Blorp, it has Lemmy and piefed, looks nice, and the logo is really good
I just use the web UI. It scales really well on mobile.
Im using my computer
Sync for Lemmy
Am I the only one using Connect?
Am I out of touch?
No, it's the lemmings who are wrong.
I'm with you. Connect is great
Reddit is Fun into Connect. Never looked back.
Sync, until it dies.
Jerboa was the smallest one I could find on F-Droid. The lack of post search sucksssss but that's probably a sign that I should get home and onto my computer regardless.
I just access it via the Firefox browser. Mostly because I'm tired of everything wanting to have its own app which turns out to just be a more colourful container to load the webpage (my tinfoil hat hypothesis is that they do it to bypass adblocks). And the other reason is that I couldn't find anything I need to do on Lemmy that I'm not just as able to do from the browser.
Voyager.
Voyager
I tried Voyager and Interstellar but Blorp for whatever reason was the only one with a UI that felt right to me.
Boost and Connect are my favorites for Lemmy.
Boost and Voyager for me.
We asked about this in our census and got the following results:

Cool, I thought Eternity was much lower
Interesting, thanks for the info!
Nice it seems Voyager is a clear winner!
Blorp for me
Same here. Blorp was the first result when looking up Lemmy on the Google Play Store and I've had 0 issues since.
Blorp dev here. Let me know if there is anything I can do to make the app better for you!
I used to use Boost for Reddit back then and switched over to Boost for Lemmy initially. Nowadays I use Voyager as the UI is better IMO.
I use browser, never really had a reason to switch
I'm using Voyager because Star Trek.
Works very well except for one problem, it doesn't remember the last thread or community I was on I switch apps and android kills in background.
It's particularly annoying when I follow a link and when I come back to comment on it Voyager is back on Home and the thread lost forever.
Or when I'm in the middle to writing a comment but want to quickly fact check something but when I come back I get a message saying that my comment was saved, nice. But still can't go back to the thread I was to finish it.
Apart from that I'm satisfied with it.
Jerboa
Firefox on mobile. I make the website an app. It works.
Summit wins out
Also on summit. Not only is it a really nice to use app in general, it also has the best mod tools that I've seen in any app so far.
Im on summit now and its ok. I wish sync was still in development.
After using thunder I haven't felt the need to try anything else since.
Irreally really like you Voyager. It's inspired by Reddit Sync, the GOAT
I'm still using Sync (for Lemmy) but I'll need to check Voyager out, since it seems Sync is now abandoned.
I love Sync. A beautiful app that served me for a full decade. But now, Sync charges way too much for a subscription and access to features that used to be free or came with a one-time purchase. And yes, it appears abandoned, so why would subscribe?
Sync also had a bunch of customizations that I had to do for each account. Very tedious and the settings menus and options themselves weren't implemented as well as they could have been.
Voyager was exactly what I needed. It's very close the Sync experience while also its own thing. I'm very happy with it. If only they'd change the logo
Voyager for me. The compact mode is fairly compact, with small enough thumbnails that it can feel text-first. The few others that support piefed have had huge images with no easy way to fix that.
I've been using Boost simply because it's what I used to use for reddit and it does what I want
