I guess I have to try this site now, so what are people using for Android? Any good apps?

    I mostly use Jerboa but I tried Connect and it looks a little more polished. I only tried it because Jerboa isn’t compatible with Lemmy.world at the moment, but that will be fixed with the release of server version 18.1 in the near future.

    I’ve been using jerboa, it’s the only one I’ve heard of, it’s not great but under active development, and better than the web interface for Lemmy instances

        It’s a pretty new issue. It seems latest Jerboa requires lemmy 0.18 (which surprises me since this server version is just two days old… )

        But actually I am posting this comment with Jerboa right now. So the app complains but still works anyway.

    I’ve tried Memmy, Mlem, and Thunder. I’ve been jumping back and forth between Memmy and Thunder today. I like that Memmy and Thunder have messages and swipe integrated. Mlem is still getting messages up and running. I do like that Mlems themes can match the system, aka switch between dark/light mode. But so far Memmy seems the most feature rich and Thunder is the cleanest UI I’ve seen so far. Want to try out Artemis when it launches too.

    I just started trying thunder for Android, was trying Jebora before it. Downloading/Installing the APK from GitHub was super easy. I quite like the interface and it’s compact view, but you can’t sort by top (any of day/week/month/etc) and I haven’t figured out if you can use change the default sorting, but it’s quite nice for how early along in it’s development is. Default is local/Hot, I’d like all/TopDay for now, blocking communities Im not interested in and subscribing to new ones that pique my interest.

      I learned about thunder in this thread today, but i have troubles figuring the UI even for basic things. For instance, how do you reply to a specific comment? (I can only see this icon in the lower right corner, but it does not look like it will do anything else than creating a first level comment!)

        Got it. Replying is one of those swipe actions. Disturbingly unusual UI, although it could be quite usable in practice! (still missing other options such as editing or deleting posts… )
