What android client do you use?

I keep coming back to connect. I find it offers the best feature set currently.

I just moved to Connect and I am really impressed. I was waiting for Boost, but I think I might stay here.
Is Connect open source? I can't find a repo for it.
- It's not.
  
  The dev says they'll open source it later, but it's just hypothetical for now.

wefwef until boost is released

Wefwef (now Voyager) until Sync is released. Honestly Voyager is pretty damn good already.
Check out Voyager - wefwef is retired I think
- It's the same app. Both works.

Jerboa. Does everything I need it to.

When Boost for Lemmy comes out however I will most likely transition to there.

Tried jerboa first, then connect, for me connect is way better and reminds me of rif.

I switched to Connect for Lemmy and it's great

This almost reads like an ad for T-Mobile or something hah.
- "I'm commander Shepard and this is my favorite store on the Citadel."

Thunder for me

Using Voyager for now because it's the least fussy, in terms of not needing to install anything. The instancr in signed up on, Lemmy.zip, has it installed as their mobile site!

Just waiting for Boost so I can launch the rocket :)

It's getting close.

Just a reminder to folks that there's a list of app over here if you're unfamiliar with any of the ones being mentioned: https://lemdro.id/post/4319

Link is taking me to a different post. Is the link correct?
- Yep, it works for me! You can also find it pinned at [email protected]

https://vger.app is brilliant

And the development on it is just remarkable, we're getting updates almost daily (knocks on wood)!
Gonna use it until sync comes back

using connect for now, ill be switching to boost once its available!

Loved Boost for Reddit and realized it was the only reason I actually checked reddit for anything. Super excited to use the Lemmy version, especially since it was killed right after the Material 3 redesign lol.

Currently I'm using Connect for Lemmy as it's the closest to what I'm used to. In fact, it seems like the dev is trying to make a clone of Sync lol. But I'm chomping at the bit for the release of Sync for Lemmy

Dumb question but how did you manage to write japanese in your username? I tried it on another account yesterday and it didnt allow me to

Edit: nevermind found it! It's in the display name field of the profile
- Yes! Glad you doing it! Quick note: apparently, 2 characters is too short for a display name lol

Currently using liftoff and its been great and done everything I want it to do but will be jumping ship the second Sync for lemmy comes out. [email protected]

Side not, holy shit when you put an "!" the start typing a sub while on desktop it starts to autopopulate then you can pick what you want and it just puts in the formatting. Idk if that is instance specific or something lemmy itself just does but it's awesome.

I've tried them all, and as of right now Connect feels the most polished and feature rich. So that's my recommendation.

Same story here, and Connect seems to be the furthest along.

I'll probably switch to Sync for Lemmy when it makes it's debut, but Connect is almost a good enough replacement.

I'm on Jerboa right now but I used Sync before that so once Sync for Lemmy comes out I'm switching back right away

Same but with Boost

I'm using Connect for Lemmy though I am waiting for Sync to release as a Lemmy client. Once that releases I'll probably switch to that.

I'm in the same boat. Sync was my go to Reddit client and will most likely be my go to Lemmy client. For now though I don't mind Connect and it's Canadian so gotta support the fellow Cannuck lol
Sync is gonna blow the fediverse away!

Still just using the PWA, tbh. It's not perfect but I'm overall pretty happy with it. Probably won't move to an app until Sync or Artemis launch.

I've looked at many as an alternative to Jerboa but they all seem to be very similar to each other.
Looking forward to Boost!

Connect is by far the most polished but the bar isn't that high unfortunately. I'm waiting for Sync, it was the best Reddit client in my opinion. At least when it came to UX, it was really good. I have high expectations for Sync for Lemmy.

Voyager, and Liftoff.

I move between Thunder and Connect. Connect added a bottom navigation option that I really like making it the current leader.

I've been using Jerboa for a while now, and it looks like I'm staying for a while on this boat.

Recent versions of Jerboa are the best I've tried.

I rotate between liftoff, connect, and jerboa. All three are fantastic but I'm growing a preference for liftoff

I'm waiting for Sync for Lemmy to arrive. I've just been using the website on mobile. It's not that bad!

As a Sync Pro user for years, I suggest giving Connect a shot. The swipe to hide posts was what finally locked me in.

I'm going to jump to Sync as soon as it's available, but Connect is a good holdover.
- I did see Connect a lot in my local feed, as its dedicated forum is a community in my account's instance. It looks promising and I'll try it out. Thanks for the suggestion.

Sadly most client has jitter scrolling except voyager and summit

Summit user here too.

It's very rough and ready but it works, and does seem to be updated every now and then.

It's very feature-light but hopefully that'll get patched in now while the Lemmy app goldrush bumps up a gear.

Jerboa has stuck with me the most. Also wefwef. I bounce between those.

I am patiently waiting for Sync though.

Boost was incredible when I was on the previous platform!

I want to try that out. I did use Liftoff, Jerboa and Connect.

May be this will change when Boost comes on the Play Store, but for now, Jerboa has been my go-to.

Liftoff has been pretty great so far. Looking forward to trying Sync though.

connect

I switch back and forth between Jerboa and Liftoff. Looking forward to see what Sync will bring to the table.

Same. Jerboa has been pulling ahead of Liftoff for me though, so I haven't used it as much recently. Looking forward to trying Sync and Boost.

Coming from Joey For Reddit — Connect is most similar. I'm still very open to new clients as Joey only just stopped working Yesterday.

Yep, Connect has a lot of visual customizations (like our dear departed Joey) that I enjoy in an app. Liftoff is also quite good.

Liftoff will always be my favourite

Connect. I was going to use boost, but it hasn't arrived, and I've been surprisingly happy with connect.

Joey for reddit was dropped and was looking for reddit replacement. Found this and using Connect. So far so good.

I'm self-hosting an instance of voyager and it's been great so far. The devs are pushing updates so often, sometimes I have to update it twice in a single days.

Jerboa for Lemmy. Also pre-registered for Boost for Lemmy and Slide for Lemmy.

The voyager app is rock solid I'm amazed how it fares against apps. I hope jerboa can keep improving as it is the "official" way of browsing lemmy.

Thunder is the best, then connect.

I downloaded Thunder from Neostore but haven't tried it yet. I'm currently using Connect as my goto and enjoying the experience of the app and Lemmy so far.
- Definitely give Thunder a try after customizing the settings (swipe section). Summit updated so I'll be using that today since gestures have been added. It's still snappier than the other apps.

Thunder is very smooth and easy to use.

Jerboa for now, but Liftoff sounds promising and I might give it a try.

I'm using the current Thunder nightly. I think it has the best design and does everything I want it to do.

I'm enjoying connect with AMOLED theme and smaller text and images. It's the most RIF feel I could find.

I want thunder to be better than it is right now. Thankfully the dev is working hard at it, but it's very slow to load, logs me out, and says it can't fetch my subscribed list of communities... Sigh. It looks so nice, too.

For now jerboa is nice

I've got jerboa, but typically I just use a web browser since the mobile experience is really good for most fediverse platforms, and when they're not it's an opportunity to improve them -- lotide had a terrible experience on mobile until I improved it on my site which then the dev used to create a whole new theme that worked way better on mobile.

wefwef.app

Jerboa is the only one I've used and it does the job.

I started with Jerboa because I browse in compact mode and it reminded me the most of Boost, but once I found Thunder there was just no going back. Very polished UI and the dev team has been on a roll with fixes and features. It's only on GitHub right now but it's pending review on the play store. Check it out even if you tried it a week or two ago - it's great and only getting better!

Using Jerboa for now until either Slide for Lemmy or Infinity for Everything are more stable.

Waiting for Sync for Lemmy. Meanwhile is use the Voyager webapp (previously called wefwef)

Liftoff. Waiting for Sync for Lemmy.

I normally use Thunder as my main client since it's smooth and is pretty customizable.

But I sometimes use Jerboa whenever a feature is missing

I've switched between Liftoff, Jerboa and Connect and although I don't feel there is much between either of them in terms of features and functionality, I have settled on Connect. I came over from Reddit and was a big fan of Slide and Infinity fwiw.

maybe its just me but Jerboa and Liftoff regularly logged me out?!

I think Connect is the best one out right now. Most features, customization, and polish.

I've been bouncing back and forth between Connect and Summit.

Connect has more features though that I want and is currently in my number 1 spot. I tried all the others too so if I had to choose a #3, it would be WefWef/Voyager.

I started on Jerboa. The instance I'm on stayed on 17.4, and Jerboa stopped working. Rather than downgrade Jerboa versions, I moved to Liftoff and couldn't be happier.

Liftoff for now. It's the least buggy Android client I have come across. I definitely prefer Memmy on iOS though.

I tried Liftoff, Connect, and Jerboa, and settled on Jerboa.

I was waiting for Boost to release but ended up installing Connect and have been really happy with it. I'm probably going to stick with it.

Used to use boost and then switched to Joey back on Reddit. I tried Connect at first on Lemmy, but it just kept crashing any time I scrolled far down. Switched to Liftoff for a while but had some issues with the way it manages accounts and I kept seeing the same posts over and over. Now I'm on Jerboa and I've had no issues with accounts, memory, or it not being customizable enough.

Connect, Jerboa, Voyager and Summit.

My favourite at the moment is Summit. It preloads images so feels snappier, and has a layout option of thumbnails on the right which I prefer.

I'd like to be able to turn off the swipe actions, my thumbs like to drift when I tap so that UX isn't optimal for me.

I flick between apps, all the above are rapidly improving!

You can move the thumbnails to the right in Connect too.
- Yes, you're right! I should point out that the things I like about Summit are not exclusive to Summit!
  
  I also noticed Connect is showing images faster than it used to.
  
  It's great to have lots of options and compare them side by side. Coming from RIF, it's not hard to get comfortable.

Bouncing between connect and jerboa

Any clients with built in video upload support?

Lemming and Fennec

I've tried both jerboa and liftoff. I kept having issues in posting and the apps thinking I wasn't signed in. Now uisng voyager and it's finally feeling good to scroll around and not a chore

Jerboa as a placeholder for Boost. In fact launched the rocket a little bit ago in anticipation.

Still using the browser, I just like the look and feel of Lemdro.id but it seems to me that this is how most Lemmy instances look in any way I'll eventually switch to an app just not now

Using connect at the moment. Tried most of them but connect just reminds me of slide and I am so looking forward to seeing slide here. Life is so much more fun again ;)

tried jerboa thunder and some other one I think but liftoff is the only one that runs smoothly for me
