Looking for the best FOSS android app for Lemmy.
I like Eternity
Voyager is nice and gets updated frequently
Ive only used jebora. Till I saw this one in a few posts. Kinda digging it. Its a tad more “modern” feeling. I guess. Thanks.
voyager is easiest to use.
eternity is most customizable.
i use both.Just downloaded Eternity after using Jerboa for a while. This is so much better, even more so since I used Infinity for reddit.
My top choices:
- Jerboa and Eternity are native Android apps (the first uses modern technologies like Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, the second one has a lot of Java code and the UI is made with XML layouts for activities/fragments);
- Voyager is portable web app built with React in Typescript, with mobile flavours made using Ionic capacitor;
- Thunder is a cross-platform app built with Flutter in Dart (like Liftoff and Lemmur were in their days);
- there are other FOSS apps like Combustibile (native/Java+XML) or Muffed (Flutter)…
I just want one that opens the lemmy links properly when I click on them from within in posts. I have all links selected in open default apps.
Voyager is absolutely fantastic, even as a PWA. Eternity is very competent too, especially if you are/were an Infinity for Reddit user.
Eternity is great! Best UI in my opinion.
There are a hundred little things that grind my gears with eternity though. Trying to work through them without switching for now.
I use Eternity because I heavily used Infinity, the Reddit app that it’s forked from
Eternity ftw
I use Summit for now. I went through quite a few others but this one is a keeper.
I’ve settled on Thunder. The only downside is that they haven’t implemented replying to direct messages yet, you can only view them but apart from that, it’s good.
Jerboah is the oldest but best.
Voyager has the nice feature to mark posts as read if you scroll past them. Has no way to create posts though.
Sure it does. Click the dots in the upper right corner inside a community.
I like Thunder and Eternity
I dont know is Connect FOSS, but its amazing. I used to be on liftoff, but its not maintained anymore
Jerboa with Dracula theme of course.
