Hi, !android@lemdro.id community! It’s been exciting seeing the Lemmy apps ecosystem continue to evolve, with all sorts of options emerging. Whether you’re a seasoned resident of the Fediverse or a newcomer, we’d love to hear about your experiences and expectations for the future.
- Which Lemmy apps have you tried?
- Do you have any favourites? If so, what sets them apart from the others?
- Are there upcoming apps you’re looking forward to releasing?
- What other functionality would you like to see from a Lemmy app?
honestly the web app is enough for me until Sync arrives.
I’ve tried: Liftoff, WefWef, and Thunder.
Sticking with Liftoff for now as I like the UI more than WefWef while Thunder back gestures not working is a real deal breaker. Have found pros/cons of all of them and none has seemed perfect for me quite yet.
Waiting for Sync, as that was my Reddit app of choice.
I’ve got Connect and Liftoff installed and I can’t figure out how to view all my subscriptions in a feed in Connect. Am I just tired or is this a pending feature? Thanks in advance!
Also, when you swipe from the left you can see Frontpage, Local, and All. Select Frontpage. That will show you only the what you are subscribed to.
A swipe on the left side of the screen will reveal your subscriptions.
So far I’ve only tried Connect and Liftoff, with Connect being the better of the two.
However, being a serious Sync user for Reddit, once that app is ready for Lemmy, I’m sure there won’t be any other alternative.
I tried Jerboa and it was okay. I’m now using Connect and it is fantastic!
Using Jerboa atm
I’ve been using a few myself and keep going back to Jerboa. I’ll keep tooling around but that’s my pick so far as well.

I’m currently using wefwef because it’s the most polished one regarding UI, that I’ve found. The jerboa one didn’t let me sign in via feddit.de because of version mismatch.
But I’m very certain that I’ll switch to Sync for Lemmy once that’s out, as was a very long-time user of Sync for Reddit and it’s UI just was so clean.
I just discovered wefwef and love it.
Another Sync afficionado here - their “We officially don’t do Reddit anymore, look out for us on Lemmy!” banner July 1st is how I got here!
Welcome on board!
Damn! A few days ago there was only jeroba. So many now! I really liked wefwef.
Am looking forward to the boost port. That will do it for me.
It’s pretty exciting!
On Jerboa. Probably need to give connect a shot at some point just to experience it. But I’ll almost certainly switch to Boost once it drops. Absolutely hooked on that for reddit for many years and it’s such an awesome client I’m sure it’s dev, Ruben Mayayo, will do no less for Lemmy.
I fell to my knees in a Walmart when Boost for Lemmy was finally announced. Donate to Ruben here:
I’m making a web app at the moment for personal use. So far, you can scroll posts, sort, filter, upvote, downvote, view one comment page, view a user’s posts, view a community’s posts, subscribe / block users and communities… and that’s about it
Ironically, since it doesn’t have the blur NSFW post feature yet, it’s a much better client for browsing NSFW communities than established clients :D
Absolutely not ready for prime time yet; there’s no deployment, you have to build it from source and it you can’t even comment. https://github.com/NatoBoram/Leanish
Nice, I look forward to seeing how it comes along! Let me know when it’s more functional and I can also add it to our sticky post.
I have something: https://natoboram.github.io/Leanish/lemmy.world/c/leanish@lemmy.world
There’s no Android build yet since it’s easier to just focus on features first and deployment later, but I do plan on having a SSR build, a PWA build and an Android build.
Infinity and Dawn for Everything now have early support for Lemmy. See here.
Connect is currently updating so rapidly that it might remain on my phone even after Sync, Boost, and Artemis launch.
