i’m beginning to suspect the devs in this space are in some secret competition over which of them can get us to say the silliest words with complete sincerity

As a former boost user, I'm waiting for Boost for Lemmy
I'm on android but I've tried a bunch (connect, summit, wefwef, another I forget) but I think Jerboa is the best. Seems the most functional by far. Can't wait for boost, though.
I miss the left-right scrolling navigation of bacon reader 😭
I just want to view one post and it's comments at a time and swipe left and right to switch between posts. Why does no other app do that?
Tried all of them, liftoff is way better
Liftoff was really slow/buggy for me and I think searching for communities was hard
Liftoff is pretty awesome. I find it smoother than Jerboa.
After using boost for years the biggest thing I hate about jerboa is that short and long taps on comments is backwards. Drives me nuts.
This is literally my one and only complaint for jerboa. Its maddening, I need an option to change the short and long taps lmao
I KEEP LONG PRESSING AND THE UPVOTE/DOWNVOTE BUTTONS DISAPPEAR! WHO WOULD WANT THIS?!

Wish it was on Android :( I've tried a bunch but none of them are great. The closest was wefwef, but being a web app has it's problems. I think I'm going back to Jerboa for now.
Liftoff is really good.
Wait are we talking proprietary software here? What is this, reddit?
We can't talk about proprietary software on Lemmy? 😱
It's fine, I just expected more people on here to be FOSS only (Free and Open Source Software) oriented.
Memmy for my phone, wefwef for the desktop. Best of both worlds
I recently gave Connect a try and now I have a new favorite App. The devs working on Lemmy apps are awesome. 😍
Same!!
Is it native or web app?
Can't stand constantly exiting out of wefwef every time I try to swipe back to the main page
Memmy is native and wefwef is a web app.
This keeps happening to me and I hate it.

Memmy 4 lyfe
Been on Memmy since the early stages and… damn that development speed!
Does memmy do kbin, though?
Ngl I think I like wefwef more after using both. Something just feels cleaner about it
I’ve been using Wefwef up to this point but switched to Memmy since it has blocking of communities and Wefwef doesn’t yet.
How do i get Memmy? I can't find any way to download it for android.
I think at one point they were planning on having an Android version too, but have scrapped it for now.
Probably because Lemmy apps for Android are saturated as hell so they decided to focus on the smaller base
There are none as good as Memmy though. And none with the design of Apollo (except wefwef, but that's a web app. It's ok, but it causes problems)
buy an iphone and download it
sadly the beta is full for ios
It’s available in the App Store if you have an iPhone!
thanks you so much! writing this from the awesome memmy app, a lot better than Mlem, imo
An app "to rule them all" would need to be multiplatform
This is my only grievance with the app, hope it'll come soon! Meanwhile I'm using mlem for multi-instance. Memmy is for leisure-browsing!
... to rule all iPhones?
I just use lemmy.blahaj.zone as a Brave home screen app, the other apps I've tried are either missing features or I don't like how they look
But Boost was my favorite for Reddit so I'm also waiting for that and then I'll see if I stay on the web app or move to Boost or maybe try a new one
I just use lemmy.blahaj.zone as a Brave home screen app
And the best part is that you get to support Brave by mining cryptocurrency for them whenever you use it
I have all the crypto stuff disabled. I've seen people say that Brave makes their GPU usage go crazy but they never go into much detail and in those posts there's always half of the comments saying they have the same issue and the other half saying they dont, maybe they have the brave tokens enabled? I don't know much about crypto but I suppose that could be the issue
Anyway I just use it because I saw Brave had a new search engine and I wanted to try it and then I forgot to switch back to whatever I was using before. But I don't have any issues with Brave and I don't have a reason to use a different one right now so I'll keep using Brave for now
Are you all able to upvote comments on Memmy? It’s the one issue I’m having with it
Yes! It has swipe actions. Swipe to the right for up and down vote. Swipe to the left to reply to a comment.
That was it, thank you!
