I’m using Memmy but trying to read comments in my notifications crashes the app half the time and seems like it’s not getting updates.

Any good alternatives that can actually handle comments on Lemmy?

      Same! There are still a few glitches that need to be worked out, but crashing happens rarely. If the app does crash in the middle of typing something, it saves it for the next time you open the app. The creator is active and makes regular updates so I’m very happy with this app.

    I personally use Thunder. In a sea of Apollo looking apps, Thunder is unique and stands out. Special mention to Arctic and Avelon because they can embed and play videos/gifs without opening the in-app browser. Lemma can do it too but it’s still very new and lacks features.

      I use Thunder for the exact same reasons. I’m personally not a big fan of the Apollo look. Just doesn’t do it for me. Thunder has also been the most stable for me as well.

    I feel like the jury’s still out a bit. We had some insane development during July, then it steadily dropped off. Lots of decent apps, but not many being updated during the last month.

    And they aren’t really in that good of a state, still many kinks to iron out.

    Lemma is a newcomer that seems pretty great. I miss some sorting options, other than that it’s awesome.

    Mlem, Bean, Avelon, and lots more! (Mlem is open source and native, am one of the contributors and it’s under active development 🥲)

    I keep switching between Voyager and Avelon. I like both of them and am having trouble deciding which I like better.

      Same here, currently using Avelon and pretty happy with it… Voyager dev recently announced he’ll be working on it less going forward which may or may not be an issue 🤷🏻‍♂️

      Both definitely feel like using “Apollo for Lemmy” though 👍

      Memmy was on track for a while but imo their user interface is awful in comparison to Apollo. I’d highly recommend checking out Voyager if you liked Apollo’s interface, its almost a 1:1 copy
