This is just a rant post about the shortage and quality of currently available Lemmy apps on Android… I started with Jerboa, and honestly was pleasantly surprised at its feature set. But it looks… off. I recently started using Connect. I myself (using another account) like to post content, particularly GIFs (hard G btw). Perhaps this issue is simply embedded into mobile apps for Lemmy in general, but I can see the GIFs on desktop just fine… And not on either mobile app. Keeping in mind the GIFs are hyperlinked, not attached. It all just feels sloppy.
Anyways, I can’t wait for Boost… It was the only reason I ever even got into Reddit. I hope it helps with some of these issues, although in my particular case, it may come down to how Lemmy handles gif/image links on mobile.
*Edited for grammar/spelling
Jerboa was unstable to the point of unusability when I first started using Lemmy but I’m checking it out again now and it seems to work at least. Not quite Boost though.
I’ve been using WefWef to tide me over but it’s not what I’m looking for and it’s missing a lot of stuff still.
EDIT: Jerboa is still extremely unstable and in addition to crashing it suddenly thought I was not logged in while refusing to let me log in. It’s the most Boost like interface but for now I’m sticking to WefWef and also trying Liftoff.
