I searched up “Lemmy” on the PlayStore and noticed that Reddit appears right before the last lemmy client in that search X3 do u guys know if there r any other lemmy clients worth trying? I randomly felt like trying all I could find and for now I’ll stay on Jerboa and the Web UI but I use Voyager too now, mainly for DMs

Edit: I apparently wasn’t clear enough but I was asking for OTHER clients that aren’t on this list X3 but feel free to share why u use an app in this list if u want anyway :3

        I searched it up and apparently it’s an F-Droid client? I already have F-Droid but tbf I do think it’s kinda ugly X3 but Droid-ify does look so good! ty for the suggestion :3

          F-droid is a service. They get submissions for building apps, some people gather the needed stuff and the app is build on their servers.

          Meanwhile app developers 90% of the time build their apps themselves, with their own signing key.

          The F-Droid app is outdated, use “F-droid basic” as weird as that sounds. That is build against modern libraries.

          But I use that app now only for searching for apps. You can add repos and you get new apps shown easily, then I open the app page and down under “source code” with a long press I copy the source code.

          That you can enter in obtainium and it downloads the official release of the Dev instead. Turn off everything automatic update/download in F-Droid.

          You can get every app through obtainum, also from external repos, but there you need the app ID and the repo URL which is hell of a pain, I use F-Droid basic here too.

          Obtainium is not ready at all, especially as it has no feed for the repos. But it works.

              What app? F-Droid basic has the best UI of all I think, just the search button is kinda random.

              Obtainium is okay but overcomplex without a reason, its core has a lot of potential though and with a feed and one-click installs it would be really good.
