I’m currently on Connect for Lemmy and I mostly like it but it’s buggy (new app so I’ll be forgiving - but once you search for something you can’t back out unless you close the app). Summit is fine but there’s no way to see your profile and jerboa doesn’t seem to have a way to log in.

I know it’s early days but are there any other well rounded apps I should try?

Edit: I’m a dummy, in Jerboa there is a down Caret next to “anonymous” at the top on the slide out menu. That’s how you log in

    Currently using wefwef.app

    The UI is clean and beautiful. I’ve tried other apps but I don’t like how most of it looks

    I bounce between the web and Jerboa at the moment.

    I’m logged in with Jerboa though, what happens when you try?

      How do you even log in? I haven’t found an intuitive way to do that. It’s very possible I’m a dummy and missing something that just isn’t obvious to me.

        Hamburger menu in the top left, then click on whatever it says in the new top left (I’m already logged in so it currently shows my username). I think it says anonymous?

    If I’m on my phone I just browse within Firefox. 98% of my browsing is through Firefox on my desktop PC. Both methods are fine and I haven’t really ran into issues.

    I use Jerboa. It was unstable at first, but it seems to work great since Beehaw got updated to the newer version of Lemmy.

    I use Jeroba, as it feel the most polished for me. In other apps I had some errors and really noticable sync problem, as I didnt see my comments and stuff, but they were indeed posted

    I’ve tried Jerboa (which was super crashy on my phone for some reason) and right now I’m using wefwef.app, which is more stable but still isn’t quite what I wanted, as a former BaconReader person. For one thing, when I try sorting things in different ways (like by “new” or by “hot”) it seems to stick to the exact posts I was just looking at.

    I’ll be watching this comment thread with interest.

      I’m using Jerboa and it works great, according to a lower comment they also used to have issues but don’t anymore, maybe give it another shot 👍🙂

    Has anyone found an app that “slides” between posts (swipe left and right to goto next/previous post)? Baconit and Slide has this feature and I miss it.

    I jump between a few at the moment.

    I think Thunder could be good but it lacks a bit of the features. Wefwef is more developed and I really like how it feels. Ultimately, I use the Beehaw PWA quite a bit because I need to handle mod reports and applications to Beehaw.

    I alternate between Liftoff and Jerboa, currently liking the Liftoff UX a bit better.

      Have you found a way to load up a specific community without having a post from that community to navigate from? Like, I want to do the Connect version of typing “reddit.com/r/Ooer” in my URL. It’s been driving me crazy; I ended up going back to Jerboa because of this one thing.

    I’m currently preferring either the mobile web or Liftoff. Liftoff has really surprised me with how slick and easy it’s been to jump onto. I still have Jerboa on my phone to see how it progresses over time.

    I’m using Memmy on iOS. It’s a little buggy here and there and there are some features that I would like to see, but I figure most of these apps are still in the early stages and will be developed more.

    Anyone have any suggestions for iOS apps that I should try?

      I’ve been using Mlem for the last week or so. It might still be in test flight but it’s been pretty good so far.
