Coming from RIF, what is your favorite Lemmy app? (lemmy.world)

After saying goodbye to RIF and reddit, it's time for me to move on. So far I've used 4 apps for Lemmy and this is my personal ranking:

  1. wefwef.app. Very clean design, works well and smooth experience. Overall the best implementation so far.

  2. Connect/Liftoff (tied). Both are solid, I prefer Connect's sidebar and options but I prefer the design of the posts and comments on Liftoff. When the comments stack in Connect it looks awful IMO.

  3. Jerboa. As a first option it was good but after so many timeouts, other design issues and multiple errors I kinda gave up on the app. After its polished I'll give it another try.

I'm using Connect for Lemmy atm, it's not that bad. It's missing a decent amount of RiF features but give it time it might be a decent replacement. Atm I'm missing mostly collapsing comments and listing through the parent comments

Did you use it to post this comment 4 times? πŸ˜‚

Haha given the number of times that app keeps reposting the comment I’m not sure it’s a great selling point for quality.

That's somewhat my fault since it timed out and I kept pressing post. Server issues i guess. Give it time.

I doubt it's the application's fault. Not everyday your usebase grows by 1000% :)
