I’m on Android and currently using:

Jerboa for Lemmy

Official Mastodon app

Fedilab for Friendica

Official Funkwhale app

P2Play for Peertube

I haven’t gotten around to exploring the other fediverse projects yet, but I will.

So what is everyone else using? Any good Android apps I missed? What’s good on iOS? Any good desktop/Windows/Linux/MacOS apps worth checking out?

Any other promising apps in development worth keeping an eye on?

Edit: spelling/formatting

    I’ve got two for Lemmy.

    mlem is currently being developed for iOS with around ~20 contributors. It’s in early open beta, and I’m psyched because there’s supposed to be a massive update between now and tomorrow.

    memmy for iOS looks promising. Really intuitive ‘swipe to upvote/downvote/reply’ feature and browses similarly to Apollo. It’s very barebones right now, the project is just a few days old and there’s one developer (as far as I know).

        It’s the same as Apollo.

        If you swipe right part way, it’ll be an upvote. If you swipe right all the way, it’ll be a downvote.

        The color of the arrow will change from Green to Orange when you cross a certain point, and you’ll feel a ‘click’ in the haptics of your phone. Release your swipe to enter your vote.

        It’s very intuitive.

        I’m not a Memmy user but on wefwef there’s no downvote button, you have to swipe beyond upvote to do so. Maybe it’s similar to Memmy that way.

      Same here. I bounce between the two comparing them though I’ve been using memmy more.

      Both are solid, if very early, apps.

        I’ve been using memmy more too because it’s more compact and the swiping feature is something I enjoy. Though mlem is supposed to have a big update today, so I’m super psyched to see how it’s progressing.

        I’m sure many more apps will appear in the coming weeks.

        Memmy should be on Android too, but I’m not sure where to find it.

    Lemmy has been the best fit for me so far, and tbh the Firefox browser experience has been way better than Jerboa. Following links to other instances still isn’t intuitive, but i couldn’t figure out how to do it at all on the app.

    I’m not yet using Jerboa for Lemmy, it always gives timeout when I liking or posting on lemmyworld. May be becaues I’m in southeast asia and lemmyworld on germany, the latency goes beyond what jerboa tolerate. :(

    As for mastodon-like service (I’m rarely use mastodon account but use other server app instead), I use Subway Tooter. It is packed with useful features.

    As for search and quote post, it is hot debate among mastodon community but other apps like pleroma, akkoma, calckey, misskey implement it without too much fuss. You should check them. Especially calckey and misskey. Their features and ui is neat.

    For Mastodon-compatible services I use Tusky. It’s the suggested app for my backend server. On PC I am happy with Elk. For Lemmy … I don’t know … The mobile view looks fine.

    Tusky just got an update a few days ago and works wonderfully fine. GoToSocial and Elk are both alpha software.
