What app is everyone using for Lemmy

wefwef and Liftoff until Sync arrives.

Wefwef right now. I have been pretty pleased with it. Not sure who the the developer it but damn they’ve been rolling out updates daily. Sometimes multiple times a day. I don’t think the person is sleeping at this point.

Jerboa

Using wefwef.app (it’s a web app) and it’s great. Sometimes I need remind myself that I’m not using Apollo.

Connect has been awesome for Android - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kuroneko.lemmy_connect

I am currently using Jerboa.

WefWef app on Android. It's been pretty great and seeing it get updates every day with new improvements is nice.

I switched back to Android right before Apollo came out so I never had experience with that. This is supposedly just like it with fewer features. Even so, I can see why people loved Apollo so much if it resembled WefWef even slightly.

I have a lot but I use none. I mainly use the web version, also on mobile.

Liftoff

https://wefwef.app on iOS.

It's nearly EXACTLY like Apollo. Installed on my Home Screen and put where the Apollo icon was. (Apollo moved to a special folder to commemorate its memory.) You guys, I've got to be honest, I didn't think Lemmy was going to work out for me, but with wefwef, I don't feel like I'm missing a beat. Looking forward to Lemmy and the fediverse continuing to grow!

Wefwef. It's incredibly polished and fast, especially for a webapp. It runs circles around new reddit performance wise, even with the servers being a raspi trampled by a horde of reddit refugees

Jerboa has been wonderful lately.

wefwef.app

Memmy, Mlem, wefwef are all inspired by Apollo. All are good. Liftoff! is another one I am testing, not crazy about the design but it’s still decent.

I'm using Liftoff right now. It's got great features, and it's very stable.

I have Memmy, Liftoff, Mlem and wefwef. Like the interfaces of Mlem and wefwef the best so far. One app doesn’t have it all yet and if there’s a hang up with one I can try another!

Liftoff.

I think it's okay to keep discussing this because the app situation is very much in flux at the moment. I'm on Jerboa because it's the best native app I've found that plays nice with a folding phone and Samsung DeX. My requirements are simple, but they are niche. I'm keeping an eye on a few other apps though because while Jerboa is great as it is there are improvements to be found.

Connect for lemmy has a pretty nice clean look that can be customized to look a lot like RIF. Been enjoying it so far.

wefwef.app

Wefwef as it it similar to apollo

Wefwef but I'll be using sync once it's available

I've tried: Connect, Jerboa, Liftoff, Thunder, Summit, and Wefwef.

For now, I've settled on Liftoff, though I do keep Jerboa installed as well.

Edit: ah, you're on iOS. In which case, I got nuttin.

Here are the apps I've used for Lemmy on Android!

• Liftoff - my current app of choice. It's very fast, supports the gestures I need, and while it lacks a bit in appearance customization, it makes up for it in speed and features.
• Connect - I originally wrote it off due to the inability to disable swipe gestures, though I tried to switch back to it after that feature was added. It's now a very pleasant experience, with a lot of customization! The only downside is that it is still slower than Liftoff at the moment.
• Jerboa - decent, but buggy.
• Lemmotif - no features, no logins, no customization, no posting, no nothing; just pure, blazingly fast, Lemmy doomscrolling.

Liftoff. Simple yet elegant. I wish there was an app closer to baconreader. I used BR for 12 years, so I grew very accustomed to it.

Memmy! It does what I need it to do

Jerboa for now just waiting for boost to release on lemmy and then i will move.

Liftoff and Thunder are my two favorites until Boost for Lemmy comes out.

Liftoff is my favourite so far, but every time I use it I get the theme song from the old Australian kids show of the same name stuck in my head and it drives me insane.

I used Boost for a couple of years and will almost certainly be switching back to it as soon as it's available, it's set to download immediately from the play store when it releases.

I've tried mlem and memmy.

I like memmy better.

Jerboa for me, too. Mostly because it was the first thing that came up on the app store for me, and there isn't a Lemmy is Fun (...yet?). So I tried Jerboa and it's perfectly capable.

There isn't much choice - F-Droid only contains Jerboa (not counting abandoned and broken Lemmur).

I am using Liftoff right now. And it works for me

Using browser for now. Waiting Sync for lemmy

Trying out Connect after using Liftoff for a while. The experience is well so far!

Just: Firefox.

Wefwef while waiting for sync and boost; might actually keep using wefwef though if it keeps improving at this rate. Let's see.

Memmy, and occasionally WefWef if I need to check on any odd behavior in Memmy.

If both are acting odd I web version it to confirm, then file a report.

I mostly navigate it from my laptop, but in the cases where I use my phone, Jerboa is still my go-to

Buggy at times, but I like the UI. Definitely open to new apps though. Connect didn't feel like my type, but I might try out

Boost once it's done, since a friend of mine recommended it for Reddit.

Using the website as PWA right now, the layout works well for me and there's no bugs to speak of

Connect gang here

I really like liftoff and alexandrite.

Thunder on Android

Liftoff. I also tried Jerboa and Connect, but Liftoff just has the best look and feel. Having said that, as an old Boost for Reddit user I'll be switching to Boost for Lemmy as soon as it releases.

Happy testing both liftoff and connect

I am trying memmy and wefwef; so far I prefer wefwef as I find the memmy light theme to be too light - fonts are too washed out. Don’t like dark themes at all. I wish wefwef would show the current date and time though.

I have lurked on Reddit for many years, using Apollo, but never had an account. It seems that memmy does not let you browse communities without creating an account, so here I am. What I have seen so far of lemmy, it appears a lot friendlier than Reddit. This may induce me to actually contribute in future.

Memmy. It even had a full release on the App store a couple of hours ago, so no need for testflight anymore. There are updates almost daily and it gets better and better.

Chrome. Waiting for Boost for lemmy to be released.

I’m using Mlem and I like it so far

Jerboa was recommended first and it's available on fdroid, haven't had the need to switch from it yet.

jerboa

Currently liftoff, though I still have jerboa installed for some things.

Using Jerboa right now. It's mostly good. I'm just unsure if the search function is returning all communities.. but maybe that's not possible? Still learning the details of the fediverse lol

I keep jumping between wefwef and liftoff.

With time they are all going to improve and have the things we all want, then I guess it will just be down to taste

Memmy (iOS) reminds me of Apollo, feel right at home. I don't even miss Reddit at this point.

Connect

Any love for Thunder here?

Same. I like it (and miss Apollo). But I also like the web interface too.

The web app for now. works well for me.

Using Thunder here. It has been okay so far. Probably gonna give Jerboa a try soon. I prefer to get my apps from F-Droid so I haven't given other apps much of a look yet.

Used Connect but switched to mobile browser. Lemmy behave way less buggy and way more stable, while UI and functionality are just fine. Will try Sync when it comes to beta though.

I really like Jerboa, has everything I need and Jeboas are so cute!

I'd like to know what I am doing wrong when trying to log-in. I can't be the only person having issues.

I have this account (Hazdaz) and I've tried logging into wefwef, Connect and Jerboa. On ALL three apps on my Samsung S21FE I get an error message that my credentials/password isn't correct. I've used my PC and reset the password. Changed at least 2 times now and tried again logging into these 3 Android apps and the error is the same. What can I possibly be doing wrong? The only way I can access Lemmy is on a computer. I've asked about this a few days ago and some helpful people replied but nothing they suggested worked.

How can this be so difficult?

Just waiting patiently for boost.

Memmy

I mostly use Connect and sometimes wefwef too. I tried Jerboa but it's very laggy on my phone. And I'm waiting for Sync.

I use connect for lemmy on android

Firefox. My initial experience with Jerboa wasn't great but it is improving.

Liftoff is great so far. Used Jebora, but it was having some connectivity issues and the comment structure was a little hard to differentiate. Liftoff is really nice and notifies you when you lose connection to the server. Never had an iPhone so didn't use apollo unfortunately because I heard great things. I did hear that the Boost team are releasing a new app soon which boost was IMO the best one I ever used

Mostly Jerboa, but also Thunder and LiftOff. All of them function nicely.

All of them rig now.

So far really liking wefwef, but connect and liftoff are really good as well.

The app ecosystem will be changing a lot in the next couple months so I will keep testing whatever keeps coming out.

Jerboa for the most part. Allows me a couple of accounts and lets me keep them separate.

Liftoff is pretty decent too, except the both accounts sort of merge and show up in a single feed.

Really cannot wait for Boost. Seriously, so psyched!

@DuskLoaf Just started using Ice Cubes for Mastodon (for this reply) but also using WefWef and Mlem.

Memmy for iOS

I'm liking the initial beta version of Artemis quite a bit.

Jerboa for browsing everything. And then Slide while at work because I disabled NSFW in Slide.

Liftoff! Why? Because I love swiping back from the middle of the screen instead of the sides.

This has been asked dozens of times in the past days and weeks. I wish people would use the search function.

Long term I hope we move a part of this to the wiki. https://joinfediverse.wiki/What_is_Lemmy%3F

To still provide something helpful for the current thread: https://lemmyapps.netlify.app/

I've been using a bunch. I've tried liftoff, Jerboa, the official PWA and wefwef. So far, I'm liking the vibes I'm getting from liftoff.

As a kbin user do these apps work for that or not? I chose kbin because i prefer the web UX.

I'm using Thunder. It's working well except maybe for the facts that upvoting takes forever and I keep getting 502 errors all the time, but I'm unsure whether that's Thunder's fault or it's just because my is instance is lemmy.world lol

jerboa

I'm with Liftfoff, until Beyond reaches its usable stage (RIP Infinity).

jerboa, liftoff & wefwef, although I see liftoff more.

Between Jerboa and Connect atm. Prefer the look of Jerboa but it definitely is buggier. All of a sudden it wouldn't let me subscribe to communities so spending more time on Connect. Have signed up for boost though do will check that once it's released.

Memmy ftw. But also, developing my own app for macOS right now :)

Was using wefwef but could not get over the PWA feel, now using Mlem and loving it!

Kbin + kbin enhancement script + ublock through a Kiwi Browser "app" install. I tried all the Lemmy specific apps, including wefwef, and couldn't stand any of them. Some were completely borked because beehaw was still on .17, others were incredibly buggy or they had very weird layout & design choices that made the usability experience just too weird.

I'm loving Liftoff, but I am waiting for Boost to be available cuz the previews posted of it look more like RIF, and I always preferred RIF.

MEMMYYYYY

WebApps which is a sandboxed browser for progressive web apps

I am using Liftoff and Jerboa with lemmy.ml - I prefer Liftoff. Lemmy.ml is pretty slow recently.
I also have a kbin account with subscriptions to the same communities, and on mobile I am using the web app: Howto install a web app.

Mlem. Early but good :D

I use Mlem on iOS, is there any alternative that you'd recommend?

Memmy, easily the best app available right now.

Jerboa and connect.

I like both and switch back and forth.

I'm on iOS and I'm using Mlem. It seems to be changing and shifting rapidly. Already changed noticeably 3 or so times within three to five weeks. Imagine if Reddit app fixed three to five of the bugs that most annoyed me that quickly...

Thunder

Jerboa for browsing everything. And then Slide while at work because I disabled NSFW in Slide.

I'm on iOS. I've tried Liftoff!, Mlem and Thunder. So far I like Mlem the most.

I have never used Boost for Reddit, but I'm still excited to see what Boost for Lemmy will be like.
