What lemmy android app do you recommend? I have too many problems with jerboa. My problems with jerboa:

When I write a pm to someone it sends that message to myself
Language of the interface is Polish (my first language) and I can't change it to english (at least on the version that I'm on rn)
Scrolling is very buggy (it stutters a lot)
Often when I want to make a comment it doesn't send it and I have to go to my pc an rewrite my comment to be able to send it
It doesn't play gifs on the feed by default, I have to open the image to play the gif
It doesn't play gifs in the comments at all and there's no way for me to play them
There are no embeds for videos (not sure if there's any mobile app that has that)
etc.

What I'm looking for:

An app with developed UI/UX
Obligatory dark mode
Something that resolves my problems with jerboa

Any recommendations or apps that I should follow the development of?

I think it'll take some time until these apps become that andvanced. Most lemmy apps are in a pretty early stage of developement and still highly WIP.

Some third party reddit apps seem to be planning on moving to lemmy, so maybe we'll see something better coming around the corner in the near future.

Boost, my favorite one, didn't get updated for quite a while and got a nice update pushed out after the API changes were announced. Kind of heartbreaking to see that effort destroyed, but the dev has announced that boost for lemmy will be a thing. The UI of boost is one of the best I ever used, so I think that the lemmy version will be great even early in development.
