Voyager: https://vger.app/. Also available as an Android and iOS app.
Been using voyager for a while and haven’t found a reason to change.
I second voyager. It’s what i’m using on iOS now.
Sync for Lemmy: /c/syncforlemmy
I love sync and it’s been my go to app for a decade across reddit and Lemmy, but I find it’s advertising and pro features far more frustrating now than ever before.
The dev also takes long breaks but I don’t mind this as his work while he’s active is really really good and fast.
If you already use revanced manager for YouTube or other apps, there is an ad free patch for an older version of sync which has an easy APK to seek out, which is recommend.
Voyager looks and feels like Apollo did. Fuck reddit, btw.
Voyager for a good app that has an iOS look. Jerboa uses Material design, if you prefer that, but to doesn’t work as well.
Idk if jerboa even has instance blocking in app yet. I switched to Voyager because it seemed always behind.
Jerboa’s instance blocking is actually one of the few ways it works better than Voyager, letting you block instances directly from the post dropdown rather than needing to go two menus deep into settings.
Shoot, I guess it was worth the wait even though I didn’t.
FWIW, Voyager has a Material-Design inspired alternative look that can be enabled in the settings.
Yeah, but it doesn’t look very good. Not compared to something like Jerboa or any other native Android app made with Material You.
I know enough people that hate Material Design 3, or even just the Monet component, so I’ll leave that for everyone to decide for themselves.
Boost for Android, or Voyager on iOS. These are definitely my choices, after extensive use
This is what I use for both.
Boost coming to Lemmy is what got me to try Lemmy.
Jerboa and Raccoon if you love FOSS
Sync If you don’t care about FOSS
I’m new, what does FOSS stand for? I’m currently using Sync.
Free and Open Source Software
I personally like Thunder. Jerboa felt too limited for me.
Been using voyager on iOS since nearly day 1. Seems fine. Might be better ones out there.
Eternity was great, but it’s likely abandoned now. I switched to voyager. And this is a nice clean app. No complaints from me.
Worth noting that I tried all the available apps from the lemmy app list. And I’ve worked them down to 3 liftoff, eternity and voyager. Two of these are abandoned now.
Since you tried them all, what is your take on summit? I mostly use it when not at a pc, smoke breaks, travel between places.
Last tim I tried Summit, was months ago but to tell you the truth. It was one of my favorites! it’s definietly better than thunder and boost. One app that i can compare it with is Eternity and Connect. The reason why it did not reside in my top three is because of my preference, there is a feel to an app that i am looking for, I really cannot describe it, I did not feel it with summit, but Eternity had it. But technically speaking. Summit is one of the very good apps for Lemmy, you will not regret it if you choose to use it.
to be frank, Voyager is the least of my three. Eternity did have all i was looking for, unfortunately it seems that it has been abandoned.
Thanks for this
I use Sync and Jerboa.
I liked Liftoff. Too bad it stopped being updated and does not work with 0.19+
I use Jerboa now.
Eternity
Hands down Jerboa for Android.
There are many great options here already, but I’ll add Connect to the list. Great client for Android.
I started with Connect and kept it because it’s very much like Bacon Reader. Haven’t had the need to try others.
