Honesty, I am tired of accidentally hitting “back” on my phone and having my feed reset, so I was wondering if any of your clients didn’t do that, while also wanting to check out the competition for Sync.
Voyager works like a charm for me.
Yup. I use the PWA so I don’t even need to install it. Wish this was more widespread.
PWA?
Progressive web app
Eternity
Boost for Lemmy
Jerboa on mobile, the website on desktop.
Jerboa. Made by the Lemmy devs.
Boost for Lemmy since Boost for Reddit was my old app

Just Sync
Fun fact. If you search up reddit on android bar sync comes up.
The app is just called sync what used to be Sync for Lemmy. It still says sync for Lemmy on the play store, I’m not sure if that hasn’t been updated or it’s the official name still.
Voyager
+1 for Voyager. It’s my first and so far only client that I’ve used, having been on infinity for reddit before switching.
I like it. it’s smooth, works well, and has fairly granular settings for how to handle “read” posts, gesture controls within posts / comments, and so on.
do you have issues with redgifs? they don’t work for me on Voyager
I don’t have issues with redgifs. I thought I recalled a setting similar to media player defaults but I can’t find it, so I must’ve been thinking of infinity for reddit.
does it have anything to do with default browser, I wonder? I’m on grapheneOS with vanadium as my browser.
Voyager, foss, with the auto hide enabled
Auto Hide?
Settings > General > Marking read / hiding
Tah. Hadn’t seen that before.
Voyager here, can’t complain.
Connect for lemmy,
Back button asks if you want to exit the app
Looks just like RIF
Seconded
No love for Summit here? I’ve tried almost every android app and ended up with this one. Very smooth UI and full of features.
I swapped from Sync to Summit and have been loving it. The dev’s super responsive too, which is a big plus.
Plus Summit works with piefed
I came here to say this too, I use voyager but just recently I learned about summit which has fully community moderation abilities
summit is great
Blorp is incredible !
Feature requests are welcome!
And from my friends in the Zip team
Boost
Called “Boost for Lemmy”. It’s great. All kinds of custom options. Integration with instances are really good.
Try it… give a dollar… It’ll be Ad free.
It’s closed-source 🤮
Eww
Blah, blah, blah… one Dev. Get a grip.
The dev being alone does not mean they should make it closed source.
For example, Mindustry, which is an open source game, is only developed by one person, Anuke.
And, who knows tf they doing behind the scenes?
That’s why i HATE anything closed-source. Making a software open-source does not have any downsides, it’s free contributions from more experienced people. And it also means people can fork your project if you just can’t do it anymore. Or want to improve it.
it’s not as easy to monetize open-source software, and even solo devs gotta eat.
until UBI gets implemented worldwide, expect people to continue wanting monetary returns on their work.
Meh, I’ve used his app for many years now from when it was for the other shit site.
From my experience trying other apps. Boost is best. I’ll take top quality v. whiny wanker.
Simple Mobile Tools were open source and made by a single dev and then he decided to sell everything to a shady company.
That dev is a traitor.
I used boost for reddit back when that was a thing. The dev got the lemmy up in like a week, very impressive to me. I give $5 every now and then when I feel like it and remember. I’d recommend the app for sure
Only issue is embed videos don’t work rn, I’m currently trying out summit and really like it so far, pressing back does reset your feed to the top though, which is annoying
