Mlem. I miss Apollo dearly, and used Voyager for a bit, but while it's faithfully aped the UI you can feel that it's mobile in a way I just can't stand--it's sludgy and just subtly off. Mlem is snappy and feels at home on an iPhone in the same way Apollo did, even if it's still a little rough around the edges.

Thunder
Voyager
I use the progressive web app version and it's all I need. the only thing i dont like is that you can no longer pull down on a post to refresh the comments. some time ago this worked but it doesn't anymore.
Right now itβs Bean. I like the clean look of the app.
Does it get tons of data from you though?
Not to my knowledge. Someone asked the dev about privacy awhile back. Iβm including an image with the devβs response to that. But Iβm no expert here.
Voyager doesn't collect any data though
Thunder is my go to app.
do any of the lemmy apps handle hexbears emotes well yet?? if not, Iβll stick to the good olβ firefox
spoilered emoji you can expand to test if a mobile app handles emotes well yet
Well, the spoiler tags work in Connect, but the emojis did not. The emojis work in Liftoff and Sync, but the spoiler tags did not. Both worked in the Voyager/pwa. (This is one of the things I use 4 apps because of.)

Periodically try different ones cos I am a man-child but have settled on Voyager for a long time now and always come back to it.
That's probably why I have 4 installed rn - because you're a man-child (j/k, obviously it's because I'm a ...lady-child?)

I love that happy wee face on the ascii art you have there!
It was mlmym but then mlmym.org shut down. Too bad lemmy.ml doesn't run it under the old.lemmy.ml like some other instances do. I don't want to move instances and lose my history to get it back and I don't want to trust random third party ones. Maybe I should self host it at some point.
I downloaded Jerboa during the Reddit exodus, was the first Lemmy app I downloaded and I still use it. Never had any kind of problem!
