The only reason why we all used third party apps for Reddit, is because their app and website is abhorrent trash. It’s great to have a choice, but Lemmy’s website is smooth to use. I know it’s mind blowing not to use a app for everything in 2023 but Lemmy just works.
personally it’s more convenient if there’s a mobile app, so I’m using Liftoff right now, until Sync, Artemis or Boost release 😀
But why though? What does an app get you that you can’t get by pinning the site to your home screen?
Apps are more customizable. The UI also tends to be better. The web app is fine but i find trying to upvote anything closes a post i just opened. Personally, i like seeing full images of things as I scroll by. So something like a webclient isnt very convenient and rather tedious. I’m using a whole bunch pf userscripts on my desktop to improve the pc experience, apps generally do that for me on android.
In the end, it’s user preference. I prefer Jerboa, Liftoff, and Thunder atm.
