I’m currently using Sync even though it’s closed source because it was still a really well-made app, but it seems to be abandonware now. Jerboa is great and it’s actively developed, but IMO it’s also the ugliest one.

Can you recommend any of the other FOSS ones, especially one that handles our glorious emotes well?

    The problem is seemingly it’s been 5 months since anybody’s touched the code, not just 5 months since the last release. There are issues that have been open for weeks or months without any of the devs even replying to them. It’s not a great look, at least… The core Lemmy project is still in pretty active development, clients need to keep up with that. I know they’re hobby projects and the devs have no obligation to work on it, but I can’t really trust an app that might break for good at the next Lemmy release.

      Oh, I see what you’re saying. Yeah, I didn’t know about any of that. I don’t even know where to see that stuff.

      Man, I really hope they keep it going eventually but I’ll just sink with the ship as long as possible, personally. Probably eventually jump to Jerboa to support the native app.
