Love Memmy but started using wefwef and have started to prefer that. Feels 100% like Apollo to me.

Wefwef will be called Voyager as of the next version (so following the current 0.17).
Oh thank god
I was having some issues with wefwef with things like saving posts but that seems to be fixed now, which is good!
It does feel exactly like Apollo which is why I've been using it haha
I also find it pretty cool, being a web app!
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !mlemapp@lemmy.ml
Liftoff on Android works pretty well.
Decided to try liftoff and so far I'm liking it. Might have to try out a few others to see how they compare though
I second Liftoff, though I'm honestly just using it while I wait for Boost to get its Lemmy port. It's pretty fully-featured and I haven't had any technical issues with it.
Only gripe really is that the UI is a little obtuse in some very specific areas.
Liftoff on Android and Memmy on my iPad. These are close to the experiences of Sync and Apollo.
On Android, so don't have access to some of the popular iOS ones.
Right now, I'm switching around between web, Jerboa, and Thunder. Liftoff is great as well, but I'm not really vibing with it as much as the others.
Thunder is sleek, but missing some features that Jerboa and Liftoff have.
Jerboa currently feels like the one which is most "feature-rich", but it doesn't like my keyboard (OpenBoard) for some reason. It's an open issue on their GitHub, but don't know if there will be a fix anytime soon.(*)
To be fair, none really feel like "home" yet. They feel like a stopgap until something that works better for me comes around.
As much as I don't like using closed source stuff, considering I'd been using Sync for almost a decade until it shut down, I'll probably give that a shot regardless, because I fully trust the dev (even if I had minor disagreements with some design choices here and there).
Hopefully, I'll find myself feeling more comfortable once that has taken some time to grow.
Considering I was always on the Sync beta branch, I might as well test it out early if I can.
(*) I'm actually hoping OpenBoard gets a proper fork soon because its devs have disappeared and it's got PRs which have been waiting to be merged for ages. Someone threw together a quick fork merging the major PRs a few days ago and I need to test it. Maybe that'll fix my keyboard issue with Jerboa, I don't know. Still, the user who forked it has been pretty clear that they're not sure if they can maintain a separate project longterm, so we'll have to see if anything happens there.
Jerboa [...] doesn’t like my keyboard (OpenBoard) for some reason.
Jerboa's text editing is horribly broken even with the stock LineageOS (Android) keyboard. I don't know what nonsense it's doing, but it's not just you.
I began using Mlem and later also tested out Memmy. A few weeks ago, I found out that TestFlight could not download the newer versions of Mlem, as my iPhone 7 cannot be updated to the latest iOS. Since then, I have been using Memmy.
Mlem and Memmy for me, Memmy is pulling ahead lately for me
Memmy won’t upvote comments for me. Does it work for you?
Yes, go to your user profile, edit account > tap the password field and then tap save. That will force the app to re-auth you and your feed and votes should resume working.
Took me a little bit to nail that issue down
Connect at the moment. I plan on switching to Boost when it's available, but Connect has been really good so far!
+1 for connect, I was originally on Jerboa but it crashed so dang often. I like that switching accounts is easy, makes it a breeze to have my general interests Beehaw account and my niche interests account and swap between them
I flip between a Progressive Web App, Thunder, Jerboa, and Liftoff on Mobile (Android). I've been spending most of my time in Thunder, but each method is missing just a couple features that others cover which are occasionally useful.
You should try Connect. It's the best one for me, until Sync for Lemmy drops.
I use the standard PWA. It really needs infinite scroll because I constantly flip to the next page and see the same several posts again.
Edit: wefwef has infinite scroll and helped me find subs similar to what I had on Reddit. It wins for now, though it's not quite there for what I had with RiF
Been using Memmy and it’s pretty nice so far.
Connect for Lemmy on Android. It looks nice and has clickable usernames/community names in feeds, a good community search function, keyword-based post blocking, and community/user/instance blocking.
How are you all using apps without issue? I have Connect, Liftoff and Jerboa, and with all of them I can't seem to comment. I get messages that I need to log-in, or that my votes don't register, or some crazy code (as in coder) that covers my entire screen. This doesn't happen with Lemm.ee, only Beehaw. It's honestly super frustrating and has hampered my engagement within Beehaw.
I use Firefox Nightly Android with Stylus alongside this userstyle I made: https://userstyles.world/style/10233/zettajon-1440p-and-darkmode-supported-lemmy
Jerboa! Picked that since it's from the Lemmy devs.
I made my own app at Slemmy!
Thanks to the CORS PR that I made to upstream Lemmy, all web clients should now be a lot easier to maintain, so I'm resuming work on mine as well!
Just the default browser that comes with my phone!
Jerboa worked well for me up until the server shut down yesterday. I like the layout and it's easy to use. I still keep the desktop version bookmarked so using that right now.
Try logging out and logging into Jerboa. The session invalidation done as a precaution made the app go a little awry.
It worked! Thank you!
