Now that Sync and Infinity are out, which do people prefer? Also, how do they compare to the existing lemmy apps?

I have about 5 different apps installed right now, and while I plan to test them all out, curious what people's conclusions are thus far.

  • I use Sync because it's just what I'm used to. I've been using it for more than 3 years, but I've also used Jerboa, Thunder, Liftoff, Lemotiff, Connect and Voyager.

    Here's what I think about those:

    Jerboa is good, maybe a bit laggy and things take a bit to load, but overall good. Nothing that stands out.

    Thunder is very good, but I've been unable to reply DMs and comments from my notifications, I'd have to go to the browser or use another app to reply. I'm almost sure it'll get fixed in the future.

    Connect is very, very good, but, and it's a huge BUT for me, every time I'm commenting and I want to change part of my comment, I click on the part I want to add or erase more text but instead of doing that it selects the text from where I was to where I clicked, and it happens with every comment and DM, to fix it I have to copy the whole thing, go back to the post, paste the comment again and keep on writing. I stopped using it.

    Liftoff is very good, but I don't like that when I collapse a comment it says "comment collapsed, tap to expand" (that's it, it's just nit picking, everything else is good), I still sometimes use the app.

    Lemotiff I can't log in but the idea/design is good.

    Voyager is one of the best but sometimes it jumps to random parts of the timeline, I also prefer having an app not a PAW (or was it PWA? I don't remember the correct term)

    Lemmur says my instance doesn't exist so I can't even try it.

    Haven't used infinity or Boost yet, just downloaded Sync and it just works perfectly.
