Does anyone else use the android app Connect for Lemmy? It reminds me of Infinity for Reddit. If you use it, do you like it better than Jerboa? I also found another new Lemmy app called Liftoff.

This has to be the best looking Lemmy app I've used to far. Great job!

I used Infinity up until yesterday, it's going to be offered as a subscription app starting July 1. Connect is very similar, I like the way it works. I have Jerboa, haven't used it yet.

Wow. This app is really nice at first glance. I like the gesture to swipe left on a comment to upvote. Reminds me of Sync for Reddit!

I've been using in for a few days alongside with jerboa and I'm not sure which one I prefer yet, I really like both. I prefer jerboa look wise, but I like some of the little shortcuts connect has.

Connect comes up on duckduckgo tracking attempt block list, the only tracker is google so far, Jerboa has yet to show up.

I like the general look of Connect, but the dark mode needs some work. When I click through a web link to a WebView, the web page's background and text are both dark, making the article basically impossible to read.

Hi Connect dev here. I'll see what I can do about fixing that! Thank you for the feedback.

I want to thank whoever behind this app. It's getting better everyday.
