I need your opinion and suggestions on the best Lemmy client to use.
P.S., I currently use Voyager as my client.
i’m on boost. i’ve tried quite a few options, but even with the ads, boost just feels like home.
Mlem
👍🏼
Jerboa is great. Free and made by the head Lemmy Dev. Never tried others
Raccoon, second best is Eternity
I was a Boost for Reddit user. Now using wefwef for Lemmy. Does the job.
👍🏼
Boost is available for Lemmy though
Tried voyager, thunder and jerboa, ended up using boost. Not that they are terrible, boost just vibed with me.
No one here using Jerboa??
I started using thunder when I got my current phone, which I do prefer but I liked Jerboa too.
It’s fine but if you compare Jerboa side to side with Sync, you see that Sync is much smoother.
Yep, the only decent mobile client.
Use use jerboa! I like the fact that you can see downvotes although I’m not sure if it’s specifically a jerboa thing or some apps just don’t do it
when I tried it, it lagged like no other app does. it genuinely had 10-20 fps
I use it. Had tried Voyager for a day or so, but came back to Jerboa.
I’m curious about Eternity, since I am a Infinity user. Haven’t tried it yet.
I found one person that reply to me using it.
I tried a bunch of apps last year and settled on jerboa. My only complaint is the inability to default sort comments by old.
I settled on it after trying Sync
Mlem looks the best but it feels choppy as hell. So I’m using voyager instead still quite good and runs smooth.
Mlem on ios as it has the best ui made with swift.
But my head feels dizzy after using it. 🥲
How does it make you feel dizzy?
The thread on the feed. Maybe just not suited to me.
I use Thunder currently. My first Android Lemmy client was Jerboa, which was fine.
I’ve tried Voyager, and I can’t remember right now why I didn’t stick with it, but I ended up just gravitating towards Thunder. It’s UI strikes the right balance between feature full and minimal imho.
Thanks for your honest opinion, mate.
I had the exact same experience lol.
As someone who was used to Apollo
and is still using it, I’ve seen no reason to switch from Voyager.#VoyagerFam
Tried all, ended up using Summit.
Same. Summit is amazing and since starting to use it a year ago I haven’t even wanted to try anything else again.
And for reference I used to use baconreader for a decade over on Reddit. Summit has a similar vibe for me.

Summit is a wonderful app, and the dev is super helpful. Can’t recommend Summit enough.
Wow, that’s the new thing for me!

I tried a handful, and the one I liked best is Thunder. There were aspects I liked about Voyager too, but Thunder was set up better in my opinion.
👍🏼
Welp, I’m on voyager too lol
The search is powerful!

If you where a RIF user, go with boost. It’s as close to rif as it gets. Since the rif dev went to that ban happy tildes site.
I loved Reddit Is Fun. I’ve been using Connect for Lemmy because it seemed very similar to me. I wonder if I should try boost out.
When I started using lemmy I just grabbed every app for it and tried them all. Boost is the closest I was able to find, and it has a ton of options to get it looking and feeling like RIF. The others were good, but just different. I liked RIF because of how simplistic it was, boost thankfully gives that same simplistic feel.
Is tildes still around? I haven’t heard from it since the blackout.
I believe so, it’s where a lot of us went at first, but then realized if the guy running it doesn’t like you, he just will ban you. Which is fine, it’s his site, but that’s not what I or many others wanted.
The web client is serviceable.
What do you mean by serviceable?
Does the job
