The 0.18 version of Lemmy was announced. This will solve many issues.

But we can't upgrade yet because the captcha was removed, and captcha relied on Websockets, which are removed in 0.18 so despite the devs agreeing on my request to add captcha back, this will not be until 0.18.1. Without captcha we will be overrun by bots.

Hopefully this 0.18.1 will be released soon, because another issue is that the newest version of the Jerboa app won't work with servers older than 0.18. So if you're on Lemmy.world, please (temporarily) use another app or the web version.

Ok so guys, I appreciate the devs of Jerboa for doing what they do, but I am absolutely switching to another app immediately when something else decent shows up.

Sync for Lemmy can't come quick enough

I'm trying them all. As of today, Connect for Lemmy seems to be working the best

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Connect for Lemmy is the best thus far.

Connect is great, but take a look at Liftoff. It's even better. I think we'll see better apps than reddit ever had soon.

Edit: Releases since it' not on F-Droid or Playstore yet.

Edit: fixed link to releases.

Liftoff has no way to change font size yet. I find the text too small for easy reading. Trying all the apps at moment. Jerboa is fine, but currently cannot login until lemmy.world is updated. Connect seems to work ok. Basically they are all still a work in progress, but usable.

The latest version of Liftoff let you change font size.

Been using it for a while now. Feels great for being a WIP app but there are still some hiccups (can't suscribe to communities that aren't on the same instance as my account as an example). Prob will use both Jerboa and Liftoff

Btw you're releases link goes to the 0.9.6 release which is still lemmynade

Yep, I'll be sticking to Jerboa until Infinity for Lemmy is a thing.

How does it compare to wefwef.app ? I’ve been using it a couple of days and it’s been pretty sweet so far. Found it on r/apolloapp.

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

I just checked this out. Until a better native app is created, I feel like this is by far the best choice for using the site on mobile. Good find πŸ‘

Thunder on Android is the best of all the ones I've tried, Adaptive Icon and Material You support so feels very modern. It's a newer app but has a nice clean layout and development is happening fast.
