How are you accessing Lemmy now? Browser or app? (lemmy.world)

Hi fellow sync-ers,

Having joined Lemmy recently, I have been having a ton of fun. However accessing Lemmy through my mobile browser has been an awful experience, similar to my past Reddit experience till I found Sync.

I'm not sure how much longer I can tolerate the browser experience, and am hesitating jumping on a app. Where's your head at about this?

Edit (4 days later)

I've been on Connect and has been 8/10 so far. Gonna dual use with liftoff after seeing the comments.

I did a 5 minute ctr+F to see which were the most popular apps/ interfaces. Not sorted by pos/neg, just mentions.

  • wefwef/ voyager - 46
  • connect - 43
  • Liftoff - 33
  • Jerboa - 23
  • Thunder - 16
  • Firefox - 13
  • Thunder - 16
  • Old.lemmy - 5
  • Alexandrite - 4
  • Vivaldi - 2

I'm also browser-only. Never even used an app for Lemmy, I don't need someone to see I have a Lemmy app on my homescreen.

I never once used an app for reddit - the few times I did access it from my phone I'd do so through Firefox, with "Use Desktop Site" enabled.

I did bookmark wefwef / now Voyager for Lemmy, and I use it when I use Lemmy on my phone (I like that it doesn't need to be installed) - but I do that so infrequently it's basically a rounding error.
