the problem is mobile, using browser there sucks
Try using wefwef.app It’s a great mobile browser friendly way to access Lemmy.
@atomWood @MaxElFantasma Recently renamed to Vger I think. https://vger.app
No it’s renamed to Voyager, vger is just the url
Ha, a Star Trek reference, I like it.
Oh, you’re totally right. I hadn’t noticed the change.
This is really great, thank you very much!
I like Jerboa, but I have two lemmy accounts, and this will be a great improvement for browsing my second account.
Heck, I’m even using Voyager on my “desktop setup” iPad!
You can install Firefox Nightly and setup an addon collection on the FF website and use pretty much all desktop addons on your mobile Firefox browser. Then you can install TamperMonkey and search GreasyFork for custom usercripts that add enhancements to the website.
So, no, it’s not a problem.
Good advice but too smug for my taste. I give this post a C- and a downvote.
Thanks for the feedback.
Or, I could just hit download in the play store and sign in. It’s great you can do that. Not everyone wants to go through that effort though.
Or I could install Voyager and have a better user experience in 5 seconds. I love Firefox but the mobile experience is highly dependent on the care a site puts into their mobile site.
DuckDuckGo is magical.
I’m using memmy on iOS, it’s still on TestFlight: https://github.com/Memmy-App/memmy (click on “join the group”)
Memmy’s on the App Store now. It does still have a TestFlight if there are any spots available but the app store’s version is currently up to date.
Thanks, I didn’t know that 😃
Been real happy with Memmy. It’s getting closer to Apollo every day
Yeah just a few things different but overall the aesthetic is very pleasing. Took forever for me to figure out how to mark a comment as “read” to get rid of the badges (slide left).
I also really love the ability to pick a hex code for the accent color.
Theres also an official release in the app store if you don’t want test flight version.
!memmy@lemmy.ml kicks ass 💯
I use wefwef.app/Voyager on FF. I don’t believe ublock does anything though since its not an Ad based service
Ublock will let you block just about anything, for instance if you’re seeing too many posts from a specific instance ex: @leddit.danmark.party, this filter will block the entire instance lemmy.world##.post-listing:has-text(@leddit.danmark.party)

Can’t save comments so replying to save this
Ironic. Apps let you save comments lol
I’m using Memmy and I don’t see how to save them
Maybe that app hasn’t included it. Connect for Lemmy has it, though.
Ah thunder does let me save comments
uBlock Origin doesn’t do anything in this case, but it’s more of a general statement of my browsing setup
I’ve been switching between those two as well. Theres a couple features I prefer on wefwef but in general the memmy app seems smoother
On mobile, I tried FFox and Chrome… Worked like garbage. I switched to Connect and I am happy now.
What exactly is the problem with browser. Do people just have a high expectation of a platform, or am I just too used to the browser experience?
I think it may be down to the UI, for example I preferred Relay for Reddit over the other offerings because the UI just felt more natural to me and that of course always going to be down to the individual user
I was using Connect until I have found that there are trackers(via DuckDuckGo app) in it from Facebook. Trackers are common in apps, but if there are options available which give same experience without trackers, I will choose those options.
Give wefwef.app a try in your mobile browser.
Jerboa on Android is pretty solid imo
kbin on iOS is my ‘app’ of choice, at least thus far.
kbin on android+firefox is smooth af as well
How many alternatives do you have for kbin on mobile?
There’s one beta app called Artemis and the testing slots for ios are all full. Not sure about android.
I prefer Firefox and AdNauseum. I like seeing how the false ad clicks add up over time.
Does Adnauseum actually work?
Connect is at a stage where it could rival those now defunct mature 3PA Reddit apps
I mostly browse on desktop, but wasn’t a big fan of the main site, so I made my own one called Alexandrite that I think is more convenient to use. I use Voyager on my phone and I’m excited for Sync to release.
If anyone’s curious here’s one of my announcement posts, and another that includes mod tools.
I want features the web UI doesn’t have, like an inage viewer with zoom gestures and a direct file share button.
Thunder has that, and as a foss app I will be able to add more stuff that I want, like easy toggling or dismissing of read posts, and more.
The trick for me has been diversification. Firefox replaced RIF.
I mean, you don’t really need any addons if you’re using the lemmy web, so I’d recommend going with addon-less bromite or “Webapps” from F-droid so u get better performance
