I need your opinion and suggestions on the best Lemmy client to use.
P.S., I currently use Voyager as my client.
I really enjoy Sync.
I was using Voyager until Sync got ported over to Lemmy. Voyager is great, but I find Sync more responsive. I also really appreciate Sync’s appearance customization. I’m old, so I like cranking the size of some text.
I think there’s an ad supported version of Sync if you want to try it. I paid the CDN$10 or whatever it cost on release. It’s worth it to me.
I also really like sync. I also paid for the ad free version.
But there are still some issues and the dev is, again, inactive.
Yeah. As much as I like Sync, I’m envious of aeharding’s constant improvements to Voyager.
yep. i lived Avelon until development stopped, and Voyager passed it up. the continued development is the long term play. my only problem with voyager is it doesnt let you come back to where you left off. i leave the app to google up something before i post it and when i go to return the post has vanished.
i want non-volatile Voyager.

I’m on iOS and Voyager has many customizations and the ability to change text sizes. I’ve never noticed any issues with responsiveness.
Is this another one of those “well I was on Android and used sync vs well I was iOS and used AlienBlue / Apollo ” comments? Perhaps androids Voyager not as good as the iOS version? I guess it depends on what OP is using for mobile.
Welp, I’m on voyager too lol
Voyager is definitely the most polished and great for those who used Apollo for Reddit. It is also very actively developed. For the Android users who do not mind the iOS aesthetic, Voyager is one of the few Lemmy clients on F-Droid.
Thunder is also a great option. I personally prefer its UX more than Voyager, but it is not quite as polished.
Mlem is a lot better than Voyager. Better features, faster, has fewer errors messages. At least for me.
I loved Apollo and appreciate Voyager but it doesn’t respect hiding read posts very well so I turned to Mlem which is now my favorite. The v2 beta is even better, adding easy markdown formatting and some nicer UI enhancements (the vote counter scrolling up or down on vote is a nice touch).
I had the opposite. Mlem always felt “in progress” and voyager was like walking into a polished experience. Voyager was the app respecting “read” posts.
No one here using Jerboa??
Thunder. Special mention to Arctic for its ability to embed and play gifs/videos in-app.
