It’s the same as with Linux, GIMP, LibreOffice or OnlyOffice. Some people are so used to their routines that they expect everything to work the same and get easily pissed when not.

Have you tried Liftoff? I think it’s the best one so far for Android.
Liftoff is what I’m using and probably what I’ll stick with until Boost or Sync for Lemmy is released. Hell, I might stick with it even after that. Development is progressing quickly and it’s the smoothest out of any of the apps I’ve tried.
I’m personally waiting for Slide for Lemmy to be released
I am also waiting, but for Boost for Lemmy.
In the meantime wefwef works well.
Wefwef is too Apple-esque for my tastes.
They are working on an Android theme. Yes, it looks weird, but works well.
I keep switching between Liftoff and Connect because they both have some issues that are resolved in the other.
Connect seems to work better with showing all federated content than Liftoff, but Liftoff allows multiple instances to be logged in at once. Connect has notifications, and Liftoff does not. Liftoff has more user-centered features like actual profile pages that show a background image, bio, and avatar; connect does not.
Neither one have any tools for moderation, though. I am now a mod for Humor (BTW, come post! Let’s make it better than /r/funny ever was!) and I’ve only been able to do actual mod things on the website itself, which is tedious to do on mobile.
I still can’t figure out why I can upvote posts in Memmy but not in Liftoff. I’m Liftoff it keeps responding that I need to be logged into the server but Memmy just lets me upvote. It’s definitely something I am doing wrong but showcases the immense value of app choice.
Probably due to the version of Lemmy on the server. I think it’s because Memmy works with 0.17 but Liftoff doesn’t (fully).
The Lemmy devs made some fundamental changes in how just about everything works in 0.18. Since a lot of apps started development right around 0.18 came out they might not support “the new way” just yet.
It’s another one of those things where you just have to “give it time”. The Lemmy server operators need to upgrade (many were holding off because of missing CAPTCHA support in 0.18) and the app developers still have a lot of kinks to work out. Liftoff has only been out for what? A week now? LOL
Odd, I haven’t had this issue at all. Upvoting works just fine for me in Liftoff.
I made a post on the Liftoff community precisely because it renders it unusable if I cannot interact with (almost) anything that’s shown to me
I’m currently rotating between liftoff and summit. Slide is what I can’t wait for. I was an avid slide for reddit user for years.
I haven’t. I’ll have to check it out while I wait for Sync
Edit: idk if it’s my instance or not but Liftoff absolutely does not want to work. It’s super slow, won’t load, crashes constantly, I tap or try to scroll and nothing happens for about 30 sec to a min then it’ll finally do what I tapped on or it will crash. Not sure what I’m doing wrong lol

Have you checked that you’re browsing from your instance? Liftoff has different feeds for different instances and if you go to a post through an instance you don’t have an account on, you won’t be able to vote.
Just go to the homepage and select the feed from the drop-down at the top on an instance you have an account in. I used to face the same problem until I realised what’s going wrong.

Unfortunately they marked that as 18+ in Google Play store so the download button is disabled, at least in my ‘normal’ UK Google account.
