When I write a pm to someone it sends that message to myself
Language of the interface is Polish (my first language) and I can't change it to english (at least on the version that I'm on rn)
Scrolling is very buggy (it stutters a lot)
Often when I want to make a comment it doesn't send it and I have to go to my pc an rewrite my comment to be able to send it
It doesn't play gifs on the feed by default, I have to open the image to play the gif
It doesn't play gifs in the comments at all and there's no way for me to play them
There are no embeds for videos (not sure if there's any mobile app that has that)
etc.

What I'm looking for:

An app with developed UI/UX
Obligatory dark mode
Something that resolves my problems with jerboa

Any recommendations or apps that I should follow the development of?

Connect for Lemmy.

I'm waiting for both Sync and Boost to come out with their Lemmy offerings and will probably end up with one of those. In the meantime, I'm trying Thunder and WefWef, but have also heard good things about Liftoff. Here is a list of the current (and upcoming) crop if you want to experiment: https://lemmy.world/post/465785

Been switching between Thunder, Liftoff and wefwef, so far I'm liking Liftoff the most, with wefwef coming in second. I used to use Boost for Reddit so now I'm waiting for Boost for Lemmy to drop so that I can finally switch from Reddit for good.

I use lemmy as a PWA. You can install it directly from your browser.

The last few releases of Jerboa have been atrocious. It's currently crashing when backing out of activities, voting, or commenting. I tried Thunder but the UI is extremely confusing for me.

I had to leave Jerboa as well (at least until they fix the crashing on launch) and I'm liking Thunder (available on fdroid and github they have a iOS version for the interested) with connect as second favourite (available on the playstore, not sure about iOS)

Thunder has one annoyance, they don't really have a profile tab, so you can't see saved posts on the app. And connect's post writing sometime glitches on me.

The latest Jerboa update does seem to have fixed that fyi

None of the current apps are amazing, but some are pretty useful already. I currently mostly use Liftoff or Connect. Jerboa is indeed way too buggy lately. I also have Thunder, Summit and Lemur, and I've signed up for Sync. I just checked out Thunder and it's also coming along nicely.

I would suggest to install a few and check them out every now and then. Basic functionality is there but time will tell which will get the most polished and which will suit you the most.

I know this wasn't asked, but the reddit is fun dev is making a Tildes app if you have an account there

I like Connect. It has it's own bugs though.

Using connect until boost is released

I'm using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.idunnololz.summit summit which is pretty nice except that I can't seem to find the settings, it does work well though.

I use WebApps from f-droid

[–] Progrockfan@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The first time I tried installing jerboa from f-droid I couldn't even open it. Then I installed jerboa from my browser and the problems haven't appeared again

[–] Martineski@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Had the same problem, I was spam tapping on the app while opening it each time and after some tries it started working and I haven't encountered the problem again lol.
