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.


Summit wins out
Agreed, I’ve tried all the ones mentioned so far and some others but Summit is the only one that doesn’t have annoyances and drawbacks for what I want.
Im on summit now and its ok. I wish sync was still in development.
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.
Like most people, I’ve tried many apps, and chose summit because, in addition to it having everything I’m looking for in an app, it doesn’t eat my battery like the other apps. Thunder was good, but it drained my battery so fast, it was just crazy.
Agreed. I just wish they would get the PieFed post combining happening so we didn’t see the same article posted four times in a row. The PieFed PWA does it right. Might be an API issue though.
Agree on that
