Best Android Lemmy client for someone coming from Reddit? Hi everyone! I recently switched from Reddit and I’m still getting used to Lemmy. I’m looking for an Android client that feels as close as possible to the Reddit experience: a clean feed, smooth gestures, easy community switching and strong user expirience. I’ve seen many options (Voyager, Thunder, Jerboa, Summit, Raccoon, Interstellar) and I’m not sure which one to pick. Open source is a plus for me. What do you use, and why? Any pros and cons from daily use would be really helpful. Thanks in advance!

    Summit and boost (from dev who made the one for reddit) are my favorite

    I used jerboa for some time and then switched to voyager. In think it’s really thought out and clean experience. It also gets updated frequently and the team behind it listen to user feedback.

    Mobile or desktop, my preferred interface is mlmym (aka old.lemmy). Unfortunately .ml doesn’t host it, I left .ml partially for that reason (and partially for others) to move to lemmy.today which has old.lemmy.today. As a 10+ year old.reddit user I find the old Reddit interface ideal, and mlmym is very faithful at recreating it (and actually fits it better on mobile than real old.reddit).

    I used RiF (Reddit is Fun) in the before times. When that got shut down I switched to Lemmy and used Jerboa. I can’t remember why (maybe something broke) but I switched to Voyager and have been quite happy. I’ve found out “there’s an option for that” multiple times when there was a particular feature I didn’t like. Fuck Spez

    github.com/dbeley/awesome-lemmy#mobile--desktop-a… In addition to gathering feedback, I would also strongly recommend trying multiple clients to find one that suits your preferences. It is a relatively friction-free experience.

    I really like summit, it’s the most redditesque to me.

    I just use the web version, works best for me. That being said, I do like Voyager and Jerboa.

  • Surprised that I haven’t seen it posted already, but connect feels like joey for reddit. Tried the other app people are talking about, but at least for me, connect feels the most intuitive.

    i use Summit, it’s good, are others better ? no idea and haven’t needed to change because Summit’s good I used Jerboa way back when it was the only option. Have a paid copy of Boost which is also good.

    This is very subjective. What I did? Install ALL THE CLIENTS, login to each. Use them for a bit, try out the features you think you’ll be doing the most. Feel out what each of them do best. Keep the one(s) you like best. 👍 Best of luck!
