I’m posting from Memmy for Lemmy on iOS, but flip between it and Mlem as they out-update each other. Glorious days, these are.
I’m using Memmy, Mlem, Liftoff, Thunder and wefwef lmao
Just commented the same lol they seem to be missing complimentary features at the moment. Memmy would be good if I could figure out how to see my subscribed communities and go directly to a community. Not sure if that feature is missing or buried. Mlem was a lot worse a week ago but now the only problem I’m having is I can’t get back to a post I’ve commented on if I get a reply. If that gets fixed, I’ll be happy with Mlem. Both are probably going to be great but I came from Apollo.
Hey, I can help with the direct to community issue! It’s just like Apollo was. When you’re in “All”, just click on that in the top center and you can enter your community name. Some will auto populate.
Christ.. nope, that’s Mlem. My bad.
Memmy and WefWef mainly on iOS.
I’ll add that Mlem is pretty awesome too.
My eyes
You aren't wrong...
Tried quite a few and enjoying WefWef the most right now, gets updates frequently too. It's a cross platform progressive web app and good ones are rare to see. https://wefwef.app/
WefW
The frequency of updates is insane. Multiple updates a day at the moment lol. Still, I kinda miss Sync. I'm hyped for that.
I’ve fallen in love with Memmy but gosh damn, if wefwef isn’t updated even more frequently than Yuzu EA
Liftoff. I tried the rest but Liftoff seems the best.
jerboa when it feels like working but as soon as sync releases I'm switching over
Have you tried Liftoff?
This, I had been a sync user for the past decade. Will immediately install sync for lemmy when it releases. Likely the pro/ultimate as well once available.
Same, eagerly awaiting.
Right now my main app is Liftoff, with Jerboa being a very close second.
What is it about liftoff that you like Vs the other apps that are in TestFlight
Tried most I could find on github and the playstore, and liftoff was the first that kinda ticked all the boxes. Only thing I'm missing is an option to view all account at once, with a filter for duplicated subscription posts.
I like the ability to navigate by swiping, and also Liftoff handles images better than any of the other apps. There's a slight loading delay on Connect and Jerboa, whereas in Liftoff, the image opens right away and you can easily swipe it away to close it.
Lemmy Connect
Wefwef.app I'm really enjoying it too
Wefwef is IOS app that work in Android. :)
It's so Apollo'ish!
Currently I use Jerboa first, but if that doesn't work I switch to Connect, then Wefwef then just a web browser. All to wait for Sync for Lemmy to release.
So happy to see that so many sync users actually made the switch from Reddit, I was unsure if I'd just be one of a few, bit it seems like a ton of us jumped over.
Oh yeah, the Sync for Lemmy communities are hopping. I thought the same as you since most people talk about Boost or RIF or whatnot. Glad to see a lot of us are still supporting ljdawson
My eyes, usually
I've also been using your eyes, usually
Android user here, i use Jerboa 🙋♂️
Currently using wefwef, but I’m waiting to try the others that are available for iOS once they get out of the TestFlight stage.
FYI Memmy is on the App Store now. It’s a slightly outdated version but there should be an update for that any day now.
Oh great! I’ll have to check it out!
Desktop browser. Firefox more specifically.
Memmy
Btw I love the name Memmy for Lemmy😂
Wefwef
Lift off.
I just use the mobile website. It works and doesn't harass me to use something else, which are both huge improvements from Reddit!
The Mlem app deserves more attention. Wefwef is very good but Mlem should be in the mix. I switch between both.
any news on when they would release on the app store? i’m really looking forward to mlem but i cant access apps with test flight atm
No idea. They do have a community here so you can probably subscribe and keep an eye on it.
Mozilla Firefox
Connect and wefwef. But also keeping an eye on the other apps when they get updated.
Even though there are plenty of great and quickly evolving mobile apps, I use the web interface both on desktop and mobile devices. It's actually quite good, and since I'm a mod and instance admin, the feature completeness is key. Apps are not there yet.
Connect for Lemmy on Android
Been using Memmy on iOS & the official website for Mac
Memmy for Lemmy on iOS and Mac is awesome
My eyes.. nah I use the regular lemmy website on my computer and wefwef/jeboa on mobile.
wefwef and Firefox!
I rotate between Jerboa, Connect, Liftoff, and Thunder. Lately, I've been using Jerboa the most though.
I've found myself defaulting to liftoff lately and not regretting it, but threads like these remind me to not get complacent! I found jerboa tough to get started with but decent after configuration was done. I like wefwef as well.
Fwiw I was a Boost user on Reddit
Already in love with https://wefwef.app . Feels really snappy on both Android and iOS, really great job from the developers. Also copying the Apollo UI/UX made me feel comfortable since minute 1.
I use mostly the web app. Memmy, Mlem, Jerboa, Liftoff, etc. all look cool, but to be honest, I'm not sure I'll ever go back to having an app on my phone like I did with Reddit. I think I want my engagement with Lemmy to be more on a "when I feel like it" basis than a "when a push notification summons me" basis.
I have installed and tried all of them. Right now, WefWef running under Brave is winning on Android.
It's fast, the gestures are great The media works, I can resize and download images easily get to read and clear my inbox and see my post history.
My eyes
Just kidding, i use Liftoff.
Web on desktop and mobile.
Memmy, love it
Connect for Lemmy on Android
I like it but it ate up my internet package when I was on vacation.
Thunder on Android. Waiting patiently for sync for lemmy.
I'm just using mobile Chrome until Sync for Lemmy is released.
As a huge Sync fan, Liftoff is pretty good for while we wait. If you're looking.
Switching between Memmy and Mlem. They seem to compliment each other in missing features. Although as Mlem improves, I’ll probably stay there. I’m used to Apollo.
Wefwef on iOS. I only wish I could block communities from it. Otherwise, it’s great and I love it!
I was using Firefox on android for a couple of weeks, with a link of my home screen to make it feel more like an app, but everything I left the app, Firefox would crash. I re-downloaded thr DuckDuckGo browser and tried the same thing with that, and had much more success.
I also downloaded and tried Jerboa, but it wouldn't remember my browsing preferences, always defaulting to Local communities, sorted by Active. Also, Day was the smallest increment under the Top sorting. None of that matched with my preferences.
Mostly connect on my phone, haven't browsed much on desktop. Waiting on boost for lemmy though since I used to use the reddit version a lot.
Wef right now. I was using jerboa but not always working. Wef is feeling like home to me.
On my macbook I just go on firefox and use the lemmy.world site
on my phone i do have a bunch of apps installed but im pretty much exclusively using memmy, i just check in on the other ones to see how development is going
Genuinely, I just use the site itself either on desktop or my phone. I've tried Jerboa, Summit, and Thunder, and while they're all good (Thunder was my favorite), the base webpage (with the darkly-compact theme) is more than good enough for my needs. That this is true is a great achievement on the part of the Lemmy devs, in my opinion.
Mlem
Connect on Android. Waiting for Sync to come, supposed to be in the next 6 weeks I read.
I came from the official Reddit app and started with Mlem, then Memmy shortly after.
Kinda accidentally stuck with Memmy and haven’t touched Mlem for a few days. Makes me wish I’d tried Apollo when I actually used Reddit but it doesn’t matter cuz I’m not going back anyway.
I did sign up for Sync though so I’ll probably give that a chance when it becomes available.
I’ve been jumping between Mlem and Memmy. I prefer Mlem (especially after their update today) but for now, Memmy is more stable so I use it when Mlem is being buggy
I’ve tried all the apps and honestly they are all great. I use memmy mainly as I much prefer the UI. The only app I haven’t tried is mlem because it would not let me sign in and gave me an error whenever I tried
Been trying a bunch of apps but I think I’ve settled on wefwef. It’s very well-made and is basically Apollo for Lemmy.
Just a browser for now - set up Firefox Beta on my phone and put the icon where my reddit app used to be. I have Lemmy, Kbin, Squabbles and Tildes bookmarked here and constantly open in tabs, so that it's separate from my regular browsing and I can just switch to ut similarly to opening RIF i the past.
Might switch to apps when they mature a bit more, but for now I'm actually enjoying the browser experience.
The beta of Mlem for iOS
Jerboa on Android and https://slemmy.libdb.so/ on Desktop.
So far web has been the best for me. I hope the apps can get really good eventually but everything seems to be the most reliable through a browser.
Android, summit.
Read?
Liftoff
Mobile browser, thunder and connect, atm.
Mixture of Memmy and Mlem apps
Same. Can’t decide which one I prefer.
