Favorite Lemmy Client
(lemmy.world)
Sync all the way.
Sync! It's what I used on Reddit, and having it here made switching platforms so much smoother.

Voyager…formerly wefwef.
It has all platforms - Web, PWA, iOS and Android.
It is free and open source. No tracking and no ads.

Boost (the best social app ever) & Jerboa (simple, lightweight alternative).
Boost gang! 🚀🚀
I can't even begin to describe how amazing Boost is. It's the only android Reddit app that I will acknowledge, and it's the only client that got me into Lemmy.
Has to be Boost.

Boost
Sync
Boost!
Memmy (on iOS).
Astoundingly good for solo effort at sub v1.0.
Yeah. It’s my favorite at the moment, but it doesn’t seem well maintained
The github is active again! Looks like the dev is back from their break
I tried many waiting for Sync release on Lemmy, but nothing felt as complete, it's just far and away the best IMHO.
Jerboa
On Android, former Relay for Reddit user.
Right now I have SEVEN lemmy apps on my home screen as I figure out which I like best. So far I keep going back to Sync the most.
Boost's animations suck. It takes too long to show the post list after swiping away an image and the whole screen goes black, it's a bit jarring.
Liftoff works well but it's ugly.
Jerboa isn't very customizable and the post list doesn't feel dense enough.
Voyager literally does not tell you what instance the community you're viewing is on.
I haven't touched Thunder in a while but I see they've updated quite a bit with a lot more customization. I remember older versions being nice, so I'll give it a try again.
Connect is about the same as Liftoff, works well but kinda ugly. Admittedly not as ugly though.
That issue with Boost may be device dependent. It is only a split second of black for me on an S23. But, i agree it should just be better no matter the device.
For Voyager, there is a setting to show the instance.

Nothing comes close to Sync Ultra. It's software designed by the Internet gods themselves aka @ljdawson.
With the highest one time payment for ad removal and a subscription service for extra features. No thanks, but enjoy it please.

Boost can display new comments in a different color. I don't know how I lived without that feature for so long. Any other apps that can do that?
Last time I used Connect and Voyager (a few weeks ago) they couldn't do that. They were nice otherwise, but Boost seems to do everything they do and more.
Boost is the reason I'm contributing to this community.

Eternity, I came from infinity, so it's the only choice for me
Jerboa
tried Jerboa at first but it was extremely choppy. Now I use Sync and it's smooth af
Eternity. Previously Liftoff.
I tried a couple, but I always go back to just using the web interface through Firefox. It has all the features I need, no extra ads, trackers or permissions, and is pretty comfortable to use. Then again, I don't moderate any communities and I'm not a very prolific poster, so my needs are pretty basic.
Anything that doesn’t make you pay to remove ads. That files in the face of what lemmy is about.

It was Memmy for a long time but the developer seems to be on break with development and the app has some irritating bugs.
At the moment using Avelon and it’s really good and still on development.

Connect is the closest to Relay which was my favourite Reddit app. It also doesn't have ads.
Alexandrite for desktop, bean for iOS and Boost for Android
Mlem!
Every now and then a post with a question like this pops up on lemmy and I wonder if the Sync company has anything to do with it, because Sync always gets to be the most mentioned answer. It is beyond me why anyone would use an app that pushes ads on you while browsing content from a website that doesn't have any...
I use it, I'm not paid to say this.
ljdawson and rmayayo did great work on their apps, and I purchased both of their apps.
Making software is not easy. I'm a software developer, too. I'm very happy that there is a paid version without ads, I definitely wouldn't use them if I had to use the version with ads.
In my experience, they both provide superior experiences that are both familiar to people and well integrated into Android, especially Sync. Boost has more features however.
If you're looking for a FOSS app, Connect is the next best thing IMO.
