Voyager is becoming the leader, is FOSS and actively developed by a large community. I also like Arctic which is developed by a single person but is really nice as well and has iOS notifications.

I'm using Voyager, it's almost perfect
I'm commenting from Voyager now. Much better than it was a few months ago!
I gave up on memmy months ago because it was randomly crashing. The release schedule even back then was once a month at best.
I switched to the voyager “native” app (not the pwa) and it has been absolutely flawless with lots of updates.
Voyager is almost perfect, I only wish it had an iPad landscape-optimized interface (like Arctic).
I think this also might be the only iOS app that lets you view mod reports as well. I’m all about Voyager these days!
Arctic was the first iOS app to get mod features, voyager wasn’t far behind though.
I think lemmios was the first, but its development has died down.
Everyone is saying Voyager and Arctic, and rightfully so, they are amazing apps. But I just wanted to say Mlem has also become really great.
Mlem has been my go to
I moved from memmy to voyager and honestly it is a far better app. Memmy was too buggy and the dev basically abandoned it.
I've been using Mlem quite happily.
Hello fellow Mlemer.
It’s my backup app. I wish it had a markdown editor, though.
On iOS, I can recommend Mlem.
I bounce between Thunder, Voyager, and Arctic. I can’t make a final decision.
Sync for Lemmy
Same here. Just got some big bugfixes.
It was already mentioned in another place, by !Arctic@lemmy.world is my personal favorite at the moment.
I’m currently using Memmy and having no issues at all
I’m also using Memmy and I’m enjoying it so far.
The only problems I’m having is when someone replies directly to one of my messages. I don’t know why but I’m often not able to reply unless I load all the comments.
Also deleting the unread replies is complicated.
I might switch in the future but I’d just prefer if these issues were solved 😅
Finally, after trying Voyager, I guess I’ll move to that one.
As of the recent Lemmy update I’ve been having a bit of issues but it’s still running ok. Definitely some bugs creeping in but hopefully the devs feel less burnt out soon and can keep it working, even if they aren’t upgrading.
Connect has been perfect for over 8 months so far! YMMV.
Definitely not perfect, but besides for a brief hiatus the dev is still pushing out updates and actively listening to the community for feedback. 90% of the issues I've had have been resolved at this point.
I moved to Arctic months ago. It’s in continuous development with updates happening weekly or so, fixing bugs and making improvements. I’m very happy with it. Another commenter linked the community.
Am I the only one using Boost?
I’m on iOS so no boost for me :/
I am a Booster as well.
Thunder and Arctic are my go-to’s. Thunder because it looks different than the rest of the apps that try to emulate Apollo, and Arctic because it can embed and play videos/gifs from inside the app.
I use Voyager or Jerboa, pretty much half and half
Voyager. If only it had notifications.
I use Eternity myself, it was the best option for me after I dropped Liftoff due to its lack of support :)
Eternity seems abandoned too
I’ve truly loved Avelon and it seems to have the best native gif support of any app I’ve used, but I’m pretty sure the dev has abandoned it too ☹️
Jerboa has a came a long way
Isn’t that an android only app?
Yes i just saw people reccomending android ones .
I’ve been using it with no issues.
