I just made the switch to Lemmy and I’m curious what everyone’s using to browse it. Looking for recommendations for both mobile and desktop.

Mobile: Been testing a few apps.

  • Voyager’s been solid so far - clean interface and works well. Only downside is no push notifications.
  • Also tried Boost but it has some display issues - embedded icons don’t show up right and GIFs in comments are way too small.

Desktop: Still figuring out what to use here. What do you all prefer?

Any recommendations would be helpful. Thanks.

    Jeroba on mobile. I don’t browse on my desktop. I tried Voyager for a while at first, but then it broke and I switched and haven’t had any issues with Jeroba.

    I use Mlem on my iPhone 11. I don’t use social media on my pc. I haven’t tried any other apps, but I haven’t felt a need to either.

    Sync on my main tablet, because it has the best 2 column layout for my needs.

    Connect on my phone where 2 column isn’t really a big factor, with summit as an alternative on there because I never have decided which of the two I prefer.

    I don’t use lemmy on laptop/desktop because I dislike the experience via browser. It would be fine for passive scrolling I guess, but even with the various front end options, I run into more hassles than it’s worth when even the meh apps handle lemmy better and I just don’t need anything that could be gained via browser.

    I use Eternity on Android, which is almost exclusively how I use Lemmy. When I use on desktop, I use old Lemmy.

    PC. I’m just using the web front end, which is decent. It looks like nobody really has an alternative, which is okay, but I do wish I could switch to backup instances more gracefully when there’s downtime.
