+1 for Voyager from me

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

Top voted this is what I'm going with

[–] kingofras@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Voyager but the lack of the language field is not great. Posting with Voyager gets you less reach

[–] VOG@chatgptjailbreak.tech 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I’m brand new to Lemmy and grabbed voyager to get started, can you elaborate? I’d be grateful as i’m still a noob.

[–] kingofras@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The app still doesn’t support the localisation needed to get optimal discovery on Lemmy. Lemmy has a language field for each post which Voyager leaves blank. Lots of users have a setting “only show me posts in English” which then filters out posts where the language is set to It’s been a “feature request” that’s been open for years.

[–] VOG@chatgptjailbreak.tech 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Aha, thanks for clarifying!

[–] kingofras@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Welcome aboard, good to have you

Started on Jeroba, but Thunder just felt more intuitive.

Summit and Interstellar are my two favorite's right now.

[–] Vegan_Joe@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I second Summit.

I still have Sync because I transitioned with it from Reddit, but Summit is now my daily driver.

Boost (Android)

It was the best app for Reddit before. Now it's the best app for Lemmy.

Voyager. Don't remember why I stuck to this one, but the others I tried lacked some features I wanted.

[–] AstroLightz@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I like it because it is pretty much the Lemmy successor to Apollo for Reddit.

Connect. With Voyager as comparison.

[–] MidsizedSedan@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I'm using Jerboa, even though I saw what Blorp is like, and I'm preparing g to switch (just used to Jerboa UI)

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago (12 children)

Blorp dev here. We’d love to have you! Let me know if there is anything preventing you from switching that I can improve.

Boost. Only problem I have is videos often only play in thumbnail and load infinitely when clicked on. Not that important for me though.

With Jerboa and Voyager there were a lot of small problems that just made the experience worse.

Voyager, but I wish I could see other people's modlogs, they sound funny

Thunder. Cross-platform and it has a very nice uncluttered UI. Works with piefed too.

[–] PumpkinSkink@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

I had to check, but voyager, evidently.

[–] slackarr@piefed.ca 8 points 2 months ago

interstellar but im on piefed

[–] HatchetHaro@pawb.social 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I use Boost. Not open-source, but the ads are non-intrusive to me and it just feels like home.

[–] winkerjadams@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 months ago

I just paid the $5 or whatever. Felt right to support the dev after using it on reddit for so long

[–] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Connect, but a recent update to the UI is quite annoying. Some text is quite small but not all the time, they added a giant banner at the top. It was fine before.

[–] northernlights@lemmy.today 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Jerboa. I find the UI very nice. Right around amount of info and density (i hate excessive padding), fully customizable colors, not 1 glitch

Firefox on mobile.

[–] FarrellPerks@feddit.uk 6 points 2 months ago

Boost and also sometimes Voyager, both are really well polished.
