Current best lemmy clients

Hey I figured I’d make a post and see the state of current lemmy appage, since I’m looking for a good one. So far I’ve used Jerboa, Thunder, Eternity, and Voyager.

Eternity seems to be a dead project, it’s full of bugs and hasn’t recieved an update since The Exodus

Thunder seems ok and is what I’m using right now, but I can’t seem to send direct messages, and can’t “Don’t blur NSFW preview on NSFW comms” which sucks. The messaging is the dealbreaker for me.

Voyager I used momentarily but the UI was not my favorite.

Jerboa seems OK if unpolished (which is ok to me) but I don’t trust the rabid idealogue that makes it and using another instance of his site is one thing, but installing an app is another. Has it been audited to confirm lack of spyware?

Ideally through this I can find one with instance blocking, DMs, and a decent UI. What’re your experiences with the current state of lemmy apps?

I’m made Quiblr. Lot’s of cool features (For You feed, different post formats, etc.). Plus I tried to make the UI clean and intuitive.

Just a web client right now. If there’s enough demand, I’ll make a native version.

Lmk what you think

Hey, is open-sourcing Quiblr still planned?

@Aurelius@lemmy.world avatar

Yup. I will have a full update in a few days regarding Quiblr!

I’ve tried Boost, Connect, Eternity, Jerboa, Liftoff, Summit, Sync, Thunder, and Voyager.

My favourites are Eternity and Thunder. Eternity is the only app I’ve found with “swipe between posts” navigation. Thunder has the best remote instance link handling, and its tools for inserting usernames and community names are better than even the Lemmy web UI.

Was on Voyager until it updated past my old OS. Current version of Voyager no longer supports my old 6S Plus.

So now I’m on Thunder. It works. I liked Voyager better, but I won’t complain about an app that still works on my phone.

Eternity got a big update just a week ago

fuzzzerd ,

Not seeing it on f-droid yet.

Blaze ,

The dev just submitted another build today

Eternity on tablet, Voyager on phone. Both great

fmstrat ,

Thunder 100%. Super active dev community, constant releases, and if there’s something that does cause a problem, post it as an issue and it typically gets resolved quickly.

After Raccon4Lemmy dies. !summit is best for me. It’s closed source though but it doesn’t show any ads unlike some other popular Lemmy apps.

“The reports of RaccoonForLemmy’s death were greatly exaggerated.”

It’s back: !raccoonforlemmyapp

Flax_vert ,

Eternity received an update fairly recently

I’ve tried Jeroba, Thunder, Voyager, Sync, Boost, LiftOff, and Connect.

So far, my favorite is Connect.

Connect for me too

try connect

So far I tried voyager, eternity, liftoff and Jerboa. Liftoff wasn’t usable and eternity and voyager weren’t exactly my type of UI. I stick with jerboa. I really like the simplicity and how clean and intuitive it is. Only thing lacking is the ability to create communities.

Blaze ,

Only thing lacking is the ability to create communities.

Seems weird that it’s not implemented. I guess they assume you’re not supposed to create communities every day.

cows_are_underrated ,

Yeah, but I would really like that swing implemented.

The websites all work perfectly fine.
