Currently using phtn.app for browsing lemmy, though it’s a bit buggy on mobile. V2 will be coming soon so hopefully most bugs will be fixed.

What y’all using?

[–] cronenthal@discuss.tchncs.de 17 points 3 days ago

Voyager on android, im perfectly happy with it.

[–] Today@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Jerboa. Tried several and liked it best.

[–] mesamunefire@piefed.social 3 points 3 days ago

That's the one I like. Or piefeds mobile on Firefox.

I tried it but I have one beef with it: once logged in, my subscribed communities are no longer appearing and i have to resubbscribe to all of them. I did it once on phtn and wouldn't want to do it all over again as I'm hopping around lemmy apps.

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Wait, aren't community subscriptions synced with your account?

[–] balssh@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

I thought so, but at least in Voyagger iOS after I logged in I had no subscriptions. I didn't bother to double check for now as I'm quite happy with phtn.

LE: reinstalled voyager and now I have my subscriptions linked with my account. Looks dope too.

Boost for Lemmy on Android.

[–] JayGray91@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Thunder. I used to use Sync for reddit before, and used it a bit for Lemmy. But I like thunder a bit more.

I also use Interstellar for mbin.

[–] balssh@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Interesting. Is mbin the same as kbin or?

[–] JayGray91@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

From what I understand, it's a fork of kbin. when kbin dev went silent and didn't trust anybody else to help them, a few other devs forked it.

[–] balssh@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

And what do you think of it? What’s the general feeling? I remember being hyped about kbin then there were lots of problems with the site, then dev disappeared.

[–] JayGray91@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 days ago

Idk it doesn't really feel different NGL

I haven't been using both Lemmy and mbin that long, just lurking mostly

And for that I don't have any problems

And the same way I used reddit, both I use for mobile. So apps make or break it. And the choice of Lemmy apps outshine the only app for mbin. Interstellar is good for mbin, but I just like thunder and sync more for myself.

I picked mbin for the combined threads posting like reddit and microblogging like twitter/masto but have to day I don't try to take advantage of that

On the other hand I'm looking forward to piefed maturing more. Since they have multireddit / combined topic community feeds

[–] cabinet_sanchez@midwest.social 5 points 3 days ago (3 children)

I'm using my web browser (on mobile)! I know I'm not the only one, but that's usually pretty unpopular. I've never been big on social media, but I've never used an app for any of them I have used in the past, including Reddit. Website with ad blockers for me, screw those guys. Here, though, I might give in eventually and try an app...

[–] balssh@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago

Phtn.app is actually a website/selfhosted interface for lemmy. The mobile PWA is a big buggy, but the desktop one works fine.

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

I also just use the web interface and it is so simple and excellent to use. I will never use an app for this.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Idk why people want to use apps to begin with. They love to be hacked or spyed on? I just don't get it.

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 days ago

Tesseract on desktop and mobile.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I’m using Mlem as I think it looks the best!

[–] balssh@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago

Will look on it too, heard about it back in 2023 but never tried it.

[–] ButtDrugs@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago

Connect for Lemmy. Super under- rated.

[–] DieserTypMatthias@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 days ago

Eternity on phone, Lemmy as a PWA on my tablet and official Lemmy site on my laptop and on desktop.

Summit for Lemmy

I was using Sync since the

spoilerreddit
exodus and basically moved with it, but it's not been updated for a while so I tried out a few others but was always turned off by their different gestures so I never switched.

However when I tried out Summit it had the right theming and gestures to be comfortable coming from Sync, along with an excellent unique screenshot tool that I've come to rely on.

I will try out phtn.app as an alternative on desktop since I don't browse Lemmy much outside of the apps.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

A mobile browser for phone a desktop browser for desktop.

Idk why anybody would actually want a third party app that is so insecure.
