Just curious. I’m hearing that a lot of people are using various apps with Lemmy but I’m having such a good experience with the browser version that I don’t understand the point of adding an additional layer via an app in between my access to the service. I’d love to hear people’s opinions about the pros and/or cons to using an app vs. the browser. [EDIT] I should specify that 90% of my usage is on my phone.

    An app has more customisation settings to make using it on the phone easier for example text size. Navigation is also easier, Jerboa for example allows me to navigate from top-level comment to top-level comment with my volume buttons. Also I hate how on the mobile site (and the desktop site as well) I lose my position in the feed when viewing a thread.

    PS: I also can’t wait to have Sync for Lemmy since Jerboa is not running as smooth as Sync was.
