboa from f-droid I couldn't even open it. Then I installed jerboa from my browser and the problems haven't appeared again
Had the same problem, I was spam tapping on the app while opening it each time and after some tries it started working and I haven't encountered the problem again lol.
I had to leave Jerboa as well (at least until they fix the crashing on launch) and I'm liking Thunder (available on fdroid and github they have a iOS version for the interested) with connect as second favourite (available on the playstore, not sure about iOS)
Thunder has one annoyance, they don't really have a profile tab, so you can't see saved posts on the app. And connect's post writing sometime glitches on me.
The latest Jerboa update does seem to have fixed that fyi
Connect is what I've been using while jerboa is out of commission until lemmy world updates. Been a decent user experience so far. I still prefer jerboa.
I know this wasn't asked, but the reddit is fun dev is making a Tildes app if you have an account there
I like Connect. It has it's own bugs though.
That's the one I'm using as well right now though the newest update introduced significant lag when interacting with the sidebar, I'm unsure if that's cause of the number of subs I subbed to.

I'm using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.idunnololz.summit summit which is pretty nice except that I can't seem to find the settings, it does work well though.
