Comment by Andromxda 🇺🇦🇵🇸🇹🇼@lemmy.dbzer0.com on what lemmy app do you recommend and why?

Thunder because I think it has the most features, the UI is designed pretty well and I like the user experience it offers. They are working on amazing new features like notifications over UnifiedPush and moderation tools (I think no other app has mod tools). It’s completely free and open-source and available on F-Droid via the IzzyOnDroid repository. And unlike Sync, it doesn’t have ads.

I recently also learned that it’s one of the few open-source (and still actively maintained and developed) Lemmy apps, which is quite sad. I don’t understand why so many folks use proprietary apps like Litoff, Summit, Connect, Boost or Sync. Sync is especially bad, because it has ads and trackers.

I tried Jerboa before I switched to Thunder and hated it, it just feels like an incomplete and buggy mess with poor UI/UX.
