Just want to say thank you to Connect dev Kuro for making Connect for Lemmy. Amidst all this hype for Sync and Boost, Connect remains ad- and subscription-free without compromising quality. This app is bomb and I won't be veering off to competitors anytime soon. Bonus points for being Canadian too! 🍁 Thank you!

I thought I was going crazy. I downloaded Sync. It's fine, but I honestly prefer Connect still. Connect is just so damn good! It's smooth and set up great.

Connect was the first app I installed for Lemmy and I've seen no reason to try any others - it's amazing. I was excited for Artemis (for Kbin, Lemmy support due to be added) but Connect is so good I've been using Lemmy much more, even though I hate the web UI, and the functionality of Connect is beating Artemis currently.

This is a little off topic but I like Connect after 5 minutes of playing around with it... So... Is there a Mastodon browser that's equivalently good?

If like how Connect looks you might like Megalodon. It's a fork of the official Mastodon app with a number of usability improvements and such, I've found it to be a well-balanced app in terms of features and usability/design. I haven't used Fedilab, but I've seen people recommend it before and I'd say it's worth a shot if you like lots of configuration options.

Thanks, this is awesome! I was using Tusky before, but Megalodon looks a lot more modern to me.

I've used both a lot. Megalodon for a smooth polished app with plenty of features. Fedlilab for every possible feature you could imagine and then 12 more than that, but less polished. I'm sticking with megalodon for now

Fedilab is quite good, lots of customization features. You can get it from F-Droid.

I'm using Liftoff right now because I'm trying to restrict myself to open source apps as part of a personal challenge to contribute code to things I like, but I always steer people towards Connect as an option. It is at present, I think, the best lemmy app experience

[-] Bak@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah it's great. Thank you for your work

Hello!

Does connect work with Kbin as well? I know it's kind of different from Lemmy.

I will be sticking with Connect he didn't try to overcharge his users.

[-] Kylamon1@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

With connect can you block whole instances for example block all @lemmy.world?
