Jerboa on mobile until Sync is ready. Nothing at all on desktop!
Right now in firefox on a laptop. But I mainly use the Connect app. And will definately check out Sync when it releases.
I was using Jerboa because i was used to Sync for reddit. But, I got a bit tired of how rough around the edges it is, so I switched to just installing my Lemmy instance front page as Firefox "app" on my phone and realized it's not that bad as a UI, so sticking with it for now.
I'll probably try apps again in the future but I feel more open to "installing" good web apps now. Incidentally I tried the same trick with Reddit's mobile interface after Sync stopped working and realized it's also not so awful as I remembered. I did prefer Sync but I'll see how it goes with this method. So it's mobile web interfaces on Android for me for now.
Having said that, in both cases I think I'd prefer a more "simple HTML" type experience like old reddit over these dynamic SPA things they both have going.
Voyager or Memmy on mobile. Regular Lemmy on desktop.
Cycling between Voyager, Jerboa and Thunder. Still have to try Sync
Currently just visiting on Vivaldi (mobile), but STOKED for Boost For Lemmy
App - Thunder FTW
I really enjoy the double action swiping to up/down vote or to favorite/reply. Also, you can save your favorite default filter for the main feed.
Both, I guess, technically.
I have been using Voyager for lemmy.world. which is a progressive web app you can install to your phones homescreen. It is still is using the browsers engine for javascript, but it behaves as if it was a mobile app.
I am writing this on Connect. Mostly works, but about one in 5 comments fails due to "wrong language". I haven't yet found any option of even setting comment language, so I guess it's autodetecting and failing at that.
I also miss Sync's filtering capabilities.
I may be new to the fediverse, but Iβve found kbin more visually pleasing than native lemmy website. Thatβs on desktop, on mobile, since thereβs no native kbin app yet, Iβve added kbin as a WebApp to my Home Screen. Iβve heard good thing about Liftoff too.
I tried quite a few: Jerboa, wefwef, Thunder, Liftoff, browser (Brave)
Ultimately chose Connect which functions great and has some good customizations I appreciate
Patiently waiting for Sync
Firefox Focus on mobile
Firefox on desktop
Connect. Also enjoy Liftoff.
But connect doesn't allow interaction with kbin right? I'm looking for something that is as nice as connect but also allows kbin
The instance that Im on has both voyager built in, and a front end that makes it look like old reddit. So I use voyager on mobile and that old reddit look alike on PC.
Kbin PWA on Firefox on Android. Was using Chrome but it won't let me log in any more, invalid CSRF error.
Also using the Kbin PWA from Firefox. It got me to switch over from Edge because performance was terrible in any magazine that did something as simple as change the color of the title bar for some reason. Worked fine in Chrome oddly enough. But I'd sooner use Firefox over Chrome.
/kbin form the Artemis app beta π€©
I jump between voyager for lemmy and liftoff while waiting for sync for lemmy. They seem pretty good so far. Better that using a browser imo. I mostly use voyager because looking at and replying to messages is kinda annoying in liftoff compared to voyager.
Browser. I've tried Connect and Liftoff on android but I couldn't find a way to browse communities I hadn't subscribed to, probably because I'm dumb
Using the KBin pwa
95% app. 5% website
