Hi fellow sync-ers,
Having joined Lemmy recently, I have been having a ton of fun. However accessing Lemmy through my mobile browser has been an awful experience, similar to my past Reddit experience till I found Sync.
I’m not sure how much longer I can tolerate the browser experience, and am hesitating jumping on a app. Where’s your head at about this?

I’ve been on Connect and has been 8/10 so far. Gonna dual use with liftoff after seeing the comments.
I did a 5 minute ctr+F to see which were the most popular apps/ interfaces. Not sorted by pos/neg, just mentions.
- wefwef/ voyager - 46
- connect - 43
- Liftoff - 33
- Jerboa - 23
- Thunder - 16
- Firefox - 13

Connect for now. It isn’t perfect but pretty good. Feed isn’t as smooth (images load in later kicks your scrolling up) and you can’t open links in it automatically.
My primary issue with Connect at the moment is it desperately needs a reduction in the amount of taps to do anything. It takes 3 to download an image, and 3 to subscribe to communities. Both of these are things I feel should be in the ellipsis menu of any post, but currently you have to click through to the post or community. Meanwhile there are a dozen things in there I rarely use absolut flooding the menu. I also wish it saved comment drafts, but that is relatively minor.
It just needs some reprioritizing of actions and it would be perfect IMO.
