I tried one called Lemmur that I downloaded off F-Droid, however, it can not find this instance (lemmy.world). I want one that’s open-source, and preferably from F-Droid (because screw Google). Which one do you guys use?

Jerboa is by far the most feature-rich and least glitchy that I have used.

I’ve only used Jerboa so I can’t compare BUT it reminds me a lot of RIF which is what I’ve used for the last like 7+ years?

I had a lot of issues with Jerboa being buggy and randomly crashing personally, but that could’ve just been my experience. I switched to Connect for Lemmy and haven’t had any issues (and it looks better imo)

For me jerboa was the most buggy one I tried. I am using connect now and waiting for sync because that was my Reddit app.

I chose Jerboa because back at Reddit I was using an app called Joey. Just wanted to be consistent

Sony Xperia 1 III. Aside from server issues in the first few days this month with Lemmy the Jerboa app has been working well. Seems fairly close enough ish to RiF for me. Really probably has a lot more going on than RiF ever did. Some mild stuff to get used to but overall a good experience. Was happy to see the ability to change the post sizes to smaller so I can see more at a given time.

Yeah, Lemmy in general was buggy the first week of the mass migration from Reddit, but they seem to have that mostly resolved.
