As someone who has 6 lemmy apps installed, and constantly cycling between them, I'd say for now connect and liftoff are the best although each has issues that the other migitates. I'd say you won't go wrong with either option, with it mostly being personal preference.
As a former user of infinity for reddit connect feels a bit closer layout to what I was used to, but liftoff seems to have a slightly better ui.
Thunder and Jerboa are the best so far. Both have had updates in the past few days that have polished things.
Connect for lemmy has gotten better now that i can hide posts without interacting with them.
I don't mind jerboa tbh but I'm kind of waiting to see if sync for reddit becomes a thing.
Jerboa is working waaaaaay better than the previous versions. It is at last quite stable as of v39.
I've been using Jerboa and Liftoff, as the combination of both has what I'm looking for (Liftoff has an option to see feeds from other instances without having to log in), but most of the time I use Jerboa
Jerboa since yesterday had been super smooth and error free for me. I prefer it to connect but they look similar
As a former RIF user, I am thoroughly enjoying liftoff.
Seconding this
Jerboa is my favourite, has been really smooth for me + the material you design makes it look so good!
I have tried a lot, the three min ones I keep coming back to are jerboa, connect and liftoff. They all have pros and cons and I like each and alternate between them. Liftoff is a continuation of lemur by the way. Lemur was abandoned but someone else picked it up and develop it further, providing frequent updates.
I've been using a few, but so far I've found Connect to be the smoothest and more to my liking. I was a long time Sync user, so I'll be picking that up once it eventually launches.
I tried several and found wefwef to be there best
I'm using jerboa right now. Got it from fdroid and it works really well!
Mainly Liftoff and Connect for Lemmy.
Liftoff and Connect mostly. Connect is a bit more mature but keep an eye liftoff
Liftoff! Is superb. I don't have any complaints about it. My only gripe is finding the same content repeatedly. I just need to subscribe to more communities probably
I think we are still in the phase where there is so much movement this answer might become outdated rather quickly.
For what it's worth I have installed: connect, liftoff, thunder, jebora and werwef (web app). But there are more I haven't tried yet
Currently writing from connect, which is my favorite.
As reference for Reddit clients I used to used relay (on my phone) and slide (on my tablet)
Liftoff but it doesn't let you see what comment or post someone replied to in your inbox. I'd say Jerboa is better for posting and stuff and Liftoff is better for browsing.
Since the 0.18 upgrade, just the web page in Firefox for Android. Works better than the apps I've tried. They all still need development time.
I am creating my own just for fun. let me know if you want to try it out. come join the discord for preview: https://discord.gg/4QxXNwJ7
Wefwef app was struggling last week. Today, it's been very solid. Sticking with it moving forward
For me personally, and the app experience I'm accustomed to, Connect and wefwef are the current jam.
