Lemmy Apps Tierlist.

needs text; too oblivious to know minor differences in mouse shapes

I had to exit the app to confirm which one was wefwef.
Jerboa is not at B, it barely works
- Works fine for me -- posted from Jerboa
- Things have been updated since and it seems to finally work again for those of us it was broken for. Give it a shot! Or don't because for me scrolling is still laggy as hell lol.
- How is this being downvoted? Upvoted via Jerboa

Permanently Deleted

Im waiting for it.
- This is the first that I heard of it
  
  But me too
Anyone who hasn't already pre registred can do it here

I think Jerboa goes in the A tier. Liftoff would be easy S tier if only it had an easier way to view comment context (like Jerboa).

Too bad too, because I would agree if Jerboa didn't have so many bugs.
- The latest version (0.0.38) fixed the bugs for me. The previous one (0.0.37) was nearly unusable.
As a jerboa user myself, I'm pretty confident Jerboa is C or D tier at best. It has a very buggy UI, crashes very frequently and is a nightmare to post comments. I'll hold my beliefs until the devs fix those issues
I only tried the two inside fdroid, jerboa and that other one. On now and it seems fine but i don't have much to compare it to. Seeing as how this lemmy stuff is new to me and i only tried the two.

Edit: ACd Hernia, changed back to jerboa. Lol hernia
What issue are you having with comment context in Liftoff? Seems to work for me; I get it through Obtanium though so maybe it's an older version issue for you
- This is what i want. I can view comment context with just a click or two but it would be more convenient to just be able to view it from the inbox screen
Liftoff added that, although the UI is a bit clunky
Liftoff! is super snappy, but I can’t get used to the UI, to me it seems like it lacks attention to detail on the visuals part of the app.

Edit: I just figured out why it looks so strange to me: the app is very Material Design-y, so it feels outta place on iOS.
The other big issue with Liftoff is that you can't search for communities outside of your own instance without first adding the instance said community is hosted on. Unless someone can correct me on that.

You should write a big "MY" at the beginning of the title.

It's weird that Thunder, most polished Lemmy app, is not even on the list

I agree. Since joining the beta, I’ve exclusively used Thunder. I never encounter errors or load issues and comments are posted without issues.

Every other app seems to have problems. Started with Memmy and wefwef but I couldn’t handle all the loading errors.
- Memmy has been improving very quickly.
Why does Thunder, the most polished app, not simply eat the other five?
I forgot about it
It has some niceities missing like how many unreas replies you have. But it's much better UI wise than Jerboa and actually marks posts as read unlike Liftoff. (Will make an issue when I get around to it)
- Which app do you use to mark post as read automatically?

You missed Thunder

Since no one is posting it, here are the names of each of these apps:

S tier
- Wefwef
- Lemmy (not an app, just use Lemmy on your mobile's web browser)
A tier
- Connect for Lemmy (Android only)
- Liftoff (Android, Windows, Linux, MacOS, and iOS (TestFlight))
B tier
- Jerboa (Android only)
C tier
- Summit (Android only)
- ~~(I don't know the second C-tier app)~~ Lemmynade (this is the old name for Liftoff (thanks aDogCalledSport@lemmy.zip))
D tier
- Lemmotif (Android | iOS (Testflight))

The second C tier is Lemmynade but thats just the old name for Liftoff so Im not sure why its its own thing here
- Thanks! I've made the correction. No idea how to ping you like on Reddit.
The other one in C tier is lemmur. Discontinued.

Now I need the names for the S tiers

Wefwef and simply Lemmy but as a webapp
- Wefwef would be s for me as well but toasts block the bottom part of the screen and can't be dismissed. Trying to read comment replies and getting blocked by a message that tells me I'm looking at comment replies...
- My dumbass just searched for “simply lemmy” thinking that is the name of a 3rd party web app.

I'm using Jerboa and eagerly awaiting Sync for Lemmy. Haven't had the motivation to try anything else yet.

I would put Jerboa above LiftOff and Connect, because I like the UI more

Agreed, feels better executed to me personally

Jerboa is A or S tier for me. Sure it used to crash alot, but now it's silky smooth, doesn't crash anymore and everything just works.

Where is Memmy? I’d put that A tier probably. Good but not as good as wefwef.

I dont use IOS so I cant speak for IOS apps
- Then maybe don’t make such a list. lol.

Missed Thunder, Jerboa deserves better.

I have tried many of them in the last 2 weeks: thunder, jerboa, connect, liftoff but now I'm loving wefwef. Still waiting for sync, tho.

I will jump ship from Liftoff the second Sync is back

For me Jerboa is S tier just because os available on the F-Droid store (and its works)

Thunder is the best. I try the other 8 apps I have but keep going back to thunder. It's so much better.

Started with Jerboa, tried Connect but that didn't feel right for me. Now I'm back to Jerboa (sometimes using Liftoff but mostly Jerboa), waiting till Boost is released

I've tried Jerboa. It feel basic but seems to be the inky one that actually shows decent search results when searching for communities. But it have a simple UI which is nice to me.

Wefwef. I hated it, but I am an android user who use to use RiF, this is nothing like it and it put me off. I can only fit like 2 post on the screen when scrolling. Way too much wated space

Liftoff. Don't like the UI, feels like everything is a little too big. There is too much wasted space again.

Connect for Lemmy. This is my go to and daily driver now. Its so quite similar to RiF if you tweek some of the settings. Can fit way more posts onto my screen at once. Has more customisation/functionality then Jerboa.
- Have you tried Thunder?

Try Jerboa again if you had trouble. The last couple updates were huge leaps forward

Not sure what those apps are. S Tier both kinda look like Memmy? (It’s the only one I know).

I guess I should try wefwef. Connect has been working nearly perfectly for me for the last week or so and the dev keeps adding new features. I think I might be loyal already.

What are the two in S tier?

Wefwef (rainbow) and Memmy (black)

Where is mlem on this list

I'm loving wefwef but have two gripes

It seems to get laggy with prolonged use (Firefox on android)
The way pressing Posts/Inbox/Account/Search operate like tabs where you have to back back back to the main screen

Hard agree. This is what I concluded from my research also.

Yes but Liftoff is usable on low end devices

I like the rat.

I am loving wefwef as my desktop web ui for Lemmy. Reminds me so much of Apollo (RIP).

mlmym.org S tier

As much as it reminds me of the good old days of old.reddit I don't want to perpetuate that UI. I stuck with old.reddit to the end because new reddit was so awful, not because old.reddit is good

Lemmotif is SS tier and I will fight anyone on this.

Connect on my ancient Galaxy Tab S2 refuses to connect to aussie.zone. It complains about the cert

Add Memmy to S tier
