I like it, except... I can't upvote or comment on anything. I'm signed in, as my comments/posts show up in my profile, but it tells me I'm not logged in when I try to comment. Any tips?

A quick bug is that Liftoff also only seems to show a selection of comments on my recent post. It says there are 8 comments, but Liftoff only shows 5 of them. Then I tried again and it showed 4 comments.

I was using connect and preferred that, but it stopped working on me. I use liftoff now. Dont like it as much, but it allows you to navigate to other instances easier

It works. I wish the counter next to the notification bell would clear after I read the notifications. Instead I have to force close the app to force it to reload.

I'm sure time will make it better tho.

I started with Jerboa and moved to Liftoff due to bugginess. Then moved from Liftoff to Connect because it's easier to flip between accounts with fewer taps. I was on Boost for R and am hoping the new upcoming Lemmy app is as good.

Connect almost does it for me, but it doesn't let me set default to Front Page or Subscribed sorted by New. I don't want to have to tap multiple times to get to that view every time I open the app.

Good UX so far! Boost seems popular so will try that. But liftoff is great.

I have no issues with it and I think the user experience is awesome

Only thing I think I can find missing is to set a default download folder. Outside of that, it's now my daily driver.

Liftoff is good, but it needs UX design overhaul. Connect is good after recent update. I switched from Liftoff to Connect.

[โ€“] Saneless@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yes. At the moment it is my preferred one over jeroba and connect

[โ€“] RotatingParts@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Will it be available on F-droid?

I am not a regular app user (I prefer my stuff on browsers) and I'm finding it excellent.

easy to use, fast, simple and functional and I absolutely love features such as "make texts selectable". it's infuriating when apps don't allow that.

imo it doesn't need to get much more complex than that... nowadays most mobile devs simply don't care about performance and target only high end devices

I'm really happy that it is on Izzy
