Newbie here. Just installed Jerboa and two minutes later it shows "Network error". Installed Wefwef and it's ok. Taking notes to try the other ones.
Still learning about Lemmy and the communities to have an accurate opinion.
Kbin so currently just using hermit to make the web app until Artemis comes out
Still on my phone browser. So far not seeing any downside to it compared to PC browsing, so I think this will be fine.
I'm using Lemmy as an android pwa. Works well. I liked Jerboa but it was too buggy.
Personally, I use Jerboa on mobile. It's got its own problems and compatibility issues, but they're also not so significant that it makes me want to go use another app, and with lemmy.world still being on an older version that probably isn't compatible with most apps that work for 0.18 and above, the risk of breaking everything makes it not that worthwhile.
I was using Jerboa. But after a lot of bugs in last few versions I currently trying other apps.
Currently alternating between Connect and Wefwef
Jerboa won't even load for me. It just crashes and force quits.
I am using jerboa but really miss redreader, the creator floated making it support lemmy and I am excited for that possibility but am sticking with jerboa for now.
New user here. I use the Web app for now. Connect seems to make my phone freeze for whatever reason and I can't seem to login with jerboa because "my server version is too low"...
Jerboa is the most feature-complete, but it crashes pretty often and it adopts new Lemmy API versions a bit early, so all instances don't always have the time to get updated. Besides, the look is simple and functional, but I can't say it's pretty.
So far, I really like Thunder's looks, interface and UX. It's not very intuitive, but the swipe-based gesture system is really promising, and so far it's also the prettiestt. It still lacks many important features (editing posts and comments), but they're not essential enough to prevent me from using them, and I've been mostly browsing with that in the last few days.
Liftoff looks really good as well. As others said, it looks a lot like Infinity, which was my go-to Reddit app. However, I don't like the dark theme options we have so far: dark is too light, and AMOLED is a single black screen, which makes posts hard to distinguish at a glance. Once we get more theming options, I might switch to Liftoff.
Boost for Lemmy when it comes out. Been using Boost since 2017 and I hope to continue doing so!
Same here, loved Boost
Wefwef.app best app so far
Jerboa and Connect. The former has been a bit unstable recently so Connect has been my go-to most recently.
Connect for Lemmy
Pretty slick so far
Was using Jerboa and really liked it up until today, it just crashes now.
Downloaded Liftoff and it seems pretty good. I want something like RIF interface and both apps give me that.
Connect and Thunder seem to work best for me. I'm on .world so Jerboa isn't an option at the moment
What is the conflict with Jerboa and .world instance? I haven't had any problems on Jerboa.
