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.

+1 for wefwef. coming from rif, does take getting used to, but it's nice, clean and simple.

Is wefwef and Android app? I don't see it on the play store.

Okay I figured it out myself. I went to wefwef.app in Firefox on my phone. The hit the three dot menu and went to install. That's it. Guess it's just a single page app run through the browser.

No it's a website but if you navigate to it in Chrome you should be able to go into the wefwef settings and "install" it. Then it will practically work like an app

Edit: or any other browser you use. I used Firefox first but the site didn't run as smooth there
