Yay! This is hands down the best lemmy app so far.
Thunder might be better now with updates but when I sampled all the apps I settled on Liftoff as the best one.
Thunder is picking up momentum. We're not quite approaching feature parity, but there's more and more progress being shown off in the dev chat.
I think Thunder has the best design of all of the Android apps that I've tried. The only feature that is missing now that I've identified as personally wanting is being able to search Lemmy posts and comments (rather than just communities). I'm cool with being patient as more features are added, because overall, Thunder is so enjoyable to use.
Better search is on my list, so I'll eventually get to that unless someone else on the team does first. Working on sidebars atm.
I like Connect :)
I am using connect right now so they'll beg to tell me what's better about thunder
I agree. Love it and get serious RedReader vibes from it
I mean... It's like the second app for android, I think? Competition is not that fierce.
I count at least four: Thunder, Connect, Jerboa, Liftoff. Five, if you count Voyager (PWA).
There's also Slide, which is a fork of the old Reddit app. But, that's not very active. There's quite a few actually. There was a thread with a bunch linked but I don't remember where it was posted.
Edit: Found it!
And Summit
Voyager is straight up the best one rn imo
Just wish it were a native app, it lags a bit on my low end phone sometimes
Pinned Megathread here about all the apps that exist and are in developement !lemmyapps@lemmy.world
