I use primarily Connect, but I'll switch to Thunder from time to time.
theres so many lemmy clients i guess thats one of the benefits of lemmy being licensed under agpl and has a free api
Lemmy UI and Jerboa seem to work well for me and they are both open-source.
Eternity is one my favorite client
Sync on my phone and Photon on desktop.
Curious what sync users find about it worth paying for above say Jerboa or whatever? Would appreciate comments.
I used sync on Reddit and was kinda sad to see the dev didn't grandfather people into Sync for Lemmy - especially given the high price of sync and the reuse of work that I'd already paid for. Obviously the guy should get paid, but I think £18 is excessive, especially for existing users.
Actually I like the very fact that it is paid. Supporting the developer, and some sort of accountability.
Also, after trying connect, liftoff, jerboa (all perfectly good apps), etc I find that sync is most smooth and customizable.
I got close to a decade off a $5 purchase. (Or however much it was) I can't think of a single other thing I've used daily for that long that cost so little. $20 now is no biggie to pay for a major update to switch to lemmy.
I didn't realise how much I missed image peek (long press a post to popup the thumbnail image) until I switched back from jerboa to sync when it first came out. Especially since I mostly seem to be reading webcomics.
I don't comment much, but sync's draft feature feels very solid.
Otherwise I did feel jerboa was good and would have gotten used to it.
I never used sync on reddit (was on boost) The dark overlay feature is absolutely amazing for me
Personally I don't pay for ultra and don't really notice the ads
I'm using a mix of Sync and Eternity. I was using Infinity for Reddit before the migration.
Because Sync came first, it's still my default way to navigate Lemmy but Eternity is slowly growing on me. I prefer to alternate between a few apps to stay up to date on the alternatives, and to ensure I don't become dependant on a single app/interface.
I've also tested a few times Photon, great web UI which can be installed as a PWA.
Alexandrite & Sync
I was previously using Memmy and it’s good, but it hasn’t been updated for a while. I’m giving Avelon a try and it is nice so far.
I've found Summit the best for me, personally, on Android. I've been able to configure it closest to how I used RIF which is what I wanted.
I use Connect. Ive not had any issues.
Im not a power user either though, so maybe theres some features not here, you may want. No idea
But theres custom themes. You can pick your own colors for the different elements.
Hell yeah, 30% sync users. I've always thought Sync was the best reddit client, and now it's the best Lemmy client.
I’m glad to see Voyager so high. I was hooked on Memmy for a while, even though I had been trying wefwef and a few other interfaces occasionally. But now the app version of Voyager is just about perfect for me.
after trying a few, Eternity was the first one that worked without errors on my older Android phone. i enjoyed using Infinity previously and i'm glad it was repurposed
I access Lemmy through the browser all the time. The experience is solid and consistent across devices and I need access to both mod and (occasionally) admin tools.
