Voyager, mostly because it’s similar to Apollo, a very popular app for Reddit, in many ways. As I was an Apollo user, it is nice to have some of the features replicated.

Mlem. There isn't really a main reason. I like it because:

• It's native SwiftUI, so it feels super snappy and "Apple-y" the same way Apollo used to
• It's FOSS (though that's sort of table stakes around here)
• The widget customizer thingy on the beta build is absolutely fantastic
• It's not ugly. There are a bunch of apps that just sorta aped the Apollo UI without any of the attention to detail
• I have a ton of faith in the stability of the dev team. There was a bunch of drama early in its development and I was pretty sure the project was going to die, but it didn't and it's been (as far as I can tell) smooth ever since

My only gripes are that the scrolling is still sometimes funky on the beta build and development isn't the fastest, but once all the apps are in their fully-built stable state I think Mlem is absolutely going to stand out among the crowd.

I settled on Memmy early on as the least buggy app, but I like Voyager quite a bit as well. I might switch if they let me change the color of upvote/downvote arrows to what my brain expects.

Avelon. A native iOS app with a decently active developer. Has all features i would expect from a Lemmy app at this point.

I also tried Voyager, but it seemed a bit off to me.

Here is a shameless plug for my own Lemmy app Arctic. It’s a fully native pure Swift based app built with performance and content presentation in mind. It’s packed full of features, and more are being added all the time.

Voyager. Looks like Apollo.

Voyager, I like that I can have an app to browse Lemmy that’s the same on Android & iOS

I use the firefox web browser app because I refuse to download more apps. I have the ones I have. I’m not getting more.

Thunder. Unique design that stands out among a sea of Apollo clones. Special mention to Arctic because it can embed and scrub videos/gifs without opening the in-app browser.

I’ve tried about 5-6 different ones and they all try to replicate Apollo. Memmy is probably the best of them in my opinion but none of them are as good as narwhal was for Reddit. I don’t understand the fascination for Apollo. Why we need 6 different Lemmy apps that are all very similar doesn’t make sense to me.

I use Voyager because it is very similar to Apollo. Also, you can self host it.

Bean. I just like the way it looks. Thunder is a close second.

I use Memmy, but I don't really like it. I might try Voyager looking at people's comments.

wefwef is good enough for my casual browsing.

Avelon for a very simple reason, it’s compact mode is slightly more compact than the others I’ve tried

Initially I used Mlem, but I found the scrolling to be not smooth, and I didn’t really like the design. Then I had Avelon for a while, which I would’ve still kept if it wasn’t for the fact you couldn’t off-load it and it took up a lot of data on my phone (2-3GB). Now I use Voyager and I really like it, I think I’ll stick with it for a while. You can customise it a bit, it looks like Apollo, it’s smooth, I’m able to off-load it. It’s great!
