As a new Lemmy user, I'm curious where most people use it from - Is it web, mobile, desktop app?

I'm using Photon and it looks pretty good. At least better than the default web one.

iOS voyager webapp

It works very smoothly, it’s very efficient and without it I wouldn’t browse lemmy as often.

Before I discovered lemmy I was using apollo for Reddit which was exactly what voyager is today. I think the apollo dev allowed voyager to use the code base of Apollo

Mobile Voyager user here too. I’m mostly pretty happy with it, as it reminds me a lot of Apollo. It would be nice if keywords and link domains I’ve blocked were sorted alphabetically instead of by block date, and if crossposts from communities I’ve blocked were also themselves blocked.

I don’t think I’ve signed into the web version in months, if not at least a year.

I have too many apps on my phone so I haven't looked for a mobile version. Using it from web on both phone and desktop.

Summit for Android. It's good and fast. I've tried some web apps, but I always return to Summit.

I use a web browser on my android tablet 99% of the time. I don't believe in installing many apps to access something a web browser does just fine especially with a limited amount of storage.

Welcome!

I'm using fedia.io (mbin) via my web browser on all platforms.

Mobile, voyager. Almost always. Though as a community mod Voyager has some weird quirks and I find myself having to resolve some weird cases via desktop.

[–] i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 hours ago

Voyager on phone for regular use. Then once in a while I log in on the desktop browser to save all my Star Trek memes and dump them on my company Slack.

It looks pretty good everywhere I’ve seen it. It’s a leg up from old Reddit, which was plain but stood the test of time.

Connect on Android but I am logged in from the desktop if I want to post game screenshots.

[–] unitedwithme@lemmy.today 1 points 1 hour ago

I use Lemmy from the ~~toilet~~ sorry, I mean I'm on Voyager (F-Droid) on LineageOS!
