Apps?
I'm new to Lemmy. I've been on Mastodon for a while. I tend to access social media on the web and by app. I use Fedilab for Mastodon and I am comfortable with it.
What apps should I consider for Lemmy? I'm android, btw.
Thanks!

Jerboa is currently the most developed Android lemmy app.
Thank you. Jerboa isn't working for me, it instantly crashes. Installed from both f.droid and the play store. Seems to be a common problem. I also tried lemmur and it couldn't find this instance. I'll keep looking.
There's also the new lemmynade app. It's very new but I've heard good things thus far.
Hey, I got Liftoff to work. Happy days.
The fact that it's actually working places it above the alternatives.
i might have a workaround for this, depending on why it's happening for you. v0.0.35 is too new for blahaj, currently, so i tried v0.0.34 on f-droid, but hit the same wall as you
the crashes seem to relate to jerboa trying to load whatever its default instance is, so i turned off my data and wifi, and opened jerboa, navigating to the add account screen.
after i'd added in my credentials, i quickly turned on data/wifi on my phone and submutted the form, and now i'm logged in and jerboa works like a charm
idk if it'll work for you, but it might be worth a shot
Still crashing, but I got Liftoff to work.
Thanks! I saw that workaround but was too tired last night. I'll give it a go.
Jeraboa hasn't been working on Beehaw for me due to Beehaw sticking to a slightly outdated version of Lemmy, I'm using Connect for Lemmy and it's pretty good.
I just discovered wefwef, and it's my favorite so far (even tho it's just a webapp). It's just like Apollo on iOS.
I just started using Connect for Lemmy since it's the only other Lemmy client that came up when I searched the play store. it's not great, but I think functionaly a bit better than jerboa? but really rough overall.
If you used Sync for Reddit, there's a Sync for Lemmy in development. Personally I'm using Jerboa untill Sync is ready
probably late but wefwef
