Hey everyone!
I’ve recently started exploring Lemmy and discovered there are at least seven or eight different apps, clients, and APIs out there that let you browse, post, and interact with Lemmy communities. With so many options, I’m a bit overwhelmed and would love your input on which one(s) you use and why.
A few things I’m curious about:
Platform support: Do you use a mobile app (Android/iOS) or a web-based interface?
Feature set: Which apps offer the best experience for browsing multiple instances, notifications, or advanced moderation tools?
Pros & cons: What do you like most (and least) about the client/API you use? Performance, UI design, stability, etc.
I’ve tried scanning GitHub and the official Lemmy docs, but it’s hard to tell which projects are actively maintained and which give the smoothest experience. If possible, I’d love to hear about:
-
Your favorite mobile app(s) for Lemmy (Android or iOS).
-
Any tips on connecting to multiple instances or switching between them seamlessly.
Feel free to drop links to the app/repo, a brief summary of why you like it. Thanks in advance for your suggestions—looking forward to finding the best tools to dive deeper into Lemmy!
I recently moved to Summit on android and have been very happy with it. It’s extremely customizable so I can configure it exactly as I wanted.
I used to use Infinity for reddit and someone forked it to replace all reddit references with lemmy references (called it Eternity). I loved that one but the dev kinda disappeared and abandoned it. I was able to configure Summit to be basically the same as Eternity, which I couldn’t really replicate in any of the other app choices.
I used Voyager for more than 1 year, I’m happy with it but I will try out summit because I like trying alternatives.
