I love it. Some things are a bit awkward ui wise but it's smooth, fast and doesn't heat up my oneplus one
I keep bouncing between this one and Jerboa. I like Liftoff a little more, as it's easier to handle multiple instances and accounts, but I wish that it had mod tools so I wouldn't have to go my communities in the browser or PC to do anything mod related.
I don't like the way it has a different color than the status bar. Looks jarring and incomplete.
You can change app colors in settings.
It's not really a color problem. It's the fact that the gray in the app is not the same shade as the gray in the status bar. Jerboa and other apps make it so seamless, it turns me off in Liftoff. Waiting for Sync/Boost for Lemmy.
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 tried Liftoff, ran into some login issues, and some other minor annoyances and switched to Connect. So far I'm liking connect
I tend to switch back and forth from Thunder to Liftoff and back. I like the layout and gestures of Thunder but Liftoff allows me to share memes directly from the app. That's a surprisingly rare feature.
My only gripe is that there does not seem to be a "context" button as the website has when people reply to my comments. Other than that, seems pretty solid.
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 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 π
Iβm a Mlem guy myself. I like a well designed and native (Swift on Apple platforms) UI. Iβve been absolutely loving it! I canβt 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)!
It's the fastest lemmy app I've tried and I've tested all the ones I can find on android
I think it's missing a few key features. But for the most part I really like it
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 π
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.
