On Android, former Relay for Reddit user.

Right now I have SEVEN lemmy apps on my home screen as I figure out which I like best. So far I keep going back to Sync the most.

Boost's animations suck. It takes too long to show the post list after swiping away an image and the whole screen goes black, it's a bit jarring.

Liftoff works well but it's ugly.

Jerboa isn't very customizable and the post list doesn't feel dense enough.

Voyager literally does not tell you what instance the community you're viewing is on.

I haven't touched Thunder in a while but I see they've updated quite a bit with a lot more customization. I remember older versions being nice, so I'll give it a try again.

Connect is about the same as Liftoff, works well but kinda ugly. Admittedly not as ugly though.

That issue with Boost may be device dependent. It is only a split second of black for me on an S23. But, i agree it should just be better no matter the device.

For Voyager, there is a setting to show the instance.

I found the setting for showing a user's instance, but still no setting for showing the instance of communities.

If there’s no @, it’s local.

Could probably add an option to configure. The idea to not include the instance url if local was to cut down on noise in the UI.

Yes it does. If there no @lemmy.instance attached to the community then that is because the community is on the same instance as your account.
