I'm reading this on Boost (once off payment) and no ads...
I just use my mobile browser (firefox for android) to view it.
Personally I like Connect even though it's not FOSS because it's layout is similar to RiF.
Why would you need an app when an account settings page and a web interface for posts exist? What need is that combination not meeting for you?
Yup, lemmy works fine in a browser.
Also basically no apps support mod and admin actions or do it weird.
I'll say that DMs could be a bit better in the browser, but otherwise it's fine.
Connect does not have ads
I have Boost, but I haven't seen any ads like that before. The main one I use is Jerboa though.
Idk, I've tried a few but still like Boost; just can't get into Jerboa or Liftoff, which I tried. It's mostly just their ad network being meh
though I mostly just get crappy fake gameplay ads, and not enough to bother me. I'm not even sure if they're targeting me, cause if they are, they're pretty bad at it.
Unfortunately I'm sure the app developer doesn't get much say, virtually all mobile app networks are cancer.
No ads whatsoever on voyager. Maybe give that a shot?
Sync, but it still has ads. Honestly just get an adblocker, it's free.
I paid $3.49 to support the developers and the ads go away as a bonus.
Wefwef. It's so normal.
I take it schools aren't teaching tech literacy. We wouldn't want the kids to get in the way of our overlord marketing agencies.
I wonder if they ever really have? When I was in school they taught you how to use a computer, but not what the computer was doing or how it worked.
I'm not too connected to the educational sector anymore but anecdotally it seems like becoming tech literate has a growing stigma (it's always had a stigma). Happily ignoring what it's doing while it's actively abusing you.
I use the webpage as a webapp. It's adless.
Lemmy website does provide official PWA app.
On iOS: Safari > Lemmy website > Hit share button > Add to home screen. On android, I assume steps will be similar.
I wholeheartedly recommend PWA app as such is published by the publisher of website itself, and I don’t need to download it either from official or 3rd party store.
In case you don’t know, PWA is basically a web app, running using your browser engine, which has almost same look-n-feel of native app.
