Matter of opinion, of course.
That being said, connect is pretty much the best looking, and has been perfect in reliability for me.
Summit is equally reliable, but lacks in the ui department.
Eternity has a single killer feature, the ability to have double columns in portrait mode which makes it better on tablets, and has a good ui otherwise, but can be spotty with crashes gets and there.
Thunder is another that’s got double columns as an option, but it hates me and my devices. Almost impossible to log in, which is a major problem for me, but it isn’t something I’ve seen anyone else have happen. Great app overall, it’s just a fail for me in specific. The rest of the ui, though, kinda limited in options, but works fine.
That are the open source options that I’ve kept using after the initial boom of apps for lemmy. I have jerboa on a couple of devices, but it lacks a ton of features for my preferences, so it doesn’t stand out other than in reliability.
Lemmy is one of those cases where I keep hoping someone will do an app the way I want, but it’ll never happen because there just aren’t enough users with my use case. Tablet centric, dyslexic, old eyes, and a dislike of oled black themes. So I end up using sync more than anything else because the dual column layout is perfect, and I can fiddle with things enough to get near optimum contrasts between text, “cards”, and background, so that I can actually see what I’m doing and not have to fuck around trying to get around my issues instead of just enjoying lemmy.
If connect had dual column, it would be my main app of choice, though. It’s what I use on my phone, since one of the themes does work fairly well for me in that screen format.
Using connect too. There are a few issues, like regularly getting thrown back to a freshly loaded start screen with reset sorting instead of the previous position.
I still just like Jerboa. I used another one for a while, I forget which, but it stopped being upgraded. Jerboa has all the features I want, really.
i use voyager on ios. it’s like apollo but for lemmy
After trying multiple ones, Thunder (https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder) fits my needs best, the feed UI is my favourite specifically, they keep adding features (mod tools recently) and it’s the one I’ve stuck with the longest so far
Using Eternity on Android and the Alexandrite frontend on pc.
I like Voyager, but I sometimes also use Jerboa.
On my GrapheneOS phone I installed jerboa, thunder and Voyager. Jerboa crashes several times and is uninstalled now. Voyager is kind of overwhelming. 😉 (I am 61, this my first smartphone and my first contact to social networking… fingers crossed 😉)
Thunder is OK so far … I have no idea, whether it is limited or not…
In case of this post will not created: This is meant as an reply to all the friendly reactions I have received so far…😀
I used Jerboa at first. I quite liked it, but an update to Lemmy broke the client. After a while of waiting I switched to Voyager, and I haven’t had any issues since.
Usin boost rn. Simply because its familiar after using it for reddit. Ots got bugs but its nice

What do you mean, “voyager wasn’t going to be supported”?

I liked Lemmur’s interface. Currently I use Jerboa and it’s quite nice.

It is seem like random, but those client are good SEO so they pop up in search engine.
