I do get the “distributed” nature of networks and the underlying philosophy, but only if there’s a common interface where lemmy/mastodon or other similar network created accounts can be used seamlessly in addition to the current behavior.
Trying Connect on Android and it seems to be the best so far. I thought Summit was lacking and Jerboa looks worse imo. This one is just lacking some small qol features that would go a long way like how images and comment threads are handled.
I’m using connect as well, seems like the best of the current options. The way the comments are indented and colored reminds me of one of the Reddit Android apps, maybe relay
Liftoff on Android has been better than jerboa for me, minor bugs which I’m sure will get fixed. My favorite reddit app was sync tho, so excited to see that when it releases.
Yeah, I like lift off. Still doesn’t have font size for the comments yet. Waiting for that feature and also the notifications to work. Wefwef, thunder and connect for Lemmy are pretty good, too
I already learned my lesson when I signed up to the big Mastodon instance hosted on the other side of the world—found the second largest US-based server I could find, signed up there, rock solid so far.
I am too. I downloaded an app (Jerboa) made an account, and then just started searching for some of the interest subreddits I used and subscribed to them. Found an aww, tech, movie and tv shows, reddit migration, gunpla, and others so I can customize my “front page”.
I took the learn by doing approach. I didn’t really look at any tutorials or how to guides, just started with the app messed around. Did some searches for hobbies and interest. Linked an account and then started subscribing. I think I got the jist, but still can’t see the full scope and picture of how it works but not bad for day 1 I think. Good luck on your journey!!
Man could you imagine just living your entire life down there, no idea of the concept of land or air or space, never seeing the light of the sun or feeling it’s warmth?
Your entire universe is just cold, dark, and damp, and it’s everything you will ever know.
Just signed up on lemmy.world after I saw Boost for Lemmy is gonna be a thing. Like many here I’m just a tiny little bit confused, but will probably figure it out.
Same, this Connect for Lemmy is decent enough and I find it a lot more user friendly than the web version but I’ll be right on the Boost app when it becomes available
Running Connect for Lemmy here on Android. It seems nice and minimalist. I was a little dissuaded from trying Jerboa with some of the negative reviews.
I like the chrome PWA, jerboa, and wefwef. Thunder is decent. Liftoff looks great but doesn’t allow for all instances to join yet ( kmown bug). Haven’t liked connect as much but trying to give them all a fair try. What I am really looking forward to is Sync.
