Another one using Thunder here.
Purely because it looks and works a lot like Relay for Reddit. Which is the only app that made Reddit usable for me.

Iβm really liking Memmy on iOS. It takes some inspiration from Apollo.
Check out the community lemmyapps (not sure how to link yet), it has them all listed. I personally like Connect.
I am using mlem for iOS. I havenβt tried anything else yet though. (Also, mlem is still in testflight beta, but I think it will be on the app store soon)
I love to use thunder as my main lemmy client it's available for Android and iOS Both
Have tried all of the iOS ones, and Beans is by far the best!
Beans is tied for second for me. It has the smoothest scrolling but lacks some features of Memmy. I wish it wasnβt $30 (going up to$50 next week) for lifetime though. Iβd buy it for $10, maybe $15, even as a second app, but $30/$50 is too steep provided Memmy is free and more future rich, as well as Voyager.
If you like smoothness and swipieness then you need to try Summit (Android).
It doesn't provide much value if you want to also moderate communities and all. It can a clean experience but it does lack a lot of basic features that are available on the web versions of any instances.
Thunder works for my as a android user. Early days though
Sssw
I'm equally and technically impressed by both Memmy and Avelon, cosmetically impressed more by Avelon (Memmy is also gorgeous), and emotionally more attached to Memmy since it was the first true native Apollo-like Lemmy adaptation and dev is super on-the-ball. Not that Avelon's is not I just can't speak to it since I haven't felt the need in my admittedly-lesser use of it compared to Memmy.
Both amazing apps and you really can't go wrong with either. I do really like Avelon's forced collapsing of all top-level comments' child comments which makes it easier to navigate the various apects people are commenting on at the top level and work your way down to more specific discssion based on your filtering of which top level comments address that which is of immediate interest to the specific readers' needs or preferred line of inquiry
memmy is awesome
