Slide, except for moderating a couple of specific subs where I needed the bullshit that's only available via the official crapp

Infinity
Baconreader!!
Alien Blue and the Apollo.. both were incredible for their time and nothing compares.
Relay for Reddit, which was called Reddit News back in the day. I'm aware it still works; dbrady is developing support for subscriptions for those who want that.
I'm going back and forth between Connect and Thunder for Lemmy. Connect seems most like Relay, but they're both good.

Apollo
Slide. It was open source and available on f-droid. It had been a while since the last update and some features were long longer working (in-app YouTube Playback). But I would just open in browser things that didn't work.
It was very easy to use and highly customizable, which is why I used it. And zero ads. Can't stand ads of any kind.
Relay. I still use it. It still works.
Rif. Now using Voyager. It's the closest experience I've found.
Relay. Besser als boost :p
BaconReader. I didn't shop around. I just downloaded one, liked it enough, and it never gave me reason to go hunting for something different. Unlike the official app, which was one my phone for all of maybe a day.
Relay Pro
Boost and Infinity. Then Teddit and Libreddit for the browser.
Relay. And I still miss it. Better than any of the other apps I've tried for reddit or lemmy. Very smart design and UX that made it far more usable and enjoyable.
ReddPlanet
Apollo. Now using Narwhal.
Boost for Reddit (And hopefully Lemmy soon)
Relay, then Boost, ended on Infinity.
Started with Sync then Boost when I found it. Boost was my favorite of all I tried.
Slide then Sync
Slide
Apollo
Reddit is Fun.
Back when I was on iOS, I started with Alien Blue, then I moved to Apollo when reddit purchased it.
After I switched to android, I settled on Sync and Boost. I used Sync about 90% of the time but I had my alts on Boost and would have different feeds split between the apps. The last few versions of Boost had gotten me to start thinking about using it more but then the API changes were announced.
^The^ ^official ^one...^
Joey, and Boost up until a few years ago.
Sun for reddit.
The developer is porting it over for lemmy
Boost for Reddit and the Sync for Reddit, good news is that both apps are coming for Lemmy.
BaconReader for a while, then Boost the past couple of years. Anxiously awaiting Boost for Lemmy, but trying out a lot of others in the meantime.
I started out with BaconReader, then I moved over to Sync, then when Sync development slowed down I moved over to Infinity
Sync, then something (I don't remember what) pushed my to Joey)
Started with Boost, then switched to Infinity because Boost Pro wasn't compatible with CalyxOS.
Apollo on iOS Sync on Android
