First comment ever on lemmy! With reddit and the latest update moving shtiff around, it's gotten to a point where I no longer want to be apart of that app. Not mentioning the money grubbing infants over there... So I'm trying this one out! Thanks for staying open and active! 👍

Thank you!

I'm currently using "Connect for Lemmy". Is this what most here might recommend for Android?

Sync and boost!!!!

Best OG's with good ux/ui from reddit.

I personally used Connect for a long time (currently trialing Sync) and honestly it's a fine client for Lemmy. The really nice thing is that there are so many apps, you can start a Hunger Games out of them and narrow down to the one you like the most. That's how I got to Connect after starting with all of the maintained Android apps a month ago.

Use the app that works for you. That's why many of us are here, because Reddit took away that option to push their shit tier official app that's far inferior to literally every third party app I ever tried.

I really love it! Works better than jerboa on my side.

But waiting for "boost for lemmy" and I'll see then

It really depends on your taste, you can download and try the suggestions and see which you like the most.

That being said my favourite is Voyager (wefwef.app), I have a Linux phone and need something that runs in the browser and it works great. It resembles Apollo so will also be good for iOS users who miss it

I am quite happy on Voyager

I landed on Connect before now trialling Sync (which I'm liking the best so far). I went through and tested them all before sticking to one, and that's honestly just the best approach (if you have the time). They all have upsides and downsides, but ultimately it comes down to personal preference, particularly since aesthetic taste is so varied and subjective.

For example, some people love the iOS look of Voyager, some vehemently hate it.

While the whole app developing situation gets going - I'm on the iPad - I'm okay using a web browser, either Firefox or Brave, with this link:

My top 2 are Voyager and Connect.
