They are okay and did the job until Sync came out. But are no way near as polished as Sync, which has years of updates and development.

No. As long as people keep using it I think it can grow enough that people can use Lemmy as their primary app. But it’ll never become mainstream enough.

We underestimate how technically ignorant the majority of people are, as soon as it hits the point of no official app and which instance to join people give up.

The only way I can see it working is it they prioritised their own official instance, made it default on an ‘official’ app so it’s just as easy as Reddit or Twitter, but in small text allow people to change instance.

I was using Jerboa, but recently moved to Thunder and enjoying it a lot more.

Although the Reddit Sync app Dev said he’s going to make Sync for Lemmy, so I’ll swap to that once it’s released.
