How are you accessing Lemmy now? Browser or app?
Hi fellow sync-ers,
Having joined Lemmy recently, I have been having a ton of fun. However accessing Lemmy through my mobile browser has been an awful experience, similar to my past Reddit experience till I found Sync.
I'm not sure how much longer I can tolerate the browser experience, and am hesitating jumping on a app. Where's your head at about this?

I've been on Connect and has been 8/10 so far. Gonna dual use with liftoff after seeing the comments.
I did a 5 minute ctr+F to see which were the most popular apps/ interfaces. Not sorted by pos/neg, just mentions.
- wefwef/ voyager - 46
- connect - 43
- Liftoff - 33
- Jerboa - 23
- Thunder - 16
- Firefox - 13

I've been using Liftoff on Android. It's way better than mobile browsing but no where near the same level as Sync. Biggest pain points are searching and subscribing to new instances as well as an insane amount of cache builds up and never clears on its own.
Currently I can't load my subscribed instances but I think that's a temporary bug...
I am eagerly and patiently awaiting Sync for Lemmy release.
I also had the issue with not being able to load subscribed instances. I think someone said it was tied to a forced logout of some sort that happened. I resolved it by removing the accounts from Liftoff, then re-adding them. Afterwards, it worked fine.
That fixed my issue. Thank you very much!
