I did my part. By which I mean I made an account and made a single comment (well, two now.)

Still hoping to find a good comparable app to Slide for Reddit. Liftoff for Lemmy has fairly similar comment layout at least.

Sync for Lemmy is coming. It was my favourite Reddit app. Should be good here too.

[–] Alivrah@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I’m using wefwef. Having used Apollo for almost 7 years, it makes Lemmy feels just like home!

[–] RatzChatsubo@vlemmy.net 4 points 2 years ago

Sync will be the game changer

[–] coffeemeist3r@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Can't wait for sync

[–] DrSanta@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Never tried Sync, I think. Maybe I'll give it a try for Lemmy some point.

Former sync user, it was amazing! Can highly recommend. They have sign-ups open now for when it's released for Lemmy :)

Using connect for lemmy and liftoff, can't decide which to use permanently?

[–] DrSanta@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

After playing with Connect, it feels a little more polished than Liftoff. But I think Connect has more dev time on it.

[–] Nanno@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Connect and Jerboa are also alright. I think i like Jerboa the most so far

[–] geekworking@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Started with Connect and didn't find anything lacking that would make me want go looking for something else. Figure I will stay with it until the former reddit apps complete their ports.

[–] DrSanta@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

WefWef seemed pretty good. But wefwef being a web app just disappeared from my phone, along with a convention web app, after I restarted. Weird.

I'll look up your suggestions. Liftoff doesn't appear to have an inbox right now. At least not one I didn't see.

[–] tooting_lemmy@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

WefWef keeps stopping when I'm trying to scroll. Like every fourth finger swipe of scrolling it does nothing. I like the visuals of it though. Personally I use Jerboa.

[–] thrilly@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Glad it’s not just me

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

The inbox is top left bell, awkward I know.

[–] DrSanta@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah, saw it on the homepage, though not getting notifications for it. Had to come back and manually check. Probably just a communication error, getting a lot of errors lol.

Case in point: just got five+ "failed to post comment"s.

Also don't see where to edit comments. But also probably something I'm just overlooking because I'm still new to this software.

Edit: just saw the three dots. Damn I'm blind.

[–] willnever_fadeaway@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nobody mentioned Thunder so I'm going to mention it!

[–] DrSanta@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Nevermind heard of it. What's your opinion?

Like how's it compare to the others?

Dope. Had to hunt down the uh... "Sublemmy" I guess we'd call it? Maybe not. Community, anyway.

Link is being read as an email and Liftoff wants to open up Gmail for it. Which I get, looks like one.

Same here Re: Slide, Liftoff does the trick for me and runs on android 7

[–] DrSanta@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

It feels closer to it. I'm really looking forward to Slide for Lemmy to get completed.

Feels like home.

Still completely broken right now. Only version 0.0.2. can't even access a "sublemmy" without it crashing. Good enough to browse the frontpage and look at posts. Nothing else for now.

Using Connect at the moment. Bouncing between it and Liftoff.
