The one I’m using is becoming so buggy to the point of being unusable. It was never really great tbh, what are most people using?

As an added question, are bookmarks associated with the lemmy account or the app?

Edit: I’m on android, currently using Jerboa.

      I just started using it the other day. Getting used to the gestures. Seems fine. Under active development so hopefully has a bright future.

      I tried switching from Jerboa to Voyager, but I have the weirdst issue with Voyager. I use the back button at the bottom of my phone to go back from posts to the main list. Unfortunately, after using RIF for so long, or SOMETHING, I can’t kick this habit where I press back too many times and the app closes, and I lose my place, and have to re-open and continue scrolling from the top. Maddening, and I don’t know how to fix it. v.v

    Boost. One-time cheap payment to get rid of ads. No subscription like Sync (which is otherwise also a great app; it was not subscription based when it was available for Reddit).

      I use Sync and don’t pay anything. It’s brilliant and the ads are basically invisible and rare.

      Literally was the best Reddit app and it is a fantastic port to Lemmy.

      You can choose to pay the dev if you want to. I haven’t yet, but likely will if I spend more time here.

      Sync has a one time payment to get rid of ads as well. The subscription is for cloud services, if you want that stuff. I didn’t, so all I paid for was to remove ads.

            Yeah that’s what made me jump ship to Boost - I sincerely doubt that even if I used Sync for ten years, the value of the ad impressions I give would be worth A$35. I can basically buy a huge number of high-quality games for that amount.

    I use Voyager. It gets updates fast but it looks like an iOS app. I rarely encounter any bugs here. Voyager also has mark read on scroll and disabling infinite scrolling (add a Load page 2 button) Sync is also good, it deals great with vertically long images and is a native app.

    Sync for Lemmy

    Sync was my go-to Reddit app for nearly 9 years.

    It does have ads, but with a one time purchase you can get rid of them. I’ve paid that and then I also plan on getting the subscription in the future for additional features.

    The price is definitely a bit on the higher side, but I’m happy to support the development of the app I left Reddit for.

    If you are able to, please support the apps and Lemmy instances you use.

      Sync is the reason I’m here. For me, Sync was Reddit, and now, Sync is Lemmy.

      Much like with Reddit years ago, with great apps like BaconReader and RIF, Lemmy is benefiting from having a huge choice of apps. Definitely try them all, and support the ones you like.

    The absolute bare minimum is to show text as it was written. Most of the apps don’t even deal with formatting post correctly, so I am happy to stick with a browser.

    If your app of choice does not display the following correctly, let the devs know via a bug report

    Bold = Bold v. normal.
    Italic = Italic v. normal.
    Superscript = SuperScript v. normal.
    Subscript = Subscript v. normal.
    Strike-through = Strike-through v. normal.

      I just switched from Liftoff because it hasn’t received an update in 6 months and is now breaking. As of last week, it no longer opens the subbed list for me.

      I tried Voyager and Connect. It looks like I may be sticking with Connect, as I’m way happier with how smooth it is and the fact that it’s not harvesting my data like some of the more popular browsers.

    Was super excited for Boost as I was a paid user

    Then it came out and was missing many of the features of Connect

    Came back to Connect and haven’t looked back

      I’m also on Connect. Despite the fact that developer occasionally is a bit slow, I found nothing better. It was annoying to be locked out of my main server when they silently upgraded to 0.19 and Connect dev did not add support for it for several weeks.

    For iOS, I’ve been testing Arctic, Avelon, Bean, Lemma, Memmy, and Mlem. All good, but none seem better or more reliable than Voyager (wefwef).

    My rankings based on personal experience and nothing else:

    1. Boost
    2. Liftoff
    3. Thunder
    4. Connect
    5. Lemmotif
    6. Jerboa

    I know Lemmy has a general preference for FOSS but Boost just feels like home, and the amount of ads on the free version is tolerable to me.
