Voyager, reminds me a bit of Apollo for Reddit and has a good webapp for desktop usage.
Summit. Reminds me of Sync on Reddit 5 years ago
I’ve been on Summit forever now. Very active development, and they’ve added every feature request I’ve had along with many others’. I lose track of all the options it gets anymore.
It looks good, works good, and when it doesn’t, it gets fixed quickly.
I share lots of posts and articles and put them in quote blocks and just bring able to select all text and guy a single button that auto quotes all paragraphs won me over for good, and then multi-communities was the icing on the cake.
If you ever ask what app has feature X, it’s likely already in Summit.
what does summit give you over using a browser on lemmy on your phone?
Voyager.
I used “Reddit is Fun” for years on Reddit but when it came time to switch to Lemmy I picked Voyager (wefwef at the time) because the UI was the most similar. I tried many of the other popular apps and I was happy with most of them, but Voyager was (and is) my favorite.
It’s simple. Lots of text. Easy to use. Looks nice.
A web browser. Why limit myself with an app, when Firefox can do anything I want?

Connect. First one I happened to try, it works well, gets good updates, and is Canadian
I’m surprised at how little Connect love I see here.
I started with Jerboa and it just didn’t feel right. I tried Blorp and a couple of otherez but Connect just has the feel.and features.
The same one I use on my laptop, Firefox/lemmy-ui.
Jerboa
Heard that it was an app from a Lemmy dev.Tried it and it was simple enough.
I usually use the official Lemmy client in the browser, because it is minimalistic and fast on any device
the website, because it works the same as on my computer
Can I ask why anyone doesn’t use, like, a browser? What’s the benefit?
The browser doesn’t remember where I was in my feed when I go back from reading a post. It’s also slower
If it’s a FOSS app with support for image/video caching, then it maybe a good thing for people who have slow connections or who want to save data.

I just type in the URL into phone browser and use it that way
Boost because it works.

Phone, it’s connect or summit, depending on which phone. I like summit’s looks better on oled screens. Otherwise it’s connect
Jerboa, I was using Eternity by Bazalansky (Eternity is Infinity for Reddit but for… Lemmy) but it hasn’t been updated continuously, and I already had Jerboa as backup app just in case and it’s from the lemmy devs so it’s (for me) guaranteed to keep up with lemmy development
I have Jerboa installed from F-Droid, but I use Firefox.
