Voyager. I tried a few others but Voyager has a very slick UI and all the features I want.

wefwef 4 lyfe!!

BowtiesAreCool ,

Same. It was a seamless transition from Apollo (RIP)

Same. Even on android the gestures are better than all others.

HaywardT ,

Voyager - it was on f droid and it works.

Jerboa because it's the closest I have found to RIF other than Liftoff, which no longer works since most instances have updated to 0.19 and above.

The dude working in it had a kid (made an announcement for it) and then hasn't seemed to work on it since. Which is understandable, I guess. Kids ruin everything. 😩

Does it still work pretty well? I tried it for awhile but ran into some issues I can't remember early on. If I could get close to RIF for Lemmy, my battery would drain a lot quicker

The only issue I have is that it doesn't seem to poll for messages/reply notices unless I close and reopen it.

TrueStoryBob ,

I'm having the same issue with message/reply but otherwise it's a great app.

newbeni ,

I'm still wanting the "marked as read" option though, I'm not a huge fan of having to vote on everything.

JackbyDev ,

Jerboa has some weird problems very early on, but I don't really have any now. I'd suggest trying it again.

Salix ,

Isn't Jerboa an Android native app? I don't think they have a web app like how Alexandrite or Photon are.

TootSweet ,

Jerboa. Because it's fully open source and it's the first one I installed and I have yet to have enough of a problem with it to look for alternatives. (The left-right swipe features are... not a good thing, but they're not bad enough to make me want to switch.)

Grangle1 ,

Yeah, I'm a Jerboa user too. The left-right swipe is my only criticism as well, mainly because it can be sensitive when you're just trying to scroll up or down.

lastunusedusername2 ,

Can't you just turn that off in the settings?

TootSweet ,

Yes! I didn't even think to check until now. Thank you, kind stranger!

That’s my go to app for desktop

I use Photon on Android Firefox in light mode. Shocked the hell out of me, too! I use dark mode for everything else.

scytale ,

Alexandrite is the best web front-end for me because of the 2-column view.

helmet91 ,

The amount of people not knowing what a "web app" is, is seriously concerning.

Anyway, I tried "old" and Alexandrite, but I just ended up sticking with the default. I find "old" ugly, and on Alexandrite, I couldn't find my saved posts. Maybe it has been fixed since, but the default one works for me best.

aniki ,

Firefox, because I fucking hate apps.

Hey OP, I love you! I never used a Lemmy WebApp because I see no sense in it, but I tried Photon because of some comments in your post and holy fuck I have missed so much! It's incredible that I can even have two accounts at the same time from different instances without changing the URL!

Xylight ,
@Xylight@lemdro.id avatar

glad you like photon! :)

Delusional ,

Sync and idk why.

chatokun ,

Sync and I was already used to it when I abandoned Reddit.

Is this thread intended for 1. Android/mobile users 2. iOS/mobile users 3. People with computers/mouse/keyboard or what? It seems most Lemmy threads are pretty exclusively aimed at mobile users.

Meltrax ,

Boost on Android. Used it for reddit, use it for Lemmy now that it swapped over.

Nougat ,

None, because I don't use lemmy.

Arctic and Mlem for iOS.

Arctic is my primary, it was the first that I know of to include admin tools, the single developer is super accessible and on top of for resolving bugs and does a good job at supporting markdown both in the editor and the viewer.

Mlem is my backup if I need to access 2 different spots on the Lemmy-verse. It has a great viewer and interface but is missing a markdown editor.
