Brand new to the platform. Just wondering if I have to use my browser each time. Thanks. Ps. F reddit mods

I use Boost for Lemmy
Thunder has been great so far
I like the link previews. Not getting rickrolled again.
We’re no strangers to love…
It loves to freeze up randomly while scrolling and take fucking forever to become responsive again (usually I just kill it), but ignoring that, it’s a pretty solid app.
No way to reply to direct messages, though. Gotta pull up the instance site. So other than that…
Many of the third party Reddit apps switched to Lemmy when the API got locked down. I’m using Sync for Lemmy, but there’s plenty others.
I recommend trying a few of them out to see which one(s) you like:
- Connect
- Boost
- Jerboa
- Sync
I liked Jerboa, but after a lemmy upgrade, Jerboa took too long to support the new protocol, so I switched to Voyager. I would probably be using Jerboa again if there was a simple way of exporting my blocks et al. back to Jerboa.
Unless an app is doing something weird, your blocks should be tied to the account and not the app.
I still use Jerboa. I’m a fan.
I’m using Jerboa
Friendly Social Browser is decent but I would recommend an actual app for it
I use voyager which I know is available on iOS. There’s a lot of android options as well.
I use Voyager on Android phone and iPad.
It’s not perfect, but it’s the least sucky Lemmy experience I’ve had so far.
Voyager
I use voyager on android and I’m happy with it so far.
Voyager is good in some ways but I think Mlem is better in a bunch more ways. I really dislike that in voyager when you are typing a comment you can’t pull down to see the thread or anything at all as it tries to delete your comment. Why in the world would I want to delete my comment by pulling down like that? So many apps do that, like YouTube.
I find mlem better in all ways except is has all sorts of annoying haptic actions and weird alerts, but they seem to be attenuating with each update
Voyager gang.
There’s like 40 of them lol. I personally like Voyager, but there are a bunch of really good options.
many of them are archived, outdated or simply removed. that list needs a total recheck.
Last commits shows the one that haven’t been updated for a while
I’ve tried a few, voyager fits what I need.
Connect gang rise
https://join-lemmy.org/apps is a better list
I really like boost
I used RIF in the before times, and boost is the closest thing I’ve found to duplicate that experience.
Same, RIF to Boost. It’s been a great transition.
I used memmy.
I’m sorry for not answering OP’s question but I have a similar question. Is there an app that has been mentioned here support mbin (kbin folk)?
i think there is only interstellar
That’s correct. When we know of more apps, they’ll be added here: joinmbin.org/apps.
Oh thanks, it is only for Android for now right?
yes
Voyager has all the features. There are only a couple others that are full featured.
Does voyager have ads? I’m on Eternity and need to switch.
I don’t know. I block ads. Haven’t seen any evidence of them.
I’m using Boost. I used to use their reddit app, happy to see when they came out with a Lemmy app.
I use the sync app and love it. Got it from the Google play store
Was a reddit sync user, now a lemmy sync user
See the website https://join-lemmy.org/apps
Oops, the one I like is flagged for being closed-source. I followed Boost over from Reddit once they made a Lemmy client.
Anyone know of an android compatible app that lets you tag users? It’s a lockout spec for me; I want to be able to tag the likely trolls so I don’t get sucked into their shenanigans but don’t have to fully block them.
Sync allows user tagging, but it’s a feature of the Ultra version since those tags are stored on sync’s private server. Ultra got a few other perks such as in-app translation, text extraction (from pictures / screenshots) etc., but it’s rather pricey.
I use sync and yeah it’s paid, but I thought it was worth it
I do as well, just wanted to state all the facts.
Loving Mlem on iOS
