For how young these apps are Wefwef, Connect, and Jerboa are definitely killing it. Its amazing how fast these sprung up.

I second that, Lift off is fantastic. Stable with all the features you would expect to read and post. Also need to give a shout out to Jerboa

I liked liftoff much better, jerboa seems to have this strange bug where it loses connection and I have to restart the app and then lose my scrolling

Agreed! Liftoff has been an awesome replacement for Boost since switching to Lemmy. Can't wait for the Boost client though.

Yeah if I were one of these devs and saw this thread I'd be pretty disheartened. It's been like 4 weeks or so and people seem to expect a boost / sync / baconreader experience for a platform that for the majority is brand new.

Cheers to the hard working devs making apps ❀️

Seriously, OP's post is highly disrespectful imo. We can be excited for Boost without putting down others.

Yeah they're all really good and improving quickly. People are comparing mature stable reddit apps to alpha lemmy apps. Boost and sync will be buggy at the beginning and will get better.

… and Wefwef updates are fast and constantly improving what is already very good. I’ve tried Memmy, but Wefwef is my favourite with some recent fixes of glitches in the matrix.

Wefwef is now Vayager, just spreading the word!

Do you have a link to the announcement or something? I remember it being discussed a few days ago

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I’m using it currently and don’t know how to get a link, but I searched posts for wefwef vayager and found a pinned post in the wefwef community pretty easily.
