      I only remember switching to Voyager because I was having problems with images and other such things loading when I was using Jerboa when I first jumped ship to Lemmy.

    Thunder has become my main, has the least issues for me, been meaning to customize arctic since its a bit quicker being native. Thunder will sometimes take a bit to post a comment.

        Its prob because of my self hosted instance being iffy(goes down for a few seconds at a time because all of my cpus will go from 18% to 100% for a second sometimes, think friendica causes it), the other apps dont have issues reconnecting when it tweaks, thunder I usually have to force close a few times before it works again, thats more of a shoddyinstance issue with the app.

      Same! “open in new tab”, history, and bookmarking are the big winners for me. I have Jerboa just to see what things look like on another platform tho.

    Voyager, because it was the most mature and feature complete app available when I left Reddit and I don’t fancy switching again without good reason.

    It was a bit of a learning curve initially, coming from RiF, but I’m used to it now and rarely encounter any issues.

      I actually still use Boost for Reddit because it’s so incredible and unbeatable (especially for moderating), but I decided to lean more open-source otherwise.

            Allow me to use Boost for Reddit after the API changes

            Edit: or you probably mean Boost for Lemmy

              You don’t need to patch it; you just need to be a mod of a subreddit. I’ve had no problem continuing with using regular Boost for Reddit post-API restriction, as a mod in various places.

    I use Boost. I tried a few others, and wanted to pick an open source option, but I never found one with UI I was satisfied with.

      Do not use Boost, it is tracking you and selling your data.

      Use Jerboa or another trackingless alternative

        The app clearly explains that there are two options: a free version with ads and tracking or a paid version with no tracking or ads. Myself and lots of other users are happy to pay the developer for their work, and enjoy Boost with zero tracking or data selling.

        If you prefer other apps, or if you only use FOSS, then don’t use Boost. It is not and has never claimed to be FOSS. But for me, it’s a great app, and having tried 10+ other lemmy clients, I was happy to pay for Boost. I just much prefer the ui and don’t think it’s wrong to pay a few bucks to a developer who makes an app I like.

      @[email protected] mentioned it, so you’re the 2nd.

      I just prefer to use something recent if possible; Eternity was last updated in August versus Thunder, just this month, in F-Droid. It looks probably fine, though.
