Hi. Hopefully someone can help me out. I have installed Combustible as an Android Lemmy client but when I try to connect to https://slrpnk.net I get an error: "unable to connect to specified Lemmy instance!" I'm willing to try a different app but would prefer FOSS.

First time I hear of "Combustible". No idea what is going wrong, but since our server works with any client I have tried otherwise, I would assume the error is on their side. Most likely they have not yet updated to the latest Lemmy API version.

We host a nice mobile client here by the way: https://voyager.slrpnk.net/

You can install it as a PWA, so that it acts very similar to a normal app. Just open it in a mobile browser and select "install" or "add to homescreen" or so from the menu.

Exactly! Works very well.

I've been using Thunder. It's honestly been pretty good.

I also keep Voyager as a backup in case Thunder ever disappears. It also comes as a PWA if that's your thing.

I like Thunder too, especially since it's cross platform on Android and iOS / iPadOS. I get the same user experience on my phone and my iPad.

Try Eternity. It's FOSS, repository is on Codeberg.

I'm replying from the Eternity client. Brilliant!
