    Thunder! It is

    • FOSS
    • Cross-platform (Android/iOS and you can even build for desktop or web)
    • Has some neat features that I haven’t seen in other clients, like a really customizable FAB, material you theming, multiple anonymous instances, ping time and version info for instances, supports 0.19 including new features like instance blocking, an advanced share that can create a microblog style image to share posts
    • Very good accessibility
    • and lots more.

    Coming from Relay for Reddit, I feel very at home in Thunder!

        Out of curiosity, can you give an example of this? I would think the “real identity” of people on Lemmy wouldn’t matter nearly as much as on a people-focused platform like Mastodon or Twitter/X. Plus, icons can be faked and there’s no concept of a verified identity, so the username is the best indicator of identity anyway.

          For example, it is pretty important to realize the post you are reading is from c/theonion, and the most effective way is to see the community picture on top of the post.

          Also I find in general more image makes the UI more vibrant and inviting for me.
