    I tried about five different android apps and LiftOff was the one I picked. Looks the best, runs smooth, nice interface, fast with updates. Love it.

      Same. Connect is much cleaner in my opinion. Still has some clunkiness and I don’t like that touching the screen on images closes the image, but overall it’s a great start.

    I was going to say that I loved it, but right now it’s no longer showing me posts on my subscribed account on lemmy.world.

    So I’m currently on my backup app, voyager.

    I switched to Liftoff from Jerboa.

    There are a few features that either don’t exist or I haven’t found (jump to next comments thread), but it’s worked really well overall.

    For context, I use Relay when I’m on Reddit

    Would be nice if there was an option in the settings to turn on the ability to see upvote and downvote counts for every post and comment. It’s pretty much the only reason I keep going back to Jerboa. I really like being able to see the amount of downvotes something might’ve gotten.

      Create issue on GitHub (look for similar issues before). Liftoff has ftiendly developers.

      Does lift off have the feature to highlight a comment and then hit a button to go directly to the next parent level comment?

        kind of. It has “view context”, which doesn’t show the parent, but it also has “more context”, which will. So between the two you can get what you’re looking for in 2 clicks

    The main issue I’m having with liftoff is that I cannot upvote or comment posts from other instances with my lemmy.ml account, so I’m still using jerboa

      It is kinda bad UI decision, not a bug. You should login into your account on some instance and choose through which instance you get content on the top of the screen. After that you will not have problems with commenting. Same thing with search, under search rectangle choose your instance! ❤️

      This should not be a problem with LiftOff. I can upvote and comment on posts from any instance. Have you tried the most recent update?

        I can upvote and comment on posts from any instance.

        I mean you can if you have multiple subscription or if you do it through your main instance, but that’s a feature all clients have and I think they do it in a more intuitive way, conpared to LiftOff

        Have you tried the most recent update?

        Yes, I’m on v0.10.7

          In that case, I don’t know what you mean. I only have one account on one instance and I can seamlessly interact with posts from other instances.

    It’s my favorite of the options so far, I wish I wouldn’t default to lemmy.world, but that may be pilot error…

    I keep bouncing between this one and Jerboa. I like Liftoff a little more, as it’s easier to handle multiple instances and accounts, but I wish that it had mod tools so I wouldn’t have to go my communities in the browser or PC to do anything mod related.

    It’s pretty nice, definitely prettier than jerboa. I still haven’t found an app that will let me swipe between post comment sections like Joey (for reddit) could. Heck, even the official reddit app could do it, it’s like the only feature it had that all of the 3rd party apps don’t. Once I find an app that can do that, I’ll probably stick with it

    I don’t like the way it has a different color than the status bar. Looks jarring and incomplete.

        It’s not really a color problem. It’s the fact that the gray in the app is not the same shade as the gray in the status bar. Jerboa and other apps make it so seamless, it turns me off in Liftoff. Waiting for Sync/Boost for Lemmy.

    This is awesome work. I wish posts had a thumbnail on the left or right to give you a snippet of the topic similar to the RIF app. I’d not then it mainly feels like a lot of words and read which is not horrible but the experience is slightly lessened and cluttered.
