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.

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.

I'm just using mobile Chrome until Sync for Lemmy is released.

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.

Wef right now. I was using jerboa but not always working. Wef is feeling like home to me.

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.

[–] uhauljoe@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] Enasni@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] WiseMoth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] Zero@ezekielrage.com 1 points 1 year ago

Android, summit.

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

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Connect on Android. Waiting for Sync to come, supposed to be in the next 6 weeks I read.

[–] JaasBaas@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] Candelestine@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Mobile browser, thunder and connect, atm.

[–] 2Xtreme21@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] agelord@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Jerboa on Android and https://slemmy.libdb.so/ on Desktop.

The beta of Mlem for iOS

[–] doctortofu@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

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.

Mixture of Memmy and Mlem apps

[–] citrixscu@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Same. Can’t decide which one I prefer.
