I seem to be using WefWef (just renamed "Voyager") and Liftoff the most.

A big fan of Sync, tho, so we'll see where we end up when that arrives.

I love it. Some things are a bit akward ui wise but it's smooth, fast and doesn't heat up my oneplus one

It's pretty nice, definitely prettier than jerboa. I still haven't found an app that will let me swipe between post comment sections like Joey (for reddit) could. Heck, even the official reddit app could do it, it's like the only feature it had that all of the 3rd party apps don't. Once I find an app that can do that, I'll probably stick with it

I don't like the way it has a different color than the status bar. Looks jarring and incomplete.

This is awesome work. I wish posts had a thumbnail on the left or right to give you a snippet of the topic similar to the RIF app. I'd not then it mainly feels like a lot of words and read which is not horrible but the experience is slightly lessened and cluttered.

I'd like the ability to open links with my browser of choice instead of the default in-app browser.

It is already in Liftoff 0.10.7. General settings section.

It's 2nd best to wefwef.app. The only thing wefwef needs is a grey theme, then it would be perfect. Also it's web based and no dedicated app. But the PWA app is quite good.

I couldn't get it installed. It kept telling me "app not purchased", but only gives me an option to install. It looks promising, though.

I’m a Mlem guy myself. I like a well designed and native (Swift on Apple platforms) UI. I’ve been absolutely loving it! I can’t say I used Liftoff for very long when I was testing as I ruled it out due to its non native UI relativity quickly haha. But as far as apps go, it looked alright. Just not for me. It sounds like there are many out there loving it (Liftoff)!

I like Liftoff but the one thing that stops me from using it more is the dark theme is still a bit too light. Trouble is, I don't like complete black Amoled mode either. Maybe I'm just hard to please 😁

I like it. My only criticism so far is that I use Dex pretty frequently and it is not very usable through Dex.

Such a niche use case πŸ™‚

honestly i kinda like it but it is also a bit messy and buggy, and it also has a lot of things that heavily annoy me into using the website on mobile

the main problem is any time i get a reply, i tap the link to go to the reply and it goes to the post without context, what a mess

i also can't see new comments i post without reloading

idk if they fixed it but b4 i couldn't delete or edit posts/comments which was like ???

i do think it's way better than jerboa for many things, especially for a multi-account user who likes to swap onto other instances a lot. but its room to grow is obviously enormous. I won't try to discredit the devs, this is an amazing app for something so early in the game.

It's the fastest lemmy app I've tried and I've tested all the ones I can find on android
