Afaik I've used ALL the lemmy apps on android. Connect is by far the best. It was kinda neck and neck with thunder and infinity for a bit, but the 1.0+ release implemented some amazing features, while still keeping the most functionality and managing to avoid the "scroll stuttering" that plagues other apps. Infinity (now eternity) is also good but account switching is more difficult and you can't block instances or communities from theain page like you can on connect. Example fo why that's lame - say you're scrolling by all and theres a bunch of gay/furry/anytypeofpornyoudontwanttosee...on many apps you have to GO to that communities main page just to block it. On connect you just tap the three dots menu and pick which you want to do. Easy peasy.
I've tried a handful of the Android apps and so far the most comfortable one for me is Liftoff. But I loved Boost for Reddit, so I'm very much looking forward to trying the Lemmy version.
I've tried most of the apps, and I used to think Liftoff was "inspired by" Boost, with the name and rocket and all, plus it was the only one that vaguely felt like Boost to me.
Yeah imagine wanting to stand by your work and say, I did this! Being proud. Better release some sketchy ass half done app and lose all your community to w/e is already released. He wants to do this right. Probably not his intent to sure take his time sometimes. Save this comment for when you have been waiting for 20 minutes at McDonalds.
You can order 15 Big Macs and wait for Boost, or buy Sync. It's up to you.
