Personally I’ve been trying out a bunch of iOS apps, but have been spending the most time on Memmy.

wefwef.app as PWA

Same here--wefwef is amazingly solid for such an early product.

If Sync for Lemmy gets off the ground and is anywhere near as good as the Reddit version, I'll probably switch to that since it was easily my most used Android app before Reddit lost its mind.

Does the PWA shortcut auto-updates or to use a new version I have to delete the shortcut and create it again?

Boost for Lemmy is coming - You can register your interest on the Play Store.

Currently Jerboa, but once Boost for Lemmy launches I'll switch to that

I use connect for lemmy currently but i got jeobra downloaded as well , depending on how performance/feature goes in the next months i will decide what i like more

Liftoff on Android is my current go-to, but I'm eagerly awaiting the first build of Sync for Lemmy. Sync was always my favorite app for the site that shall not be named.

Connect for Lemmy on Android. Reminds me pretty much of RIF.

I'm using connect. Only gripe so far is there's no apparent "hide post" button

Also I'm not sure if "block user" is the same as Sync's "filter user" or something else

Liftoff on Android. Web browser on iOS.

Liftoff let's you search for keywords by Community, Comments, or Posts. That feature alone is golden and no other app does this.

The Wefwef app on Android has all these options in it's search feature: by Post, comment, community, or user.

Coming from Apollo, I have personally been enjoying wefwef.

Same. The transition has been seamless with the UI. Very familiar. Although I find myself swapped to Lemmy to check it out. They have been Lightning fast with the updates

Coming from RIF this is my personal ranking:

  1. wefweb.app. Very clean design, works well and smooth experience. Overall the best implementation so far.

  2. Connect/Lift (tied). Both are solid, I prefer connect sidebar and options but I prefer the design of the posts and comments on Lift. When the comments stack in Connect it looks awful IMO.

  3. Jerboa. As a first option it was good but after so many timeouts, other design issues and multiple errors I kinda gave up on the app. After its polished I'll give it another try.
