I tried Jerboa and I couldn't login, now giving wefwef a try. Wefwef works but it's a PWA with iOS theme. I'd like to switch to App that is close to the original Android Reddit app.

sboulema , in Jerboa currently unusable for other people?
@sboulema@lemmy.world avatar

Latest Jerboa requires a specific server version and not every server has updated yet.

There are a lot of other app options! Like Thunder, Connect or Summit

What's Summit? Never heard of it.

Dev of Summit here. It is a lemmy reader like the other apps mentioned. You can find it on the play store by searching “app for lemmy” or “lemmy reader”. I’m actually releasing a big update today. Here’s a preview of the feature: youtube.com/shorts/8mIVZflUHhU?feature=share.

Oh that’s beautiful! I look forward to giving it a go!

The only one I could find on the Play store is Liftoff. I guess the others have to be downloaded from elsewhere.

Lrobie ,

You can download Thunder from IzzyOnDroid (you can add this as a repository to F-Droid).

@idunnololz@lemmy.world avatar

Summit should be on the playstore. Try searching “app for lemmy” or “lemmy reader”.

@Spitz@lemmy.world avatar

I found Summit later on, and it didn’t work well for me.

idunnololz ,
@idunnololz@lemmy.world avatar

Oh no :(. If you’re up for it, I am open to feedback. You can send feedback either here or over at lemmy.world/c/summit. But if you don’t want to I understand.

Spitz ,
@Spitz@lemmy.world avatar

Well it was as laggy as the other apps, because of the update and the increase of signups. Also I found it difficult to navigate, to find the right buttons to push to access a certain thing. I know it’s early days and I’m sure your app will improve in time, and I’ll try it again later.

It's not working for me. So I switched to Liftoff.

ki77erb ,

Same. Won't let me log in. Liftoff is fantastic though!

warmaster ,

Try Thunder: https://github.com/hjiangsu/thunder

You can install and autoupdate using: https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium

ki77erb ,

I already have Thunder, Connect, Summit, Liftoff and Jerboa. I just thought I would play with all of them for a few weeks until I find the one I like best.

B4tid0 ,
@B4tid0@lemmy.world avatar

How you like them so far? Anything you are partial about?

ki77erb ,

They're all pretty early in development so they have their bugs but so far I like Liftoff and Thunder the best. They both have a great UI. Jerboa was the one I started with first but now I am not able to login because of the whole lemmy.world version number thing.

B4tid0 ,
@B4tid0@lemmy.world avatar

I see. Imma go and try liftoff and thunder then , thanks you very much.

lemmyvore ,

Not OP but I did the same. Tbh none of them are perfect, they still have all kinds of quirks and bugs. But new versions are coming out all the time. Today Jerboa and Connect were working better than the others. Tomorrow who knows. 😄

@entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

You should also check out wefwef. It’s very full-featured already and is getting updated constantly.

ki77erb ,

I did it. It just looks very specifically designed in the style of iOS. It’s not bad though.

sirtwinklebottom ,
@sirtwinklebottom@lemmy.world avatar

Same here. Liftoff is great.

Fauxaly ,
@Fauxaly@lemmy.world avatar

Just installed liftoff to try it out and unfortunately have to say that I like the layout even BETTER than Jerboa!

I feel a weird sense of loyalty to Jerboa because it was my first app for Lemmy but I might actually like Liftoff better.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Spacebar ,
@Spacebar@lemmy.world avatar

I changed some settings to make it look better to me. I'm happiest with liftoff right now.

velvetcrown ,

Try connect

kremdostup , in What's your lemmy app of choice?
@kremdostup@lemmy.world avatar

After a quick search, I've decided to settle on Connect. The UI looks really familiar to Infinity, which is a giant plus for me.

HidingCat , in I installed Lineage OS on my device. Installing it was surprisingly easy.

Installing Lineage OS (or most custom ROMs) isn't hard. It's getting the phone to the state to accept custom ROMs that might be tricky.

I think Xiaomi's process is actually quite painless, once you get the boot unlocker working. I remember they make people wait to get the unlock going, did that happen to you?

I personally preferred the Twrp custom recovery route for loading ROMs, it makes it pretty quick and easy. Also good if you like trying out ROMs!

lemmyvore ,

Lots of phones don’t have a working TWRP ported for them, unfortunately.

HidingCat ,

I guess I've been lucky then! TWRP is really nice if your phone has it.

Marble_turret , in What's your lemmy app of choice?

Wefwef is good, but Sync is better imo

Edit - Got confused trying out so many. Wewef best I've found so far, Sync not yet available.

spiderman ,
@spiderman@lemmy.fmhy.ml avatar

what? sync for lemmy hasn’t been released yet.

T156 ,

They're clearly just from the future.

glarf , in What's your lemmy app of choice?

Connect for lemmy works great for me so far. Though it doesn't support wide screens very well.

IndomitableAlbus , in The Google Play Store is feeling blue - Play Store’s accent color has changed from green to blue

I too noticed the accent colour change to Blue, which at first included the updates box background. Strangely the updates box background then went back to Green.

I quite liked the Blue updates box background so decided to quiz Google on this and contacted Playstores support team.

Honestly, I might as well have been speaking to a bot, maybe I was 🤔

I got a scripted answer back from Jenny, part of who's advise was to reinstall my OS, WTF.

Undeterred, I thanked her for the predictably, scripted advice and informed her I wasn't about to go wiping my phone when there wasn't an issue with it, this was a server side change.

The reply I got was a joke, exactly the same, scripted response, only this time I was assured the reply wasn't scripted but the actual fix, oh wow .....

By now it was obvious Jenny hadn't got a clue what I was referring to and was just attempting to knock my enquiry out of the park.

Right I thought, this time I'm gonna give it everything. Armed with marked up screenshots of before and after, my device manufacturer, os, Android version, etc, the whole nine yards I responded, suggesting poor Jenny escalate my enquiry to Playstores specialist team, who may be better placed to answer my questions.

Guess what I got back, nope not yet another scripted response.

This time I got a " Thank you for using Google Support " ticket closed, Email and no mention of a " How did we do " survey to follow.

So the moral of the story is my enquiry got bined because Jenny either didn't understand, was playing at Google God because she wants to make it up the ladder, or just couldn't be bothered, idk.

Anyway, I thought you guys might enjoy reading this.

I'm using liftoff until sync is released

Soon to be Sync For Lemmy!

Sleepnut , in Word to Emoji Rules Changing? On phone

In the keyboard settings (aosp,gboard,etc) usually there’s an option for enabling/disabaling suggestions. That might solve the issue.

Kyoyeou OP ,

I sadly didn't find it, so instead I made my own macro's !

@trambe@lemmy.world avatar

Lowkey never really liked the curved screen trend anyways. Had an s8 and really disliked it. It looks cool but in practice, really annoying

lochi , in Word to Emoji Rules Changing? On phone

I'm not exactly sure about what you mean, but I think my app can help you with that. See -> https://lemmy.world/post/831242

Kyoyeou OP ,

Thanks! I ended up doing this instead now!

Fold, for sure. Actually pocketable, and secure once pocketed.
