It’s my main lemmy client. Can’t recommend it enough. It’s not the most impressive client in terms of fancy features but it’s the most intuitive one I found.
I am a big Thunder fan as it reminds me a lot of RedReader from my reddit days.
Thunder is great, I love it
I can hide posts! My primary way of browsing Reddit and no lemmy client has had it. I’m so happy with that feature alone.
Works on Sync, it’s not FOSS tho
Is there a way to change those horrible Apple inspired icons and make it in general less Apple like? The Apple UI is just really badly made.
I think the UI itself is OK, but it feels very unnatural on an android device.
yes, there is a setting for that in the options, but the UI still looks very much like an iOS app with it changed.
Yeah the Android version is still on beta and not pleasant.

- no parent comment function or “context”
- some comment threads won’t expand
These are the only ones that really pester me. I try other clients, but keep coming back to Voyager.

I like both. But lean towards eternity as I like the search function more.
I use this for mobile and desktop! Thanks for the quick updates devs!
Those who have used both Voyager and Jerboa, which do you prefer and why?
Jerboa has one open bug that makes it very annoying for me (Issue 194). Thats why I don’t use it anymore. However, this bug does not affect everyone.
Voyager and Liftoff are my favourite apps for Lemmy.
@cron I’m sorry but I read that bug report you linked. Is that really your most annoying issue?!?! Lmfao everyone is such a fucking pussy now a days.
It is the only issue I had with jerboa, and that makes it the most annoying issue by definition.
But if I have the choice which app to use (and luckily, we have a few options), then I’ll pick the one that works best for me.
I swapped to Voyager a while ago and never looked back. I tried Jerboa, Liftoff, Sync, and Connect and Voyager just felt the best. The only feature I miss from the reddit app I used to use is swiping from left to right to go from the comments of a post back to the homepage I was on, but everything else is great.
I use Jerboa mainly, but sometimes use Voyager. I like better the Jerboa UI usually, but sometimes I want a change. Also I know you can enable buttons rather than swipe gestures for comments on Voyager, but in Jerboa it’s easier and nicer.
I’m a RedReader user so I really missed the swipe gestures for voting. It also has a web app version that I can install both on mpbile and PC. While I’m not a fan of iOS look, I’m not a fan of Material You either.
I didn’t like Voyager initially, mostly because it felt weird having iOS style on my Android device. The Android theme didn’t seem that different too me either. But I’m actually using it now and think it works great and don’t even mind the iOS styling anymore either!
I feel the same. Even the icons is Apple’s! But Voyager is my main Lemmy client because despite it goes after Apple’s guide lines and not Google’s (which is wrong and I find the developers as very lazy because of this), it is a very nice client.

Voyager is the only Lemmy client I’ve tried that has an Apple Watch app! It is so nice to just review some headlines for a minute and save the interesting ones for later.
On my phone though I’ve been using Memmy more recently too.
Had not heard about it, but thanks for posting about it. Trying it out now, so far so good.
My use of Lemmy has increased since I got the Voyager app. It’s the spiritual successor to Apollo (RIP) and Apollo was the most used app on my phone by far. Great look!
I started using Lemmy because of Voyager. it’s pretty good
Same. Just this morning actually. And here I was thinking I was done with social media after the Reddit API debacle. So far Lemmy scratches that same itch for me.
Can I make the font bigger ? I can’t see properly so I need really big font. I am using connect atm but I want to try other clients.
Font options are in settings -> appearance
Cheers bro
You can. I’ve just downloaded it, and I can say for sure: this is now my main Lemmy app. Was using eternity, but this just seems more intuitive.
