For the people coming in asking what app for Lemmy. You don't need it. Lemmy is great on a mobile browser.

The only reason why we all used third party apps for Reddit, is because their app and website is abhorrent trash. It’s great to have a choice, but Lemmy’s website is smooth to use. I know it’s mind blowing not to use a app for everything in 2023 but Lemmy just works.

Dude, most us left reddit because we loved our app. Apps are generally more refined than websites and offer better notification interaction.

It’s better than reddits mobile site but native apps always win if the dev puts in an effort to make it good.

I prefer apps either now just because Android is pretty bad about reloading pages when you switch back and forth between your browser.

Also once Boost for Lemmy comes out, it’ll be all I need.

Sorry but that’s not true at all. Lemmy’s UI feels very unfinished/amateur project like. Even the jerboa app, which is from one of the dev, improves the mobile UI experience greatly compared to just the web version.

For Mobile users buttons should usually be bigger. But e.g. the comment collapse button is very tiny and I need to concentrate to press it correctly on mobile.

Try wefwef.app. It’s a web app for mobile, the UI is based on the infamous Apollo app.
