(single quotes around best for subjectivity) I’m trying to get all of my Android using friends and family into the Fediverse.
I’m an iOS user, so I have no idea about Android apps.
I use Connect on my phone. I’ve tried others, even Sync when it came out but I guess I was already used to Connect.
Not open source
That’s not a requirement for everyone. And I don’t mind paying someone for their efforts.
It kind of is, in this community.
To win over friends and family, an app being FOSS doesn’t matter as much as its UI/UX.
This is a FOSS-specific community.
It’s so much better than sync. I might try Boost once it’s released, but connect just works really well
Sync followed by Liftoff
Sync followed by Jerboa, for me.
Sync for lemmy now. Boost for lemmy when it comes out. Jerboa is nice too.
when I wanted a lemmy app, searching f-droid only pulled up Jerboa, and I remain happy with it.
I was using Jerboa for most things but using the progressive web app as well. Sync is my preferred method for browsing and commenting at this point, but I’m still using the PWA for mod responsibilities and submissions (though I think LJ expects to have submissions working soon and 🤞 mod tools aren’t far behind). It’s fair to say that Sync is my preference due to comfort but the amount of customization is what makes it so comfy in the first place.
Liftoff is working really well for me!
Infinity for Lemmy! I’ve been using Infinity for Reddit way before the API situation, and I am very used to the interface.
Tried other clients like Thunder and Connect, but the interfaces are either too chunky or the colors are off. Infinity for Lemmy is essentially a complete copy of the original and I love it.
Liftoff, voyager. Really loving the look of Infinity but it’s very stage and missing some features. Maybe down the road infinity might become my app of choice if it adds more features that I like.
Sync, Liftoff and Voyager are the three I’ve used. They’re all good.
I’m using both Liftoff and Jerboa. I can’t decide which is better, so I’m interested in others people love.
I have the same problem. I have Liftoff set for one if my Profiles, and Jerboa for the other one.
I’ve only tried Liftoff, but I’m liking it so far.
I’ve tried a few and Thunder is my favourite, plus it’s F/OSS
I’ve tried pretty much every app available, and liked Thunder the most. second place goes to Jerboa.
The web browser works fine for me, and then I don’t have a other app on my phone. I’ve tried a bunch of different apps, Jerboa, Liftoff, Wefwef/voyager, and connect, and I keep coming back to just viewing it in browser. Haven’t tried Sync because the idea of wilfully putting ads into a thing that doesn’t have them is disgusting to me.

Every of the “Hot” app there is a solid choice, but it will probably depend on their personal preferences
