I go back and forth between Jerboa and PWA (from Chromium). I find both missing features I really like, but that just might be from the features to which I got accustomed from Slide and Infinity and not features that are must-haves. On Jerboa, the most annoying thing to me is during commenting, where the cursor jumps to somewhere else in the paragraph and deletes a word. It's very annoying. I thought it was my keyboard, so I switched, but nope. Maybe an incompatibility with autocorrect features. Whatever. Lemmy is still growing up, while Reddit is 18.
Actually i use the progressive web app on mobile and that works like a charm! Unlike Reddit, Lemmys Webinterface is quiet nice. Nevertheless I would love to see some of Reddits 3rd party clients to switch to Lemmy! Like Invidious ๐คฉ
Here's something that I don't understand on Lemmy when using the web: whenever I visit a community hosted on a different Lemmy instance, I'm not logged in and can't subscribe. That appears to be only working in the app (Jerboa).
I think I'm missing something fundamental here, because it's probably not intended to have dozens of accounts โ one at each instance.
that is a downside of the web-version. However you can enter the link in the search bar of end search for the link on your instance.
Jerboa on Android, Mlem on iOS (as they are both the only options for now)
Its eternity now! Damn they fixed the bugs, somehow made the UI fresher and its now seemingly the best!
Lets see, maybe some bugs will appear
