What client do Android users use for Lemmy these days? I've been using Jerboa from the start but it's a bit basic and lacks any good search functionality. So I want to try some others. What do other Android users recommend?

Things I like about Jerboa:

  • It just works. It's pretty simple.
  • It has actual private browsing in app. You never have to leave the app and it knows how to never save your history.
  • It can do the above even when setting your main browser to Firefox (so as blocking works even in open links in app).

Things I don't like about Jerboa:

  • Text entry is oftentimes buggy.
  • Lack of any decent search for communities or in threads.
  • No draft capability.

I'm still using Sync (for Lemmy) but I'll need to check Voyager out, since it seems Sync is now abandoned.

    I love Sync. A beautiful app that served me for a full decade. But now, Sync charges way too much for a subscription and access to features that used to be free or came with a one-time purchase. And yes, it appears abandoned, so why would subscribe?

    Sync also had a bunch of customizations that I had to do for each account. Very tedious and the settings menus and options themselves weren't implemented as well as they could have been.

    Voyager was exactly what I needed. It's very close the Sync experience while also its own thing. I'm very happy with it. If only they'd change the logo
