Sticky so that we have one place to discuss.
Sync for Lemmy (android)
Sync and Boost are indeed outstanding, just like they were on Reddit. My two favourites, no doubt about it
I’ve been using Sync for a couple of hours and already uninstalled Liftoff and Connect hahaha. Don’t get me wrong they’re both great, but Sync is that much better
Same, already paid for year’s subscription too. I used Sync for reddit and trust the developer to make a quality app.
Same
Not a native app, but i’m using the wefwef web app, and it’s pretty awesome and getting multiple updates a day.
It’s a web based clone of Apollo
Wefwef looks nice and I really want to like it but I keep tapping the back button and getting sent all the way back to my communities list, and therefore losing my spot in the scroll. It’s getting old really fast.
Little update for anyone stumbling across this: it’s now called Voyager (https://vger.app) and is also available as a native app (web wrapper, but still):
- iOS: App Store Link
- Android: Google Play Store
Loves me some Boost. Boost is the moost.
Jerboa seems great to me
Android: Eternity (A Lemmy client for Android, forked from the Infinity for Reddit project.) https://f-droid.org/packages/eu.toldi.infinityforlemmy/
Could we get a new pinned comment for this. Some of this is our of date now and it would be nice to discuss.
Apps, interfaces, browser extensions, scripts
We could - but we’re still getting comments here. Why not continue to use this thread and sort by new?
Also - this topic doesn’t even really belong in Asklemmy per the rules. If anything, I’m more inclined to unpin it and return to dealing with posts as needed.
I agree with unpinning entirely, it’s an odd fit
Idk, i use Eternity (Infinity Fork).
I love eternity! Although it’s probably because I was so used to infinity beforehand.
I tried jerboa and liftoff as well and they were fine, but eternity just has that familiar feel
Boost
New Lemmy user here. I have two points of improvement I’d like to note, but am not sure where the actual ‘responsibility’ lies.
- It would be great to be able to mass-block communities from lists, rather than tiresomely do them one -at-a-time from ‘All’.
It would also be useful to see the list for subscribing, as I don’t know what’s out there until I see it. Sometimes I can’t think of something to search for until I see it.
Perhaps this lies more with individual apps/ clients rather than the Lemmy ecosystem…?
- May I suggest that communities entirely consisting of bots re-posting Reddit links is, uh, unhelpful?
Anyone?
Android user here, I’m quite happy with Connect for Lemmy
The official community is at /c/lemmyconnect
Liftoff, at least It was the best for me at the time when sync came out. I tried everything back then, but I should do it again
Really liking thunder, now that it can view profiles and edit comments.
https://wefwef.app is amazing. PWA and hence cross-platform.
I’ve got it installed as a PWA (Firefox Android). It’s great but is there any way to get it to open links in my proper browser rather than the web view type thing?
Where are you guys installing this from? Obtanium says it can’t find a suitable release. And it’s not on Play Store or F-Droid.
Android user here. Liftoff is unmatched in terms of its visual presentation.
