The biggest annoyance for me is hitting the back button in my browser as it doesn't remember how far down I scrolled on the page.
There are lots of other little convenience things but that's what prompted me to download an app.

No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

That's what started me too. Then it snowballed as i tried every other app available to install. And now i cannot go back.
What app did you end up liking?
Sorry for the late reply. I was jumping from instance to instance.
Thi is now my app ranking
- Connect for Lemmy
- Jerboa
- Liftoff for Lemmy
- Firefox browser (mobile eeb display for lemmy is underrated)
- Wefwef (it has no block instance and user option, yet)
I got on wefwef today and I’m in love with it. (I came to lemmy after Apollo was shut down. Now I feel right at home with wefwef!)
Apps are generally more optimised for phones, and thus work a little bit better (with the exception of www.wefwef.app). But if you like the website, you don't have to use apps.
wefwef might be a webapp but it's very mobile optimized (: feels almost native and it's just like Apollo
And it’s trustworthy with my username and password?? 🤔
every app needs your username and password to log in? and it's fully open source on github..
I took a leap and I’ve been using wefwef all day (and I love it)!
However, just because the source code is on GitHub doesn’t mean that the wefwef server I’m connecting to is running unaltered code straight from GitHub.
Hosting my only server may be the only way to be certain my credentials are protected.
I'm firmly a desktop user here, I'm old-fashioned, I don't like using my phone, I'd rather be doing just about anything else than reading and typing on a phone screen. But each to their own!
If someone wants to make a desktop app I'd be interested (there never was one for Reddit), but the browser experience is just fine - especially with version 0.18 it's starting to feel polished.
you clearly aren't suffering from the random screen fast scroll bug. Every time I try to browse on the desktop, it just starts scrolling like mad and I close the site.
That should have been fixed in last nights release.
There are bugs but they are getting fewer by the day, I don't think I've had the fast scroll thing for a few days now. But that's not relevant for me, I have no interest in using my phone so it's either live with the bugs of the web version or don't do it at all.
