I started off using Voyager, swapped to Mlem because of slight differences I preferred. Recently found out Thunder for Lemmy is available on the apple appstore and it instantly became my favorite. I like how unique the ui is compared to other, it seems better suited for browsing and posting on Lemmy, while the others feel better for the initial transition from Reddit. Very suprised it has barely any downloads or reviews when its easily the best Lemmy app on IOS.

Thunder reminds me of the more "modern" alternative front ends for lemmy some sites have while mlem and voyager feel more like the alternative reddit apps (blue alien) and give a similar experience.

On desktop, I've been using Friendica.

Currently using Arctic for iOS. I was using Voyager for a while, but the Arctic dev (devs?) are so good about bug fixes and adding new features, I had to switch.

I have to get around to customizing it, thunder is mostly solid, a bit laggy sometimes, arctic is prob a better move on ios, I just wanted to get used to it, since piefed is forking thunder for their ios app and that will probably be my main eventually. Arctic is definitely more optimized for ios and the fastest I've used.

Voyager on ios.

Lemmy on desktop, though it has issues. Logs me out when opening a post, seems to occasionally roll me back a page too far when backing out of a post, and the UI can be scrolled out of sight on firefox.

Im liking phtn app so far, tesseract is also nice for desktop

Still exploring but why I like Voyager over Mlem is that Voyager can load embeds where Mlem doesn’t seem to have that option. I don’t like to have to tap to see content.

Mlem testflight supports it, but its a bit buggy I couldn't make posts without crashing, havent checked the most recent update tho

What's wrong with using your site? Like, in a browser, on the web?

Do people know their phones can do that?

Also like to seperate content, I already have 10 tab groups with 100s of tabs, my web browser is used for browsing the web not accessing one link aggregator, I even use different apps for different topics/accounts

Doesn't feel good, a proper app is usually superior (i like max features/customizability),I do like progressive web apps
