I was looking for a place to share my two favorite Mastodon and Lemmy clients, they are called Voyager Connect Boost for Lemmy and Moshidon for Mastodon (if you are really serious about privacy I recommend Connect still)
(the official Mastodon app works fine though, you just can’t follow new hashtags from it)
They are very good, try them out sometime 👍 (I’ll update this post whenever my opinion changes)
Sync for Lemmy. Tried Liftoff before Sync was available, and it just wasn’t comparable to my Reddit experience. Sync just feels so great to use.
Try also Avelon. But for iOS only. It’s really nice.
Liftoff is by far my favorite, though that’s android only I believe
The ability to subscribe or interact with other instances without having to switch accounts is unparalleled. It’s what keeps me on Liftoff.
Is that not a thing everywhere? I believe that’s how I’ve been using Voyager on iOS
I’ve tried so many, and Liftoff is my favorite too.
Not anymore, both liftoff and thunder are now on both iOS and Android.
Liftoff is available on iOS too! It’s probably the exact same app, but I find the interface a bit too cluttered for my tastes. But it is packed with features!
liftoff is pretty cool. in fact you can “subscribe” instances is really cool
How do you mean?
Infinity for Lemmy is great
I tried Arctius, it looks good but misses a few features. Maybe I give it another try in the future.
I use Liftoff, it is good but the design is a little bit boring, but Liftoff is very useable as a daily driver and works fine.
I discovered Connect yesterday, it is a good match if you want a good design and features. It has a new post button like Liftoff. I like this. Connect seems to be a good match for me.
Voyager was not my case, did not like it. Tastes are different. Same for Sync
For Mastodon, I use Moshidon. I like it very much
+1 for Connect
The only thing I am missing right now, is the ability to increase the icon size and community name under the post title 🤔
Do I overlook something?
For Lemmy sync and voyager, for mastodon I use elk.zone for both desktop and mobile
On android: Artemis, Connect and Infinity for Lemmy; Moshidon for Mastodon
Connect
connect is a great lemmy app!
For Lemmy, I primarily use Photon and have contributed a little bit to the project.
I use photon for the web too! Love the UI.
I’m using Megalodon for Mastodon. I still can’t decide what to use for Lemmy.
For mobile I use liftoff. The real question is, what are you guys using on PC?
firefox
I mean… which frontend. See my other comment for the reason
Have you tried out Firefish? It’s another micro-blogging site like Mastodon, but the UI looks better in my opinion. You can follow Mastodon users on there and a bunch of other Fediverse content as well. They’re still working on an official app, but the PWA works quite nicely.
Its still lacking a good threaded view for Lemmy content IMO. The Friendica default frontend does it much better.
Because I don’t like the way photos and media in general shows at the default frontend. I use wefwef (can’t remember the new name) on PC for now. I like the to see the media big sized on my feed, and that gift autoplays.
The new name is Voyager.
Alexandrite selfhosted eith my instance. Looks far better than Lemmy UI
Yeah but it doesn’t solve my problem unfortunately… too compact for me. Wefwef does the work tho, idk why I’m keep searching for another client XD
Thanks for telling me about Voyager, I feel like I finally found the app for me!
I am using the iOS App Store version of Voyager, and it is excellent as well. It finally displaced Memmy for me, which is also a good one to try.
I really like Ice Cubes for mastodon. And for Lemmy I’be been working on my own client for a few weeks now called Gravity, feel free to check it out on TestFlight.
Does exist any possibility to use your client also with Kbin? Thanks :)
Not at this point. The Kbin API is really different than other lemmy instances’. If I were to add this it would require a stack dedicated to Kbin support, and it’s not on my roadmap for the moment. Maybe when I’m done with all the basic features.
I’ll let you know!
Downloaded to do some testing 👍
Voyager is amazing and it’s my main for Lemmy, but I don’t have any issues with the official Mastodon app. Is there something the other Mastodon apps do that the official one doesn’t?
The official Mastodon app doesn’t support following hashtags, for some reason (the Mastodon website does, but the app doesn’t)
I haven’t had an issue with following hashtags with the official app. I can even get a list of hashtags I’m following.

Another appreciation to voyager. Visually feels like we never left the place that shall not be spoken.
For mastodon ivory sucked me into their paid model. The app is just so nice but long term don’t like the idea of paying monthly for an app that I don’t use a lot. Need to find an alternative on iOS
I really like Ice Cubes for Mastodon. Give that one a look if you haven’t.
Never seen this one. Looks nice !
It lacks a bit of the polish of Ivory, but it’s feature set is second to mine. Quote boosts and multi tag built right in are killer
