honestly i kinda like it but it is also a bit messy and buggy, and it also has a lot of things that heavily annoy me into using the website on mobile

the main problem is any time i get a reply, i tap the link to go to the reply and it goes to the post without context, what a mess

i also can't see new comments i post without reloading

idk if they fixed it but b4 i couldn't delete or edit posts/comments which was like ???

i do think it's way better than jerboa for many things, especially for a multi-account user who likes to swap onto other instances a lot. but its room to grow is obviously enormous. I won't try to discredit the devs, this is an amazing app for something so early in the game.

It's 2nd best to wefwef.app. The only thing wefwef needs is a grey theme, then it would be perfect. Also it's web based and no dedicated app. But the PWA app is quite good.

I have been using it extensively including on Desktop. Overall I am super happy I have a cross platform Lemmy app across different platforms from desktop to mobile.

It is cool that it has this ability. But for linux we need Flatpak. It is been worked out though.

The interface is fast on an oldish Android tablet and I like the way images swipe up and away smoothly. But I couldn't vote or comment on non-local posts that I could do on Connect. Not sure if that was a config setting I missed though.

My only gripe is that there does not seem to be a "context" button as the website has when people reply to my comments. Other than that, seems pretty solid.

I had some issues, but after I remembered to update everything is great.

[–] BoaPirate@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

no, I cant even access my community list... I had that bug for a two/three weeks, it makes app unusable. Interface is okey, could use some work

I started with Jerboa and moved to Liftoff due to bugginess. Then moved from Liftoff to Connect because it's easier to flip between accounts with fewer taps. I was on Boost for R and am hoping the new upcoming Lemmy app is as good.

Connect almost does it for me, but it doesn't let me set default to Front Page or Subscribed sorted by New. I don't want to have to tap multiple times to get to that view every time I open the app.

Trying it out as I wait for Boost. I didn't try any others. I like it enough to just stick with it I think since I'm waiting for Boost.

Good UX so far! Boost seems popular so will try that. But liftoff is great.
