Connect for Lemmy is amazing.

There's also wefwef, which seems to be a clone of Apollo.

Popular Reddit apps like Sync and Boost are currently in the process of making Lemmy ports.

I'm using Connect as well and finding it easier and less buggy to use than I was Liftoff or Jerboa. Digging the site so far, I hope it keeps growing!
