I’ve tried a few but none give me the same super functional feeling RIF gave me. Jerboa isn’t bad which is what I’m using now but I’d like something a little closer to RIF. Any suggestions?
Liftoff is working pretty well for me. Supports multiple accounts, fairly intuitive UX.
+1, Liftoff is pretty good. I’m a Sync user and decently happy with Liftoff while I wait
Agreed, the ability to seamlessly switch between which instance you’re viewing from and which account to use is really cool. It makes me wish I had a desktop client with that option (which probably exists honestly, I’m just not aware of one)
I tried Jerboa and Connect but having most success with wefwef. They all work fine but wefwef just feels most familiar.
What is the difference between Jerboa and wefwef? I have seen wef been suggested a lot and like most people I don’t like change. So why would I want to switch to wefwef? Is it more stable or something?
I’m using Connect for Lemmy right now. While it has a card node, you can switch to list.
It’'s still not a perfect equivalent, but it kinda… gets close, I guess? 🤷
I’m using Memmy at the moment. It was heavily inspired by Apollo for Reddit (which I used) so I’m happy enough. There are a couple issues still (it’s still hinder development) but as long as you ignore errors when posting and don’t try to resubmit it seems pretty stable to me.
It says it’s on Android too but I don’t see anywhere to download the Android version.
I poked through the code some. They have some instructions to build the code for Android but I didn’t see any built apks. They still have it marked as prerelease, so they may just be focusing on iOS for now.
Have you checked out wefwef.app? It’s a browser based app (type it into your browser and then add it as an “app” on your homescreen), which I don’t normally like, but it functions fairly well. It doesn’t quite look like RIF and instead has more of an iOS look to it…but it is also more “bare bones” in appearance than other Lemmy apps seem to be. So it’s simple look reminds me of RIF in a way.
So far I’ve only tried out a few apps tho personally. I’m still hunting for my daily driver as well.
Edit: It does have some missing functionalities but the devs seem quick to add new features
I like this a lot I just wish it was an actual app and not something I have to go into a browser for. If it gets ported onto the play store or something I’d consider it.
You can install the PWA and it’ll be exactly like an app
How does this work on Android? I already tried this before and it did nothing.
Edit: Nevermind I tried it on chrome and it worked. Firefox wasn’t working.
It’s basically a pixel perfect copy of Apollo
Seconded wefwef.app. Super cool that it’s a PWA. I was both a big time RiF and Apollo user and this definitely scratches that itch
Jerboa, set to list view in the top right menu is super close, IMO.
As a former RIF user, I agree, but it’s been less stable than other apps lately, so I’ve started to use some other apps (mostly conneci) more
Slightly off-topic. I was a RIF user but switched to RedReader, which still works, and can be just as minimal.
I come from RIF too. I tried jerboa but I’m using thunder with compact view now
I’d say check out connect and liftoff
Tried liftoff earlier but it seems to lock me out of certain instances I know aren’t defederated. Otherwise I’d like it. Maybe I’ll try it again when it’s got some more dev time.
I know that Sync for lemmy is being worked on, but so far I have been using Jerboa and its just ok, not great.
There’s several clients in the works - I’ll be looking at Sync for Lemmy, as I was a customer of Sync for Reddit.

See https://join-lemmy.org/apps/ for available apps.
Unfortunately that page is missing a lot of options, I don’t know who’s managing it but it would be nice if it was updated
Perhaps you might volunteer?
People have already been much more diligent than I, if you are looking for some inspiration, such as here: https://lemmy.world/post/465785 - hope this helps
