Now that the Reddit exodus is about a year old and the client apps have matured, what’s the latest state of the above question?
What app do you use and why? I’m mainly interested in Android but suggestions for other platforms are also welcome. And if you are using multiple platforms, what’s your primary one?
Thunder. It feels most similar to what I used back when I was still using Reddit.
I haven’t really played around with anything else since Sync for Lemmy was released, because I’m perfectly happy with it.
I used Memmy up until development stopped and now use Voyager. It feels the most like Apollo did so it’s got my vote for best app
Thank you for pointing this out! I was using Memmy because it was first on the App Store but have since switched back to Mlem (which I did beta for). It is a hell of a lot more fresh on features!
I’ve been using Eternity for probably nine of these months
I’m on Boost after trying a lot of them. On my backup phone there’s Raccoon
I use Jerboa. It’s fine. It’s the only one I’ve tried though.
I tried a lot of them when the reddit exodus was new I settled on voyager and alexandrite. Voyager has a great app (which is just the web page converted to an app) alexandrite doesn’t have an app but it’s has the best experience for me.
Android user.
I used Liftoff until it broke with the API change a couple months back. The Dev has been AFK looking after twin kids. Hope they are going well.
Tried Thunder for a while but it kept crashing or forgetting what post I was looking at when switching between apps.
Using Voyager now and I am quite happy with it. I miss the All servers you have accounts with feed view from Liftoff but that is not a biggie.
Basically same. I also tried sync and another one that I can’t remember but I stayed with Voyager
Yeah, once Liftoff stopped working, I switched to Boost.
I use boost and voyager
I’m using Mlem, and it’s worked good so far
I still use Eternity, but unfortunately it seems like development stopped. Still the best IMO.

Jerboa
Using it since it’s the app from a lemmy dev.
It’s decent for my use.
Tho, some option simulating the multireddit option would be good. But it might be becoming a feature request for lemmy than a lemmy app there.Does it save drafts yet? That was my reason to switch to boost.
Lost too many typed comments to this.
Don’t know about Jerboa, but Thunder has been saving drafts for a while now.
Sync. Customizable, pretty, working without issues, dev keeps on updating. Really good app…
Boost is also great.
In the beginning, it was a mix of LiftOff! and Jerboa. The dev of LiftOff! had twins and understandably, he hasn’t returned and the app has fallen to the wayside.
So I tried Thunder (available on Android and iOS) and it’s been really good, lots of regular updates and features as well.
The website’s been updated, so we can link to that now.
