Been browsing in my browser while I wait for sync for Lemmy. Honestly the browser experience isn’t terrible but I feel like an app will probably make the whole Lemmy experience smoother with transitioning between instances.
So far wefwef has been my favorite. It’s a web app and has to be downloaded through Safari or Chrome, but it was made by the developer of Apollo and is very similar the overall experience of using that. Liftoff is a close second.
I second wefwef. Strikingly similar to Apollo and nearly as feature rich. I find it a bit less stable, and needing frequent updates. I haven’t watched as many videos and noticed some links fail to work (though that may have more to do with the fediverse).
RIF user for 13 years, currently using Liftoff which is really slick. Not exactly the same but it’s close. Also liked jerboa but liftoff is my current lemmy app.
There’s actually several apps! Some of my top contenders are jerboa, liftoff, and summit.
Liftoff and summit are very similar to RiF, to me it’s deciding what I like more. Liftoff UI is slightly more polished, but it’s got some distracting bugs regarding upvotes. Summit feels more like the RiF replacement honestly, you can collapse comments by pressing a karot next to the username and it’s more “fat finger” friendly.
Jerboa is also good, but it feels like a different experience. That may be a good thing if the goal is to kill your old RiF habits
Any luck with RIF or a similar app for Lemmy? Someone(s) develop that tool and Reddit is toast
Those are the ones that come to mind
RiF fanatic here. Neither mirrors directly. But Jerboa wasn’t bad. And I find I like Connect the best.
Yeah former RIF user here too, and so far Connect is the best I’ve found
Try Summit. It feels pretty similar to RiF.
Schweet, ty!
Boost, Slide and Sync are all coming to Lemmy. Lots of other great apps, too, though - I’ve recently been using Thunder and Connect.
Here’s a Lemmy Apps Directory with 27 apps for Lemmy.

Can’t wait for Sync
I came from RedditSync and the app developer LJ Dawson is making a Lemmy Client. I am using Connect for Lemmy right now

Jeroba is a good start instead of using a browser. It’s probably gonna take a while to get it streamlined.

Is wedged made by the same dev as Apollo? I thought it was someone new.
It is someone new. Wefwef is made by Alexander Harsing.

You can install via Firefox also

I tried Jerboa but it kept telling me to log in every 5 seconds so I got rid of it. Hopefully they get it working.
Check out Liftoff, it’s my current primary and it’s pretty sweet.
Thanks I’ll give it a shot!

Check out Thunder! It’s still a work in progress but it’s my favorite so far.
I’m using Liftoff, and it’s pretty good
