New here, I miss using RIF but Connect seems pretty good.

Connect is the most usable of the bunch, well, I might need to check Liftoff further, but I am not a fan of its interface.

I've been having a lot of trouble with Liftoff tbh, not sure how much of it is my shitty internet or just user error but I swapped to Jerboa a couple days ago and it is much better.

But when Sync comes along that's gonna be the best for sure

I'm using Liftoff and have 0 issues besides some buttons being too small for my fat fingers.

I can relate, I just collapsed your comment accidentally while trying to upvote it

Every touch screen program I use on all my touch screen devices, you swipe right to go back. On wefwef, it’s a downvote. I’ve erroneously downvoted so many people while trying to go back a page because I tend to use my phone one handed and can’t reach the top right corner with my stubby thumb.

I do like Connect, I just hope they add some QOL features RIF had like thread collapsing, being able to change default download folders, link preview, probably other things I'll think about later. Great start, though!

You can pess and hold for thread collapse.

Or reverse it in the settings if you prefer a tap i stead of a hold.

I hope they implement the option to start all the comments as collapsed.

Connect dev here. Im taking notes!

Thank you for adding the 'scrolling past post marks as read' option. I previously used Joey for Reddit and Connect is the closest lemmy app I've found.

Thanks again!

wow! I didn't expect this, Thank you so much! I'm so excited for what you have in store for us.

I would also like to bring attention to Thunder if you haven't tried it yet.
