I have about 6 installed. Connect is good. Liking Infinity right now. Jerboa is really good, but I like to have comments sorted by top as a default which is doesn't do...yet.
Really, I'm waiting for Boost, but likely jump between a few for now.

Android: Eternity (A Lemmy client for Android, forked from the Infinity for Reddit project.) https://f-droid.org/packages/eu.toldi.infinityforlemmy/
Not out yet, but the (IMO) unquestionably best Reddit app, Boost, is currently being ported to Lemmy - follow here for updates: https://lemmy.world/c/boostforlemmy
Fuck, I thought I was a mainstream lemmy user and now I find out that using voyager apparently makes me an outsider. :(
Infinity
On iOS the one Iβve come to prefer is Memmy. Tried liftoff and was not a big fan. Kept defaulting to Memmy without thinking.
Will be checking out Wefwef/Voyager as I like to e idea of PWA vs a full app install.
Edit: installed wefwef/Voyager. This is going to be the daily driver from now on. Able to login to every instance (exception being Lemmy.world getting connection errors.) Colors are fantastically readable in dark mode. Still poking. Around but loving it.
I use Infinity for reddit and am now using infinity for lemmy, I like the familiarity and with a bit more work it will probably become the standard android lemmy app. Having said that I liked jerboa and still use it too.
I'm constantly trying out all the ones I can find but so far connect is the only one where I can customise the colours. I love me a sepia theme!
Luckily it's also great in other ways.
Could we get a new pinned comment for this. Some of this is our of date now and it would be nice to discuss.
Apps, interfaces, browser extensions, scripts
Are you trying to restart the lemmy app war? We finally just rid ourselves of the constant memes.
Iβm using the beta of Memmy for Lemmy (ios). It hasnβt been released yet, but itβs already stable, even though thereβs work to do for what concern the UI and some features. I appreciate it because being new to Lemmy, it makes things a but more approachable.
Typing this 11 days after the initial question was asked and things have changed a lot since.
I've tried two apps: voyager (used to be called wefwef) and memmy.
Voyager has one problem for me on iOS 15.7: When I tap and hold an image no menu shows up, and I have no way of directly sharing an image. I can only share the link, but I don't want to do that. So if i want to share memes directly with friends and family I can't do that. I've tried to explain the problem in github but it seems like it's not a high priority and difficult for them to reproduce. I wonder if this is rooted on voyager being a web app.
Memmy on the other hand has made great progress and for me is the winner because it allows to share the images directly like I used to in apollo. They've now fixed the swipe to close gesture being too harsh, and thus I have what I need.
Here's what happens on voyager when I tap and hold an image I want to share: https://files.catbox.moe/ypz37b.mp4
They're all good in their own ways, but I'm starting to wonder if lemmy is actually still alive, I see a lot of bot transfered posts from reddit which is cool but of course there's no real interaction with them
FYI Connect seems to be pretty unoptimised: https://lemmy.world/post/953025
RN I'm using Jerboa until Sync comes out
I've tried almost all of them and shockingly Jerboa seems the best despite being the first as far as I'm aware.
Sync comes in last for having ads unfortunately. Or basically just disqualified.
I'm happily using fennec browser (firefox fork) on android. The web ui is fine, don't know why everyone wants an app.
