It’s the same as with Linux, GIMP, LibreOffice or OnlyOffice. Some people are so used to their routines that they expect everything to work the same and get easily pissed when not.

      I’m personally waiting for Slide for Lemmy to be released

      Liftoff is what I’m using and probably what I’ll stick with until Boost or Sync for Lemmy is released. Hell, I might stick with it even after that. Development is progressing quickly and it’s the smoothest out of any of the apps I’ve tried.

    • I keep switching between Liftoff and Connect because they both have some issues that are resolved in the other.

      Connect seems to work better with showing all federated content than Liftoff, but Liftoff allows multiple instances to be logged in at once. Connect has notifications, and Liftoff does not. Liftoff has more user-centered features like actual profile pages that show a background image, bio, and avatar; connect does not.

      Neither one have any tools for moderation, though. I am now a mod for Humor (BTW, come post! Let’s make it better than /r/funny ever was!) and I’ve only been able to do actual mod things on the website itself, which is tedious to do on mobile.

      I still can’t figure out why I can upvote posts in Memmy but not in Liftoff. I’m Liftoff it keeps responding that I need to be logged into the server but Memmy just lets me upvote. It’s definitely something I am doing wrong but showcases the immense value of app choice.

        I made a post on the Liftoff community precisely because it renders it unusable if I cannot interact with (almost) anything that’s shown to me

        Have you checked that you’re browsing from your instance? Liftoff has different feeds for different instances and if you go to a post through an instance you don’t have an account on, you won’t be able to vote.

        Just go to the homepage and select the feed from the drop-down at the top on an instance you have an account in. I used to face the same problem until I realised what’s going wrong.
