Now that the Reddit exodus is about a year old and the client apps have matured, what’s the latest state of the above question?

What app do you use and why? I’m mainly interested in Android but suggestions for other platforms are also welcome. And if you are using multiple platforms, what’s your primary one?

    I am fully on the Sync train. It does get a lot of hate here because it’s not FOSS, but it was the best app around for Reddit, and the dev converted it for Lemmy. It’s so far above and beyond everything else that I’m happy to pay for it. There’s a free version with ads, and there’s the expensive paid upgrade ($20). The dev regularly disappears for months, but when he surfaces, he’ll roll out a massive amount of bug fixes and features.

    Android user.

    I used Liftoff until it broke with the API change a couple months back. The Dev has been AFK looking after twin kids. Hope they are going well.

    Tried Thunder for a while but it kept crashing or forgetting what post I was looking at when switching between apps.

    Using Voyager now and I am quite happy with it. I miss the All servers you have accounts with feed view from Liftoff but that is not a biggie.

    I tried a lot of them when the reddit exodus was new I settled on voyager and alexandrite. Voyager has a great app (which is just the web page converted to an app) alexandrite doesn’t have an app but it’s has the best experience for me.

    Early on I tried out other apps and they looked snappier and had many features but none I used.

    Jerboa though has always worked and by default everything works exactly as I want and expect. So for me it can’t be beaten.

      Jerboa went though a period time relatively early on in it’s development when it was a buggy, nearly unusable mess. It started out cool, then it shit the bed, and now I guess it’s cool again lol.

      Unfortunately I didn’t wait for it to get good again at the time and I ended up switching to wefwef, which has now been renamed Voyager. Voyager never really went though a buggy period on my end as an Android user.
