As a new Lemmy user, I’m curious where most people use it from - Is it web, mobile, desktop app?
I’m using Photon and it looks pretty good. At least better than the default web one.
From home mostly. Sometimes from public transport, or the shitter at work.
I had bought the ad-free version of Boost before the Redditpocalypse, so I got the ad-free Lemmy Boost and have found it to be pretty great.
When I’m at my computer, I use the theme that looks like a dark mode of old reddit.
Mobile, in browser with desktop mode on.
I’m weird about apps. It’s not even a privacy thing really, I just never got into them as a concept.
Right now, from Emacs.
On mobile with Voyager. I’ve tried other clients, but I always come back to Voyager.
Voyager. I’ve been extremely happy with it.
VSCode extension.
My phone in the woods in the foothills of southern Appalachia
Toilet.
In fairness, the internet is a series of tubes…
You think that’s bad, you should see the uriness
Your mom’s room.
Voyager App.
Almost exclusively.Same. On PC I use a web browser, but it’s so much slower and less polished than Voyager.
Voyager rulesss
F-Droid version of Jerboa, and apparently I’m the only one? 😛
You’re not alone! I prefer using a desktop web browser, but when I’m on my phone it’s F-Droid Jerboa.
I use the default interface in browser primarily, but I use Boost on my phone as well as Voyager.
I’m an old school geek. To me, an “app” is basically software running on a phone (in that context), or perhaps software running on a computer (although typically I’d use “application” there, but it depends. A small “application” might be an “app”). I know this is not universal. But for example, to me, reddit or Facebook or Lemmy is not an “app”, it is a “website” that you can access via a browser or an app.

Also old nerd here. To me that would be an “applet.” I miss applets.
Sync for Lemmy
I was a long time Sync user (used it for years on Reddit before Lemmy) but it has been abandoned by the Dev. It hasn’t been updated since Mar 2024. I got sick of all the little stuff that didn’t work right and ended up moving to Voyager.
I have Voyager too I prefer the UI of Sync
Honestly, me too. I just didn’t want to deal with the issues anymore.
Browser. I hate apps, the greedy spying ones spoiled it for them all.
