  • I’ve tried jeroba, liftoff and thunder. My experience with jeroba is mostly negative. It’s not good enough to be a full replacement for using a web browser and with the new update it crashes on my older, not bleeding edge phone. It can’t even open lemmy links people post half the time.

    Thundar is ok. I’m not a fan of its interface but at least you can actually browse communities you aren’t subscribed to.

    The third one I’ve tried is Liftoff and it’s the best one I’ve seen so far. It’s about the same in terms of quality as Boost for reddit. You can explore new communities in other instances, have more than one active account logged in to be able to simultaneously use different instances and best of all there’s a search.

    There’s this one called lightweight music server. It’s basically just a glorified in-browser vlc. It has playlists and remembers what you were doing if you close the browser but it’s not possible to move songs up or down in the playlist. You can add songs to the front or back of the playlist as well as remove songs from the playlist but there’s no dragging up or down. For me it’s still the more desirable choice vs using Spotify and either paying a monthly fee or listening to ads. I know there are anti ad hacks but they always break after every update and are hard to install.
