Reddit is removing the Direct Message feature, and all active conversations will be archived so you won’t be able to continue ongoing conversations. Reddit also deleted all bad reviews for their app awhile ago. Its rating went from 3.4 to 4.5 stars overnight.
I just went and checked, and the reddit app has a 4.7 star rating on Google play store, yet when you go read the reviews, they’re all 1 or 2 stars.
The official Reddit app is an exercise in travesty. Any third party client for either Android or iOS in the past was better the official solution is even now. It’s slow, bloated and UI looks like it’s designed for toddlers in mind.
Do you have a favorite app for Lemmy? I’m using Voyager and like it. ☺️
I am on Boost. It’s a one time purchase for Android Atleast. The dev is same behind Boost for Reddit(now deprecated) and it implements a similar UI as the previous Reddit Client.
Of course, as you said, there are many FOSS solutions as well. I have heard good praise for Voyager and I think Atleast couple of more clients like Jerboa also exist on F-Droid.
I’m also on voyager !
I used several when first starting out here, but kept coming back to voyager.
I’ve just been using the site in my browser for the couple of years or so I’ve been on Lemmy. I’ve thought about trying one of the apps but meh. The web interface is so well mobile-optimized as it is
