I’m back! This is a continuation of my series on platform-specific hidden gem apps that you have discovered that are the best in their class for your usecase.
We’ve done iOS+MacOS so far so lets get universal and share our Android hidden gems.
For mine, I would say NewPipe for YouTube… Lets do it!
Edit: Please try to avoid apps that cannot be purchased (subscription apps) since it is important that the creator cannot cut you off once you’ve taken time/effort/money to integrate it into your workflow and dependance. No Apollos, which have that fatal flaw + relying on an external API that they additionally cannot gurantee
Read You, probably the best RSS reader available on Android. The bad: still in beta and no sync with Feedly (yet).
Sync for Lemmy, also the best client for Lemmy in Android by far. Design and user experience are delightful. Bad: ads with an expensive subscription. Good: with adguard DNS ads disappear.
What do you think about Voyager?
Great app but maybe too similar to the rest of Lemmy apps.
I mean, they’re kinda all based on or inspired by Apollo, the 3rd party Reddit app. That was arguably the biggest most violent stcking point for many new Lemmy users
Voyager is the closest carbon-copy and therefore many’s fave (certainly mine ;)
