I really like it, it was my Reddit app for years so it was easy to stay with
Yeah it was my Reddit app too. But when I switched over to Lemmy, there were a lot of initial issues with the app, and the dev would vanish for months before responding to complaints.
He was very reactive when he came back, addressing every issue people pinged him on. But then he'd just be gone again and any further issues were stuck until he decided to return.
I remember that being a problem I had with his Lemmy app in the beginning. I specifically remember webm files didn't load at all, until I pinged him right before he pushed an update and he added it to his patch. But then his patch broke a few other things and nobody could reach him for another 3 months.
I still can't remember what the final straw was for me, but I had an ongoing issue that had no resolution until the dev decided to show his face again and I decided that was it. I needed an app with a more reactive developer.
I recommend Connect to everyone. Free, no ads at all, Canadian developer who is super active and has responded to every issue I've raised right away and usually fixed it by the next day, tons of customization options, all around the best Lemmy app I've used for a number of different reasons.
