minus-square@LaughingFox@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish21•1 year agoI started Lemmy with Jerboa, switched to Sync, tried Eternity (Infinity), un-installed immediately, and am now very happy using Voyager. So for me personally, Boost is a little late.
minus-square@shashi154263@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkEnglish11•edit-21 year agoVoyager is pretty good, but it has a lot of missing features. Not only that but it doesn’t behave as well as a native app, because it isn’t. It’s pretty smooth for a PWA, but still no match for a native app.
minus-square@aeharding@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish7•1 year agoWhat missing features are you looking for? Also worth noting that Voyager now has a native version on the App Store/Play Store that enables more features compared to the PWA version!
