honestly i kinda like it but it is also a bit messy and buggy, and it also has a lot of things that heavily annoy me into using the website on mobile

the main problem is any time i get a reply, i tap the link to go to the reply and it goes to the post without context, what a mess

i also can't see new comments i post without reloading

idk if they fixed it but b4 i couldn't delete or edit posts/comments which was like ???

i do think it's way better than jerboa for many things, especially for a multi-account user who likes to swap onto other instances a lot. but its room to grow is obviously enormous. I won't try to discredit the devs, this is an amazing app for something so early in the game.

Have you tried voyager (used to be wefwef) a lot of the stuff you want can be done in it. It is actually just a webapp or something not a google app or IOS equivalent, dont ask me to define the difference any more..

I have and it is slow as fuck to type in it, it is also somewhat slow/overburdened so things take a moment and that annoys me, while Liftoff is very very fast. I much prefer the normal UI to WefWef/Vger due to the speed issues. The UI is also too iphoney but that's a trivial issue.

I think that might be a problem with your phone or browser. I'm typing this out in wefwef right now and there's no difference between this and WhatsApp or any other app where I would type. Haven't noticed any speed issues whatsoever and it feels pretty near to RIF overall for me.
