I made a folder with my fav lemmy apps that I tried so far, and they are sorted by favorite to less favorite. By far, wefwef is my most used and I do switch to lifoff sometimes. Also, the official lemmy app is really not bad compared to reddit’s official app. I would say try all of them and see which one works the best for you. waiting for sync and boost to launch. let me know if you have any other suggestions I haven’t tried yet.
I’m trying out Summit now and it’s quite good. But I don’t think it has a list of communities that I’m subscribed to and I can only choose to either see all posts from my “subreddits” or all from my instance/federation. Apart from that it’s good.
Piece of advice, if you submit a comment and you get an error or if it just disappears, the comment possibly still got submitted.
I’ve been having the same issue, so write a comment, copy it, submit it, reload the page and see if it got posted, if not just paste and try again.
Is repetitive postings one of the bugs :)
U forgot Thunder
Thunder should 100% be on this list.
Has anyone tried Summit yet?
Pretty solid, good looking dark theme, don’t like the lack of “next top comment” down arrow, the images seem to either have a hard time loading (or maybe Lemmy users are posting them wrong still), but seems to be more noticeable on Summit. Quick navigation and easy to get around though. If day is my second fave, after Jerboa (now that it is stable again).
Edit: not so stable Jerboa, got network error posting, it went, but I didn’t think it did. Double posted, hence the delete. Not sure the experience on Summit, but seems to be more stable, in general.
I’m using wefwef and you can hardly tell that its not native
Ah, that explains the navigation difficulties.
Kept accidentally backing out of the page.
Keep seeing people talk about wefwef, but I can’t even find it to download
I see Connect, Jerboa, Lemmotif, and Liftoff

What am I doing wrong?
I can post on the Lemmy website (typing this on my desktop right now), and I have downloaded and installed a couple of the apps listed above on my Android phone, but I can’t log-in into any of them.
I have tried many times over a couple of days now so I don’t think it is because of the Reddit refugees swarming this site or those apps, but maybe I am wrong.
One rather confusing thing is that when I try to log into wefwef for instance (but I think the other apps have something similar), it asks for Account’s server. I don’t know. I pick lemmy.world but I am only assuming that is correct. Then the next screen asks for username or email. I’ve tried “Hazdaz”, I have also tried the email this account is tied to. I have tried all lowercase. I have double and triple checked my password. But everytime it says “double check your credentials”.
Since you are able to login to the Lemmy website, have you tried changing your password and then logging into an app?
Also I think account server is the site where you originally created your account. I created my account on lemmy.world so that’s what I use.
I literally just changed the password on my desktop. It’s weird because there is no confirmation email or anything like that when you change it. I then grabbed my phone and on wefwef I made sure it was up to date. I typed in the password I just changed my account to on my desktop and I am getting the same error message.
Are there any others than jerboa for android?
Wefwef is strange, you go to website and then install app from there. It’s actually good.
Tried Summit and Connect, not that impressed yet.
I’m using Thunder and I’m liking it while I wait for Sync for Lemmy to be released.
Due to a bug in reposted comments about Summit, I will be locking this thread to prevent further issues.
Feel free to make a new thread about Lemmy apps!
Never used Apollo but wow Wefwef with Hermit browser is just chef’s kiss
The alternatives have looked nice, but overall I keep coming back to Jerboa as it has had less bugs for my experience. But I also get automated updates via F-Droid and previous versions have been buggy.
If you have izzy’s repo enabled then liftoff updates too
I do use Izzy’s repo, it isn’t a full f-droid experience without it

Lemmotif is unusable as it is. You can’t even log in to an account. On the other hand, Summit and Thunder are worth a try.
