Wait, what's wrong with Jerboa? I'm using Jerboa and it's been great so far

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Jerboa doesn't autoplay gifs (or didn't when I used it), that what made me stick to liftoff and I don't regret it.

It kept crashing randomly for me.

I tried all the apps I memed out at some point or another (and we're all Reddit refugees I presume).

I had frequent stability issues with Jerboa, switched to liftoff, which was far more stable. UI wasn't the prettiest, but reasonably nice. Gave sync a brief spin, wasn't very impressed, and ads/data collection wasn't appealing. I stuck to liftoff till I found infinity had been ported to lemmy.

I'd used infinity for Reddit for years, same experience on Lemmy now, loving it!

I'm still waiting for Boost for Lemmy to come out. Maybe I'll try Infinity though if it's a great as you say

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Ah, a fellow Boost enjoyer. That was my favorite Reddit app by far.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'm on the same bandwagon, boost was n1 but infinity n2... So... If they take too long I might give it a go.

I've been flipping between Jerboa and liftoff. Unless I'm missing something Jerboa doesn't have the downvote arrow. Not that I ever downvote anyway. But besides that, I think I like the feel of Jerboa better.

Sort options seem better in liftoff though (again, unless I'm missing something in Jerboa).

I'll probably give infinity a try now because of this post.

Your server (https://reddthat.com) has disabled downvotes, jerboa respects the server's settings.

Aha! That's good to know. Thanks!

Jerboa definitely has a downvote button lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago
