    Not a native app, but i’m using the wefwef web app, and it’s pretty awesome and getting multiple updates a day.

    It’s a web based clone of Apollo

      Wefwef looks nice and I really want to like it but I keep tapping the back button and getting sent all the way back to my communities list, and therefore losing my spot in the scroll. It’s getting old really fast.

      Sync and Boost are indeed outstanding, just like they were on Reddit. My two favourites, no doubt about it

      I’ve been using Sync for a couple of hours and already uninstalled Liftoff and Connect hahaha. Don’t get me wrong they’re both great, but Sync is that much better

    New Lemmy user here. I have two points of improvement I’d like to note, but am not sure where the actual ‘responsibility’ lies.

    1. It would be great to be able to mass-block communities from lists, rather than tiresomely do them one -at-a-time from ‘All’.

    It would also be useful to see the list for subscribing, as I don’t know what’s out there until I see it. Sometimes I can’t think of something to search for until I see it.

    Perhaps this lies more with individual apps/ clients rather than the Lemmy ecosystem…?

    1. May I suggest that communities entirely consisting of bots re-posting Reddit links is, uh, unhelpful?

    Anyone?

    Could we get a new pinned comment for this. Some of this is our of date now and it would be nice to discuss.

    Apps, interfaces, browser extensions, scripts

      We could - but we’re still getting comments here. Why not continue to use this thread and sort by new?

      Also - this topic doesn’t even really belong in Asklemmy per the rules. If anything, I’m more inclined to unpin it and return to dealing with posts as needed.

    Liftoff, at least It was the best for me at the time when sync came out. I tried everything back then, but I should do it again

    2 months later and there’s still not a satisfying answer. I would have hoped 1 or 2 apps would have risen to the top by now, but it’s still just a scattershot of people suggesting like 8-10 different ones. There’s no consensus.

    I don’t want to download an app and get all set up only for development on it to suddenly halt. Then I’d either have to switch again, or be stuck with one that’s forever missing features.

    Too many new apps popped up in too short of time. Some of them are bound to fail or be abandoned. Some of them are likely to have been hacked together by amateurs and contain gaping security or functionality flaws.

    Does anyone have a suggestion with more substance than “I like this app because it’s the one I downloaded”?
