best app for lemmy? (lemmy.world)
submitted 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) by Grimy@lemmy.world to c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
 

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.

Ha, I was going to say jerboa is my favorite so far.

I'm having a different experience, haven't had any bugs and the updates seem to add features/stability without introducing any bugs on my device, I'm also on Android.

What kind of things are making it unusable for you?

[–] adhocfungus@midwest.social 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm considering switching too. When my instance updated to .19 or whatever Jerboa would crash if I tried to log in. It sorted itself out after a few days, but it was still a bummer that I couldn't upvote or save anything for three days.

It also randomly crashes on some posts. I've never been able to see a pattern because I am just instantly back at my phone's home screen. Once every two or three days there is a post that throws it off.

It also doesn't seem to handle network issues well. If my Internet goes out or my wifi is acting up my screen gets flooded with json errors.

Nothing major, but enough to make me interested in alternatives.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

Dang, yea, I haven't had any of that. Are you using any special os or configuration?

Those seem like pretty major issues.

Does it have anything to do with which instance you're on?

I don't know anything technically actually, I'm just curious. I'm on s*** just works, and so far s*** has just worked even with clients.
