What client do Android users use for Lemmy these days? I’ve been using Jerboa from the start but it’s a bit basic and lacks any good search functionality. So I want to try some others. What do other Android users recommend?
Things I like about Jerboa:
- It just works. It’s pretty simple.
- It has actual private browsing in app. You never have to leave the app and it knows how to never save your history.
- It can do the above even when setting your main browser to Firefox (so as blocking works even in open links in app).
Things I don’t like about Jerboa:
- Text entry is oftentimes buggy.
- Lack of any decent search for communities or in threads.
- No draft capability.


I’m quite happy with Thunder
I really enjoyed using Thunder but then found Summit, which offers one killer feature Thunder doesn’t have while covering everything that Thunder has:
Multi-communities!
I got several gaming-related communities grouped, all the selfhosting communities grouped and I just need to check those multi-communities instead of each community one by one.
Also Summit works a bit better for Piefed than Thunder, but I know that is work in progress, so no criticism there.
Me too. But it refuses to load images of a fraction of the posts and I don’t really know why. And cross linking to some other instances is occasionally borked, it tries and then opens the browser.
Apart from that it’s been fantastic
Same here, thunder refuses to load images seemingly randomly.
Another vote for Thunder, though I’m also kind of warming up to Summit.
