Hi fellow sync-ers,

Having joined Lemmy recently, I have been having a ton of fun. However accessing Lemmy through my mobile browser has been an awful experience, similar to my past Reddit experience till I found Sync.

I’m not sure how much longer I can tolerate the browser experience, and am hesitating jumping on a app. Where’s your head at about this?

Edit (4 days later)

I’ve been on Connect and has been 8/10 so far. Gonna dual use with liftoff after seeing the comments.

I did a 5 minute ctr+F to see which were the most popular apps/ interfaces. Not sorted by pos/neg, just mentions.

  • wefwef/ voyager - 46
  • connect - 43
  • Liftoff - 33
  • Jerboa - 23
  • Thunder - 16
  • Firefox - 13
  • Thunder - 16
  • Old.lemmy - 5
  • Alexandrite - 4
  • Vivaldi - 2

      Same here since it’s the closest we have to Sync at the moment. It also lets me block entire instances, which is great since Lemmy itself doesn’t have this feature yet.

    Voyager (former wefwef) quickly turned out the best. Good updates every day just made the experience the best. Go to their webpage from your browser of choice and install it from there.

    I tried quite a few: Jerboa, wefwef, Thunder, Liftoff, browser (Brave)

    Ultimately chose Connect which functions great and has some good customizations I appreciate

    Patiently waiting for Sync

    For now I am using connect for lemmy. Which is great! And grown in Canada.

    Connect for the time being, its not bad at all, I’ll feel a little bad leaving it for Sync

    On mobile, I’m using the Voyager app, which lemmy.world has installed as an alternative front end. Seems to work great.

    On desktop, I’m using the amazing Alexandrite UI (https://alexandrite.app/) which solves all of my interface annoyances with the regular Lemmy UI (infinite scroll, opening posts without losing place in the feed, easily accessible communities list).

    I love how flexible Lemmy is proving with its UI options… there really does seem to be something for everyone!

        (dev here) I had an idea for how I’d build a profile switcher recently, it’s something I want to implement soon.
