I am very new to Lemmy, and I am using the Eternity app. But I am wondering which one you guys are using, and maybe there are better one’s than Eternity without me knowing

      Me too. Voyager is a fine name but there was something dumb/charming about the name Wefwef.

    Boost. I used it on Reddit, continued to use it through the mod workaround, switched to Boost for Lemmy after they shut that down yesterday, and now here I am.

      Same, boost layout is just so clean. Sad I couldn’t keep my ad free existence from the other app but guy deserves to be paid.

      I also agree with Boost. I was super bummed when it got shut down. It actually gave me the kick to join Lemmy.

      I also use Boost.

      The only thing I think it’s missing is a seamless way to open other instances’ homepage.

      Same, but you can repatch boost for reddit to work again. Check the boost Lemmy sub, it has a pretty big post on it.

    I have tried almost all clients on Android.

    Best In my opinion:

    1. Thunder
    2. Jerboa
    3. Raccoon for Lemmy
    4. Voyager

    To me thunder has the best UI and UX overall, even though I prefers the “card view” feed from Raccoon and some functions of Jerboa.

      Did you rank these in a particular order, or is it just four that you like?

      I used Jerboa when I first transitioned from Reddit, but eventually someone recommended Voyager because it is similar to the RiF app I used to use. I like the interface of Voyager more than Jerboa, and I’ve been using it for a while, but I’m still open to checking out other apps.

        In preferred order.

        Jerboa has everything you might need related to Lemmy functions, as it is the native app developed by the same Lemmy authors. But I feel the interface is not as good as Thunder’s. And as for Voyager, I dislike the interface because is reminiscent of old iPhone interfaces (even though you can change it something similar to Android). And as far as I remember Thunder’s post’s comments view is better for me. In my opinion Thunder has the better combination of Function, UI and UX.

      Do you use thunder on iPad? How do you exit from a video link, eg youtube? There is no back or X or gesture.

        I would suppose with the same gestures as the image ones but since you mention is not that then I would assume it could work with native iOS gestures? I’m sorry, do not own any Apple devices. I suggest asking on Thunder’s community or making an issue on Github.

    I like and use Thunder. It’s cross platform on iOS and Android so I get the same consistent interface from my iPad and my android phone.

      That’s what I use, too. I think most of what makes Boost so great is that the developer initially made it for Reddit, so they put a lot of work into the user experience and it runs great. Plus since I primarily used it for Reddit, it feels very familiar to use it for Lemmy.

    Jerboa. Of the ones I have tried, it feels the most like Baconreader (RIP) to me.

    Eternity is a solid one, was my main for quite some time until I used Voyager while waiting for Eternity to to update to work with the latest Lemmy at the time, and ended up sticking with Voyager.

    I do miss the user avatars though, voyager doesn’t have those.

    Eternity

    Infinity was my favorite Reddit app and I saw that Eternity existed, so I switched to it the moment it releasedits first alpha. I see no reason to use anything else unless it breaks and is no longer maintained.
