What's the best app to use with Lemmy? I've downloaded Thunder, but just wondering if it's a good app or are there better ones out there? Edit: Thank you all for your advice! I will try out the various recommendations and see what works best for me.

I like Voyager. It's very close to RES.

Some instances collect data btw. This place is a data mine, but so is every other place and most instances aren't ran by corporations. There are ways to tell exactly what you personally upvote and downvote. Anyone can have access to that info though, it's not sold.

For some reason I don't see images uploaded to feddit.org instance or by users from that instance.

Idk if it's something to do with the app or my account.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

From the app? There is an instance, but there is also an app. The app lets you sign into any instance you're a part of. I'm guessing, not positive, that the instance isn't federated to feddit.org. Do a search while on the instance and it will come up if it's not blocked.

Yes.

Edit: Happens on Firefox too wtf

[–] Stovetop@lemmy.world 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Firewall issue perhaps?

I have some links fail to load while I'm at work unless I use a VPN. Should do all browsing at work from VPN, to be honest.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

Happens on different networks so not a firewall issue. I'm wondering if there's some other blocking involved? Cause it only happens if it is feddit.org users/instances.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

That is very weird, I would send a bug report to the developer. I haven't had any issues.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

This is happening on (both stock profile and profile with extensions) Firefox and (stock) Chrome too. And only with feddit.org instances/users.

[–] acidbattery@lemm.ee 3 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Thanks for the info! Which instances do you recommend that don’t collect data?

[–] Grumpyleb@lemmus.org 3 points 22 hours ago

I clicked on the app link on the main page, and it gives a list of apps, some which collext.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 2 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

I'm not that savvy on the data collection and who does or doesn't collect. I've had an instance admin tell me that they check all of the data on people.
