Looking for a good Lemmy and/or KBin app.

[–] Spliffman1@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I have been using / testing 6 of them Liftoff, Connect, Thunder, Jerboa, Wefwef, Summit. All have strong points... But with it's recent update I will give the edge to Liftoff. Accent theming added... And the Amoled (my favorite) theme is beautiful

[–] Skanky@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Agreed. Liftoff seems to hit all the right buttons so far. Allows multiple instances/accounts, beautiful theming, animations, smooth performance.

That being said, Sync has its work cut out for it, but i have no doubt it's going to be amazing when ready

Oh yeah, I was using Sync for Reddit exclusively and it was a kinda sad moment when I uninstalled it today... It's so great to see so much development and choice with lemmy apps tho, and a lot of collaboration

Keeping Sync on my phone so I can sell it in 10 years for $40k like phones with Flappy Bird

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I read your comment, jumped over to the play store and the dev already removed all Sync versions from the store.

Keep your copy safe and sound.

All other Reddit 3rd party client are still there.

Trying Liftoff after coming from mainly Jerboa and Thunder, this is the most refined experience yet.

I'm personally waiting for Sync for Lemmy to come out, but in the meantime, Liftoff for Lemmy and Thunder have been pretty good for me

[–] Myriadblue@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Connect is working really well for me, but I prefer jerboa. Unfortunately that isn't working right now with lemmy. World being on an older version. Once they go to 18.1, I should be able to use it again.

[–] fr33man@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

There are a lot of options for Lemmy, but beware they still need to mature a bit. The two apps I keep using the most are Thunder and Connect for Lemmy. Lots of users swear by Liftoff but I find the aesthetics a bit lacking for me. There's also Lemming which is the most barebones but has a great UI for something that has only had a couple of alpha releases. Most if not all of these are available to download from Github.

[–] palebluedot@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

Wefwef, truly amazing and polished experience!

[–] efitz11@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Connect, liftoff, thunder, jerboa are the best ones at the moment

[–] dr_dour@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

wefwef is the smoothest right now and it's just a webapp

[–] Reliant1087@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

All the apps I have tried so far have been great. Liftfof however is on a class of it's own. A unique feature it has is the ability to combined feet from different accounts on different instances.

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 2 points 1 year ago

Jerboa is decent, still in its early stages though.
