Bump for Voyager

[–] TheGoldenGod@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Tried almost all of them on iOS, but sticking with Arctic. The dev makes constant updates and responds to user feedback fast.

I like Voyager. It’s just like Apollo. Fuck spez.

I know it hasn't been updated for a while, but sync just works

I went through a couple when I first arrived, eventually landed on Connect and haven't had any reason to switch since. solid app for my browsing

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 months ago

Jerboa. It's not the most functional but it reminds me of RIF the most.

I switch to Sync any time I need to use the search function

[–] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 months ago

Thunder on Android is great.

I've used Connect the most. Also tried Jerboa and Voyager.

The reason is that I prefer a tiny list view with thumbnails on the right, just like old.reddit used to look and RiF could be made to look. I left Reddit due to this. When they cut off 3rd party apps like RiF, there was really no good way to view the site (in my opinion). Connect simply has the settings to make it look and behave exactly how I want it. I think Voyager can be made pretty close too. Jerboa was kind of buggy when I tried it.

I'm sure things have improved in all the apps during the last year, but I've stuck with Connect because it's both stable and flexible enough. It gets frequent updates and issues are fixed quickly. I reported a bug once and the developer got it fixed within hours.

[–] Dreamless4561@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 months ago

I’m on Voyager right now cause it’s like Apollo

[–] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 months ago

I just made the switch from Sync to Summit literally yesterday. Sync was fine for a while but it hadn't been updated in ages (basically since the first major reddit migration wave) and it was starting to suffer as Lemmy incremented a few version numbers and Sync did not. Besides which I was paying a yearly subscription fee for an app that failed to load 2/3 of image posts.

If Sync gets an update I might still recommend it. It's a good app, it just needs maintenance. In the meantime Summit does everything I wanted out of Sync, has an active developer with a Lemmy account, and doesn't cost me money. I think it looks better too but that's personal preference.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 months ago

I'm still using jerboa, I really like how simple it is.

but I haven't tried the others because when I joined there weren't really any others, so I'm not sure if I can call it my favorite?

jerboa is my favorite so far.

[–] Novi@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Eternity, I just wish it was updated more frequently.

Edit: I can't spell.

[–] UKFilmNerd@feddit.uk -1 points 3 months ago

BIG shout out to Thunder, a great app for both Android and iOS.

It's really nice to use, lots of nice features, I'm really happy with it.

[–] umbraroze@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago

Voyager.

Used Sync, but it's not maintained. Liked Connect a lot. But, well, if the platform is open source, why not use an open source client too? Switched to Voyager and I've been very happy with it, actually.

[–] MrMcGasion@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago

Boost. It was my preferred Reddit client back before spez Elon-ed Reddit, so when the Lemmy version released, I purchased it to thank the dev for putting in the work to support Lemmy. It made my move to Lemmy super smooth.

I also use Voyager on occasion.
