Brand new to the platform. Just wondering if I have to use my browser each time. Thanks. Ps. F reddit mods
Many of the third party Reddit apps switched to Lemmy when the API got locked down. I’m using Sync for Lemmy, but there’s plenty others.
I use voyager which I know is available on iOS. There’s a lot of android options as well.
I use Voyager on Android phone and iPad.
It’s not perfect, but it’s the least sucky Lemmy experience I’ve had so far.
Voyager is good in some ways but I think Mlem is better in a bunch more ways. I really dislike that in voyager when you are typing a comment you can’t pull down to see the thread or anything at all as it tries to delete your comment. Why in the world would I want to delete my comment by pulling down like that? So many apps do that, like YouTube.

Sync allows user tagging, but it’s a feature of the Ultra version since those tags are stored on sync’s private server. Ultra got a few other perks such as in-app translation, text extraction (from pictures / screenshots) etc., but it’s rather pricey.
That list is pretty outdated. A better resource for new users is https://www.lemmyapps.com/
I recommend trying a few of them out to see which one(s) you like:
- Connect
- Boost
- Jerboa
- Sync
I liked Jerboa, but after a lemmy upgrade, Jerboa took too long to support the new protocol, so I switched to Voyager. I would probably be using Jerboa again noe if there was a simple way of exporting my blocks et al. back to Jerboa.
