Honestly IMO it's a bit cringe for me that so many people are like, "fuck these Lemmy apps this [insert unreleased app] is amazing!".
Like calm down, lol. Let's see how it'll be first, a lot of the Lemmy apps are great right now.
Signed, a Reddit Boost user.
While I have no allegiance to any particular app I am somewhat hyped for any and all established former Reddit apps to make the transition. Each release should hopefully bring a small bump of users with it. Also, the diversity of how a user can interact with fediverse is satisfying. Initially I was hoping for something along the lines of lemmyisfun or kbinisfun. Presently I'm enjoying connect for lemmy and anticipating whatever comes next.
I keep forgetting I have connect installed, I was using the Firefox pwa for a while and finally installed connect and jerboa to test them out
Another Boost faithful here, really enjoying Liftoff. No rush needed.
Liftoff is at a stage i don't need Sync to hurry anymore.
The apps were just lightyears behind anything we used for Reddit, it is getting there and i'm happy.
To me Liftoff looks a lot more cluttered than Jerboa.
Loved Boost for Reddit.
I've tried all the available Lemmy apps for Android and none of them are at good at Boost was. Anyway, the more the merrier
I can say the same for Infinity. That's what I'm really going to miss.
Hopefully Boost is as good as it was, now with community small avatars.
I'm loving Connect, it's everything I need.
I started with Jerboa TBH (who hasn't?), but Connect is much more refined IMO and I love the gestures.
