This is a cop out answer. I tried Jerboa but wasn't a big fan. That may change in the future. But I feel currently the best way to experience Lemmy on your phone is to do the following:

  1. Install the firefox app from the app store
  2. Go to your Lemmy instance on firefox
  3. press the 3 dots (where you can view bookmarks, history, etc) and click on "Add to Home screen"

When you click on the Lemmy icon that's added to your home screen on your phone, it will open up the Lemmy web app (seperate from the firefox browser). It works super nice on mobile from my experience so far, and has a sleek design.

After trying jerboa I ended up going this route. I keep getting server errors using the pwa though not sure if lemmy.ml just can't handle the traffic or I'm doing something wrong
