Liftoff for me, patiently waiting for Boost to be released since it was my main client for Reddit.

I bounce between wefwef and Liftoff. When one has a hiccup, I just swap to the other.
Jerboa's been working pretty good lately.
Thank you everybody! I ended up getting Jerboa, since it's available on F-Droid. It seems to work pretty well. I'll be trying all your other suggestions out as well.
Enjoying liftoff so far, only issue is you can't get back to your comments from your profile
Like if you look at your comments on your profile and wish to see them in context of the post they were made on, tapping on the comment will just collapse the 'thread' in your profile page lol. Kinda weird but using the menu to open it in browser gets around it for now. Aside from that, super smooth UI and performance aside from the occasional 502/3 hiccup.

Summit for Lemmy. Really solid app.
Same, Summit is great so far.
Since the 0.18 upgrade, just the web page in Firefox for Android. Works better than the apps I've tried. They all still need development time.
Thats what I'm using until the Lemmy UI lib and the apps mature
Liftoff but it doesn't let you see what comment or post someone replied to in your inbox. I'd say Jerboa is better for posting and stuff and Liftoff is better for browsing.
I'm on the latest version...
I think we are still in the phase where there is so much movement this answer might become outdated rather quickly.
For what it's worth I have installed: connect, liftoff, thunder, jebora and werwef (web app). But there are more I haven't tried yet
Currently writing from connect, which is my favorite.
As reference for Reddit clients I used to used relay (on my phone) and slide (on my tablet)
As a fellow Relay user you may be interested in the client I'm working on. I wanted the Relay client for Lemmy but nothing out there mirrors its layout, so I decided to build it myself.
Here's the Github repo and a short recording of the UI which is already out of date.
Thanks i'll check it out for sure. Even if the UI recording is already out of date it already shows a feature i really liked about relay on mobile:
The feature that you swipe right->left to reveal the options (up/down vote, save, share and so on) is something i really liked about relay. And at least until now i haven't really adjusted/grown to like the way most other apps including connect seem to handle it. Which is having a quick action based on how far you drag the post towards the left.
