What client do Android users use for Lemmy these days? I’ve been using Jerboa from the start but it’s a bit basic and lacks any good search functionality. So I want to try some others. What do other Android users recommend?
Things I like about Jerboa:
- It just works. It’s pretty simple.
- It has actual private browsing in app. You never have to leave the app and it knows how to never save your history.
- It can do the above even when setting your main browser to Firefox (so as blocking works even in open links in app).
Things I don’t like about Jerboa:
- Text entry is oftentimes buggy.
- Lack of any decent search for communities or in threads.
- No draft capability.
Boost
Interstellar
Voyager
same. only because it was the only one i could remember the name of when i was setting up the ‘mini tablet’ (which is just someone’s old phone. has no sim or service). it’s an old and slow phone, so it doesn’t get used often. i’d much rather be on a desktop.
Am I the only one using Connect?
Am I out of touch?
No, it’s the lemmings who are wrong.
I’m with you. Connect is great
Reddit is Fun into Connect. Never looked back.

Sync for Lemmy
Sync, until it dies.
Jerboa was the smallest one I could find on F-Droid. The lack of post search sucksssss but that’s probably a sign that I should get home and onto my computer regardless.
I tried Voyager and Interstellar but Blorp for whatever reason was the only one with a UI that felt right to me.

Firefox based browser and Jerboa
Firefox
I just use the web UI. It scales really well on mobile.
Im using my computer
I just access it via the Firefox browser. Mostly because I’m tired of everything wanting to have its own app which turns out to just be a more colourful container to load the webpage (my tinfoil hat hypothesis is that they do it to bypass adblocks). And the other reason is that I couldn’t find anything I need to do on Lemmy that I’m not just as able to do from the browser.
I tried a bunch and settled on Voyager. I also liked Thunder.
Same, I tried them all and Voyager was my favourite
It’s also nice to recommend because it’s on iOS too
