Web app, specifically, or any apps?

I'm also familiar with these three (web) apps:

Might also also check out https://lemmyapps.com/ which has a good list that you can filter by platform/feature.

I use Alexandrite on my desktop and Voyager on my phone. Perfect experience for me.

[–] classybattery@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 days ago

ahh thanks, any apps!!

Why no one is using boost, is it so bad?

[–] Kobibi@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I use boost, no problems

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 days ago

Hasn't been updated in a while, and it has a few bugs.

!voyagerapp@lemmy.world and !summit@lemmy.world devs are more active

edit: i don't have any compatible devices but the format looks cool

[–] classybattery@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 days ago

i'm gonna try that

Don’t forget https://quiblr.com/

which I think is the only one that has a true algorithm.

I'm using Thunder (app), first one I tried and it's basically what I had with RedReader so I've never really tried anything else.

[–] classybattery@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 days ago

ahh, thanks so much!

[–] txtr@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Do you also have the issue with Thunder, that you can't see votes on any posts/comments?

[–] flamingos@feddit.uk 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Do you have 'Show Post/Comment scores' enabled in your account setting. (Click 'Account' at the bottom, then the cog icon in the top right).

[–] txtr@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 days ago

That's it. Now it works. Thanks so much!

[–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

I do not :o works just fine for me

[–] crimeschneck@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 days ago

Not an answer to your question, but my experience of browsing lemmy has improved after hiding all scores.

Connect is wonderful! Posting from that. I don't know if they have an iOS version but I'm on Android. Very much like RiF, feels familiar

[–] classybattery@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 days ago
