Thunder has been making me feel right at home relative to Reddit, personally! !thunder_app@lemmy.world

I do the Voyager. Can't remember how I landed on it, but it works good

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 month ago

In my heart it's still wefwef, complete with the little rainbow background lemmy.

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 10 points 1 month ago

I only remember switching to Voyager because I was having problems with images and other such things loading when I was using Jerboa when I first jumped ship to Lemmy.

Thunder has become my main, has the least issues for me, been meaning to customize arctic since its a bit quicker being native. Thunder will sometimes take a bit to post a comment.

Firefox on all the platforms I use.

[–] Sergio@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 month ago

Same! "open in new tab", history, and bookmarking are the big winners for me. I have Jerboa just to see what things look like on another platform tho.

[–] MurrayL@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Voyager, because it was the most mature and feature complete app available when I left Reddit and I don’t fancy switching again without good reason.

It was a bit of a learning curve initially, coming from RiF, but I’m used to it now and rarely encounter any issues.

I actually still use Boost for Reddit because it's so incredible and unbeatable (especially for moderating), but I decided to lean more open-source otherwise.

Agree, and I have tested a bunch of them so far. It's just so clean!

[–] PlzGivHugs@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I use Boost. I tried a few others, and wanted to pick an open source option, but I never found one with UI I was satisfied with.

[–] Flagstaff@programming.dev 4 points 1 month ago

Just saying, I'm a huge Boost fan (donated, even) and still use its Reddit app to this day. Thunder is marvelous.

Voyager app in Android, vger.app on my laptop

[–] Flagstaff@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

Huh, didn't know it has a web platform! Thanks for sharing.

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 month ago

Voyager on iOS, Firefox on PC

[–] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Surprised I'm the first to say Eternity

[–] Flagstaff@programming.dev 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

@tal@lemmy.today mentioned it, so you're the 2nd.

I just prefer to use something recent if possible; Eternity was last updated in August versus Thunder, just this month, in F-Droid. It looks probably fine, though.

I’m also in voyager.

[–] doctortofu@reddthat.com 5 points 1 month ago

Just the web interface for me - it does everything I want, so I have an instance of Firefox on my phone dedicated to social media, with always open tabs for Lemmy, Discuit, Tildes and Pixelfed.

[–] Pixelotes@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Connect here. I like how It feels.

[–] tal@lemmy.today 4 points 1 month ago

The standard Lemmy Web UI on desktop. Eternity on Android.

Firefox in Linux.

Old reddit/mlmym on desktop and Sync on Android for me.

Was using connect for nearly two years but more and more issues are being introduced and old ones not solved despite a few updates this last month. So currently I have moved over to Voyager, I prefer the way connect is laid out etc but Voyager actually works and as a bonus I can moderate from it.

[–] jeena@piefed.jeena.net 4 points 1 month ago

PieFed in Firefox on the desktop and Chrome on Android, because this way I can make it full screen there.

[–] ShittyBeatlesFCPres@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I tried a few and settled on Voyager. I like it a lot.

[–] mesamunefire@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

It's so cool to see so many different ways to experience Lemmy.

[–] Kng@feddit.rocks 3 points 1 month ago

Eternity (infinity for Lemmy)

[–] electric@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Wish I could have used Thunder but it didn't support older phones (think it was related to something about a certificate with Flutter???). I just use Connect now and customized it to be how Baconreader was for me. Been a great app so far.
