What is the best app to browse Lemmy

I currently use Blorp

I heard Jerboa is also good which one are you using? Best if app is available on fdroid

    Not sure if it’s available on F-Droid or not, but I’ve been using Summit lately and absolutely loving it. Blorp was my previous favourite, but I prefer the bit more modern and clean UI of Summit.

    I did try Jerboa about a year ago when I first tried Lemmy, but quickly dropped it due to UI/UX issues I was experiencing at the time, but I would personally just stick with Blorp if it was between them.

    Voyager was another I tried previously. Earlier I tried on my other phone (HMD Skyline) and consistently had performance issues with the app (long load times, occasional crashing, janky scroll). When I got my S25 I thought this would be solved with the more powerful device, and while it was much better than before, I still had performance issues.

    Hope this helps a little!

      Blorp dev here. Just out of curiosity did you not see the same performance issues (e.g. scroll) with Blorp that you saw with voyager? I’m using similar technologies to voyager, so this would be helpful in informing future decisions I make.

        Hi! No not at all, at least for me on both devices (Skyline and S25) Blorp ran great! If I get bored of Summit I’ll immediately return to Blorp ☺️
