I came from RiF and used Connect for a long time. It had issues with always bringing you back to the top of the page when you would leave the app. Eventually I’ve settled on Boost, and immediately paid for just on the basis that it reminded me so much of RiF (and it works!)

Voyager an Mlem on iOS.

Another vote for Connect.

njm1314,

Personally I like connect the best

spacemanspiffy,

Using and loving Voyager on a Librem 5 phone.

Buddahriffic,

I just switched from connect to Voyager yesterday. I’m liking it so far but noticing stability issues. Like it crashes out every few hours or so. Nice to have mod tools back though.

kabi,

I’m just here to lay some hate on the proprietary apps: they bad.

spacemanspiffy,

Who would dare downvote you on this?

sag,

Jerboa and Raccoon if you love FOSS

Sync If you don’t care about FOSS

AsherahTheEnd,

I’m new, what does FOSS stand for? I’m currently using Sync.

sag,

Been using voyager on iOS since nearly day 1. Seems fine. Might be better ones out there.

Archelon,

Been using voyager too, made the jump to Lemmy easier when Apollo shut down.

AgentGrimstone,

I started with Connect and kept it because it’s very much like Bacon Reader. Haven’t had the need to try others.

Sgn,

Boost for lemmy. No contest. Nice, clean unique and smooth UI, better discoverability and seems built by a person who cared than a person who stole from a 2013 android app wrapper and pasted the lemmy website

JackGreenEarth,

Voyager for a good app that has an iOS look. Jerboa uses Material design, if you prefer that, but to doesn’t work as well.

dream_weasel,

Idk if jerboa even has instance blocking in app yet. I switched to Voyager because it seemed always behind.

JackGreenEarth,

Jerboa’s instance blocking is actually one of the few ways it works better than Voyager, letting you block instances directly from the post dropdown rather than needing to go two menus deep into settings.

dream_weasel,

Shoot, I guess it was worth the wait even though I didn’t.

cyrus,

FWIW, Voyager has a Material-Design inspired alternative look that can be enabled in the settings.

JackGreenEarth,

Yeah, but it doesn’t look very good. Not compared to something like Jerboa or any other native Android app made with Material You.

cyrus,

I know enough people that hate Material Design 3, or even just the Monet component, so I’ll leave that for everyone to decide for themselves.

Eternity was great, but it’s likely abandoned now. I switched to voyager. And this is a nice clean app. No complaints from me.

Worth noting that I tried all the available apps from the lemmy app list. And I’ve worked them down to 3 liftoff, eternity and voyager. Two of these are abandoned now.

lost_faith,

Since you tried them all, what is your take on summit? I mostly use it when not at a pc, smoke breaks, travel between places.

Last tim I tried Summit, was months ago but to tell you the truth. It was one of my favorites! it’s definietly better than thunder and boost. One app that i can compare it with is Eternity and Connect. The reason why it did not reside in my top three is because of my preference, there is a feel to an app that i am looking for, I really cannot describe it, I did not feel it with summit, but Eternity had it. But technically speaking. Summit is one of the very good apps for Lemmy, you will not regret it if you choose to use it.

to be frank, Voyager is the least of my three. Eternity did have all i was looking for, unfortunately it seems that it has been abandoned.

lost_faith,

Thanks for this

Out of the ones I’ve tried (Jerboa, Connect, Thunder), I think Thunder is best (after a little config) : github.com/thunder-app/thunder/releases
