Liftoff is what I've settled on, so far. I've found it to have the best performance of all the Android options.

Thunder has gotten a lot better, as well. It's now the fastes for me, by far.

Thunder was pretty snappy. I didn't know about that one, so I tried it just now. I'm afraid to say I think I like Liftoff better still, because Thunder uses swipe gestures for a few things and is missing a few "top" sorts, but it seemed like it has potential.

It didn't have top sorting at all a few versions ago 😅

Theres a dozen of us contributing to it every day, it's coming along very nicely, and making it usable without the gestures is a current focus. It's already possible with posts, but next up are comments.

Keep it in mind! Check back a bit later and I'm sure you'll be impressed.

Cool, sounds like it's coming along well. I'll give it another shot next update or so :)

Gestures can now be entirely disabled, and you can turn on buttons for posts and comments. All top sort options are now available.

Also play store release within next 24 hours.

Cool, thanks for the update! Coincidentally, Liftoff put gestures with no option to turn them off in their latest release, so I've been a little unsatisfied about that. I'll try Thunder again.

The play store release is a huge deal too. Ngl that I probably wouldn't have used Thunder if I had to manually update it from github for each new release.
