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 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
