I deleted RIF on Monday and went to Reddit today via mobile and it was such a pain in the ass as soon as I shut it off I instinctively hit the Jerboa icon (I intentionally put it where RIF was on my homescreen).
Also the Jerboa app is getting better almost daily.
The official reddit app has actually made significant improvements to their mod tools in the last month, but holy fuck, it should not have taken this long. It still has a long way to go, and the app as a whole sucks balls. But I’m not planning on modding any longer, so, I don’t really care any more, I guess.
Running the Memmy update today with dark mode and I had moments where my brain thought I was scrolling through Apollo. Gonna be very happy with the app if it continues down this route.
I wish Lemmur was still being developed. It looked pretty clean and was built on Flutter, but the devs stopped working on it in February due to lack of interest and political differences (I guess referring to the tankie Lemmy devs). I was thinking of making my own Lemmy app with Flutter for fun. If I do, I’ll probably write the UI myself but fork and use the dart API library from Lemmur for the backend stuff. Jerboa is nice, but I’d prefer more of a native Android looking app, kinda like Sync.
Same brother. Same. I’m actually surprised how good the Jerboa app works. I thought it be way crappy since everything now is scrambling to get away from reddit and catching mass exoduses is a hard thing to do. But it’s smooth as soft serve ice cream. I think that’s why Lemmy might work. It’s not a single break, it’s more like an ABS and it’s kinda magical (to me) how you can go and discover new communities. If one instance breaks you can always go to another one and it works almost the same atleast on a technical level.

I wish iOS has an app like Jerboa :( Mlem misses so many features unfortunately…
I’ve been using Memmy since it became available yesterday and it looks promising so far. It’s already had about 4 updates just today:

making the ui more like googles material style you mean? for that flutter would be a great option
