I'm new to Lemmy. I've been on Mastodon for a while. I tend to access social media on the web and by app. I use Fedilab for Mastodon and I am comfortable with it.

What apps should I consider for Lemmy? I'm android, btw.

Thanks!

Thank you. Jerboa isn't working for me, it instantly crashes. Installed from both f.droid and the play store. Seems to be a common problem. I also tried lemmur and it couldn't find this instance. I'll keep looking.

The fact that it's actually working places it above the alternatives.

Hey, I got Liftoff to work. Happy days.

i might have a workaround for this, depending on why it's happening for you. v0.0.35 is too new for blahaj, currently, so i tried v0.0.34 on f-droid, but hit the same wall as you

the crashes seem to relate to jerboa trying to load whatever its default instance is, so i turned off my data and wifi, and opened jerboa, navigating to the add account screen.

after i'd added in my credentials, i quickly turned on data/wifi on my phone and submutted the form, and now i'm logged in and jerboa works like a charm

idk if it'll work for you, but it might be worth a shot

Still crashing, but I got Liftoff to work.

Thanks! I saw that workaround but was too tired last night. I'll give it a go.

Jeraboa hasn't been working on Beehaw for me due to Beehaw sticking to a slightly outdated version of Lemmy, I'm using Connect for Lemmy and it's pretty good.

I just started using Connect for Lemmy since it's the only other Lemmy client that came up when I searched the play store. it's not great, but I think functionaly a bit better than jerboa? but really rough overall.

I just discovered wefwef, and it's my favorite so far (even tho it's just a webapp). It's just like Apollo on iOS.
