Thunder has been making me feel right at home relative to Reddit, personally! !thunder_app@lemmy.world

I do the Voyager. Can’t remember how I landed on it, but it works good
In my heart it’s still wefwef, complete with the little rainbow background lemmy.
I only remember switching to Voyager because I was having problems with images and other such things loading when I was using Jerboa when I first jumped ship to Lemmy.

Jerboa
Love jerboa. It was rough at first but the bugs got worked out pretty quick. Now it’s perfect, all the features I need and nothing that I dont
Thunder has become my main, has the least issues for me, been meaning to customize arctic since its a bit quicker being native. Thunder will sometimes take a bit to post a comment.
Hmm, I haven’t noticed any such delay. Hopefully that will get fixed.
Its prob because of my self hosted instance being iffy(goes down for a few seconds at a time because all of my cpus will go from 18% to 100% for a second sometimes, think friendica causes it), the other apps dont have issues reconnecting when it tweaks, thunder I usually have to force close a few times before it works again, thats more of a shoddyinstance issue with the app.
Firefox on all the platforms I use.
Same! “open in new tab”, history, and bookmarking are the big winners for me. I have Jerboa just to see what things look like on another platform tho.
Voyager, because it was the most mature and feature complete app available when I left Reddit and I don’t fancy switching again without good reason.
It was a bit of a learning curve initially, coming from RiF, but I’m used to it now and rarely encounter any issues.
Boost here.
I actually still use Boost for Reddit because it’s so incredible and unbeatable (especially for moderating), but I decided to lean more open-source otherwise.
Same, patched with ReVanced
Huh, what does patching it do?
Allow me to use Boost for Reddit after the API changes
Edit: or you probably mean Boost for Lemmy
You don’t need to patch it; you just need to be a mod of a subreddit. I’ve had no problem continuing with using regular Boost for Reddit post-API restriction, as a mod in various places.
It stopped working for me, so I just patched it instead of moderating a sub
Fair, whatever works!
I use Boost. I tried a few others, and wanted to pick an open source option, but I never found one with UI I was satisfied with.
Just saying, I’m a huge Boost fan (donated, even) and still use its Reddit app to this day. Thunder is marvelous.
Do not use Boost, it is tracking you and selling your data.
Use Jerboa or another trackingless alternative
The app clearly explains that there are two options: a free version with ads and tracking or a paid version with no tracking or ads. Myself and lots of other users are happy to pay the developer for their work, and enjoy Boost with zero tracking or data selling.
If you prefer other apps, or if you only use FOSS, then don’t use Boost. It is not and has never claimed to be FOSS. But for me, it’s a great app, and having tried 10+ other lemmy clients, I was happy to pay for Boost. I just much prefer the ui and don’t think it’s wrong to pay a few bucks to a developer who makes an app I like.
Summit. It’s the best
Agree, and I have tested a bunch of them so far. It’s just so clean!
Voyager on iOS, Firefox on PC
Voyager app in Android, vger.app on my laptop
Huh, didn’t know it has a web platform! Thanks for sharing.
Surprised I’m the first to say Eternity
@tal@lemmy.today mentioned it, so you’re the 2nd.
I just prefer to use something recent if possible; Eternity was last updated in August versus Thunder, just this month, in F-Droid. It looks probably fine, though.
Ah, I guess I didn’t read the full comment haha
Where’s your search bar, soldier?!
Not in eternity apparently!
Edit: actually I found it, apparently I don’t have very good attention to detail when scrolling lemmy
I’m also in voyager.
Just the web interface for me - it does everything I want, so I have an instance of Firefox on my phone dedicated to social media, with always open tabs for Lemmy, Discuit, Tildes and Pixelfed.
