I'm currently using Jerboa but it's a little janky so I'm looking for recommendations

Edit: I think I'm gonna be using Eternity for Lemmy. Thanks for the suggestions!

Boost is best no doubt.

But for low end phones (like mine), Jerboa is a good alternative.

Does Boost for Lemmy need more resources than Boost for Reddit of something? BfR ran better than the home screen on my 15 year old tablet.

Haven't done a direct comparison, but i would say it runs the same.

But like i said i run Jerboa since it's lighter on design and it's better optimized (uses Android 8.0 SDK instead of Boost's Android 5.0 SDK)

Liftoff.

Was a Boost user and was excited for it to come out for Lemmy, but the post creation process doesn't look to do all what I want it to do, so I'm still using Liftoff.

If I was just lurking, I'd be using Boost because it looks great, but Liftoff gives me a similar browsing experience with better posting.

For now I kinda got stuck with boost. But I still have all the other major clients to try out from time to time.

Summit. It feels the most like RiF.

Check out Photon! It works on desktop and on mobile (as a PWA) and it's great! The dev is super active too!

Thunder has been slightly less janky for me.

Can anyone compare Sync to Eternity? What are the pro/cons?

[–] Dr_Cog@mander.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Sync has a monthly fee to get rid of ads, Eternity is always ad-free

[–] AlmightySnoo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Voyager is simply amazing (see !voyagerapp@lemmy.world)

[–] NataliePortland@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

I have Memmy in iOS and it's great. The only thing I could wish is that I could either share memes or download them

[–] Minty95@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Until a couple of days yi would have said Liftoff but I must admit Boost seems slightly better, the pro version, the free version with ads is awful, but at only 3.50 euros that's not expensive and worth the money

Tesseract as a PWA. Photon as a PWA before that.
