Hi, pals. Thanks for the lovely welcome yesterday, I’ve missed my crew. Now I need to ask the old person question of: how the flippin flip do I use this thing? Is there an app or browser only? πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 10 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Hehe. I use a browser. I just leave it open in Chrome.

App on Apple - voyager

App on Android - sync

There are others, but these are the most polished

Hiii lemondrop 🌞, welcome. I've just used the web browser the whole time honestly. When I tried the jerboa app it was pretty janky. They made improvements though which I haven't tried because I've just gotten used to the browser version πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Jerboa is still janky, bit gets very slightly less janky every update

I use Jerboa for Android (available on the playstore), or the browser on my phone/pc. I find Jerboa to okay, it's updated often, but is still a bit janky as others have said.

The browser on my phone remembers my login, so that is an option as well.

Edit: also, Jerboa allows spoilers but you have to manually do the code for it, as the button isn't available yet. Whereas the browser versions you can highlight one's text and click the spoiler button to hide it.

I use a browser but I go through wefwef.app.

It’s ok but still lacking features and is a work in progress.

I haven't seen people mention Connect for Android. It's pretty decent! I don't use it on the browser. Try the app!

I use memmy on my iPhone, but it's a work in progress

Last I looked there were at least 7 apps for iPhone in various stages of development, I have settled on Liftoff! for the moment but have Voyager and Avelon as well.
